Going to the UK with a majority of family for the Christmas holiday. That's not the bitching part. The bitching is my mother. I wish she would finally grow up and learn to share vacation planning. I've always dreaded family vacations because of her. Since I was a kid when my siblings and I would try to help plan vacations by telling her about an event or something else that seemed interesting that was in the area we were going to, she would ALWAYS make excuses of why we couldn't do that because we have no time or flat out, "No, we're not gonna do any activities you guys wanna do. We're only gonna do what I wanna do." I gave up on family vacations years ago and decided to give it another chance, but mom is still hogging all the vacation planning basically making it her trip and we're all along for the ride(even though we're all paying for our own plane tickets and other expenses). Hell, my brother found an event going on in Glasgow that's happening while we're visiting and he suggested that me, him, our sister and the spouses go to it and give the parents a romantic night to themselves. Mom, still acting childish, literally put her foot down and said "no, y'all don't have time to do that. We should do *insert other activity instead." WTF is wrong with this woman? She loves doing date nights with my dad and this would be a great opportunity to give them private time. I guess it's because SHE didn't plan it herself. Fuck it, I'm gonna do a few things on my own with the girlfriend. If she doesn't like it she can kick rocks.
Not sure what we're doing for Thanksgiving yet. I'm sure some shit will hit the fan. Let's get ready to rock out with our cocks out!
