seriously december is a noisy time in my head. it's a time where i'm always preoccupied with avoidance. avoiding my parents, his parents, everyone. i really want to do what I want to do, but nobody respects that.
every christmas, ch and i want to be alone. in years past, his family has always dominated every xmas. it was always about them, whether it was at grandpa matt's house or at their house in yyc, it was always us and them. and "them" was always the sil too in all her annoying glory. the one year we went to lethbridge, it was a fucking epic. how DARE we go and visit MYYYYY parents and not them. i swear, the world tilted on its axis the day we spent xmas with my family and not them. there was a lot of whining. the sil even tried her best to get us to change our mind by telling us that sheeeeeee was going to be all alone and that she'd have nobody to spend xmas with; her little ploy to get ch to cancel our plans. it was like that last thanksgiving where she went on that mom and dad were leaving her and so i FOOLISHLY volunteered to cook a turkey. that night at dinner she announced that she was having twooooo turkeys that thanksgiving and would be going to mom and dad's the next night...all a ploy. so the year we went to my parents' she tried pulling that stunt and ch bit and told her she could come along. funnily enough, the mil said she'd never leave the sil alone and they werent going anywhere...huh. funny how that is, isnt it?
in 2007 we decided to stay here for xmas and do nothing. we had fun doing our own thing and went to a boxing day party. that wasnt good enough for the inlaws; they had to make sure they got us at xmas and bought a cruise for us for the next year over xmas. this year we are trying hard to stay here and the sil talked to ch last night and told him that mommy is making a turkey on the 25 for whoever shows up, and when he expressed disinterest and said we were not sure what we were doing, she switched gears and said that she then would have mommy and daddy here and cook a turkey and we could go to her house. for fuck's sake. so apparently he said that we werent sure WHERE we'd be on xmas and to not do that. well, we'll see about that. i'm pretty sure she will do what she can (read: MANIPULATE) to make sure she gets xmas with ch.
the one year that we did see my parents, she told me, ''you just have to understand: i havent had a xmas without ch in 26 yrs"...fuck off you stupid c*nt.
