No Title Given
Good god, it's been how long since I updated? Hmmph. I don't even really want to be updating now, but I thought I should at least try so I can avoid what happened last time.
I haven't been updating because everything I would want to talk about involves complaining - something that, for a very dramatic change, I am trying to avoid. It all pertains to the trip in Florida, and how disappointed in the way it is turning out. The way it's looking, we'll only have 4 full days to spend in Fl, which, in my opinion, is basically not worth going. Both Lindsay and Carl do not want to leave after Graduation, because they have family driving/flying in to see them. It's understandable, but it's costing us one less day in Fl, which really has me unhappy. I could deal with 5 days, but 4... It's a freaking 4 day trip down there. It just doesn't seem worth it when it is thought of that way. And I'm trying to pressure Lindsay to ask her aunt to move the trip back a week, but she's timid, so I had to offer that I would pay half whatever her aunt would be losing by canceling and rescheduling. In reality, I think that is a lot better, considering that the best alternative that Lindsay could come up with would be to spend a couple nights in Myrtle Beach on the way back from Fl, which is going to cost SO much additional money that I know none of them will be able to afford the additional weight. It was unrealistic. I want to blame Lindsay a lot for this stuff, because even though she does pull through (after a long period of waiting, that is) she still doesn't seem to plan ahead. I mean, the day that Lindsay's aunt was making the reservations, me and Sandy were already talking about leaving after graduation... You'd think Lindsay would have said something then. Or that maybe she would have mentioned it sometime in the month that followed after one of the MANY times that I brought it up. Last week was the first I had heard of this, which has really depressed me ever since. I always hated my family's vacations, because they would only want to spend 3-4 days at a location, when all I wanted was to stay just a couple of days more... And now this vacation is going to be like that, too. I can't stand that. I'd almost rather not go then have to do that... Actually, I'm really wishing I wasn't. If it stays the dates that it is, I am going to dread going.
Damnit. That was exactly what I was trying to avoid. Now I am just more wound up and disappointed as ever.
