I have not seen the relatives yet. Fingers crossed that they want to do this on a night I have to work. Next Tuesday and/or Wednesday would be awesome because not only do I have to work, but I will also be well fed and out late. The relatives are assholes. The politics, of course. And also, the non-politics. My mother's big on the *family* thing even though her brothers treat her like an idiot. Most of them don't care that I exist, which is perfectly fine with me. I'd rather not care about their existence, either. One year, I decided to see if they'd talk to me at all if I didn't initiate. I spent three hours in the same room with the group, less than 10 other people. I was not spoken to once. To top it off, my mother is a horrible gift-giver and if I don't tell her exactly what it is I want, she won't even come close. You know, I'd like to be pleasantly surprised occasionally. At least we don't bother wrapping anything up. At least the Christmas music ends soon and everyody will stp with the bullshit that everything is wonderful during this time of year.

I avoided all relatives other than my mother today. The relatives are showing up at the end of the week. The cheery on top is that there is absolutely no alcohol at any of these events. RC and Moon Pie fucked around with this message at 05:45 on Dec 26, 2022 |
