Holiday Woes
Nov. 9th, 2017 01:12 pmHaven't seen my father in about 2 years, and trying to coordinate with my brother on getting up there is like pulling fucking teeth. He wants to leave in the late afternoon on Friday, which sucks because dad likes us to get up there as early as possible so he has more time to spend with us. I can't drive this year due to the unreliability of my car, so I can't put my foot down :(
My dad will be upset. My brother wants to "chill" before we go, he wants to "relax a little". I tell him it's the least we can do to make him a little happy after not seeing him for so long. He comes back with "I'll leave at 6 if I want!" He doesn't even work full time and will have all of thanksgiving to chill because we don't have plans this year. My mom, who usually orchestrates Thanksgiving was invited to her cousin's place so we're free.
As a side note, really dreading Christmas time, because I don't have the monies for gifts. Shitty there has to be a feeling of dread, but this commercial holiday breeds this shit.
