> Just venting here and dreading the holidays. Heering from friends and family members who are normies talking excitedly about travel, parties, dinnners and other get-together plans. I just wish it would all be over. Like I could wake up and it would be Jan 2. I just can't relate to people who love to socialize, go out to dinner all the time, travel all over the place. I just want to be home watching Star Trek or reading. I loathe holidays, events, celebrations and those who tell me they have a ball at them are really getting on my nerves. Of course, I'm jealous of this lifestyle, on some level, but also think the bane of being alone or isolating is overrated.
I'm not antisocial but, I've got to go to a Family Thanksgiving Dinner, drive four hours to get there and spend the day with over 50 people that I can't stand to be around for more than 5 minutes. My mother is the original travel agent for guilt trips and the rest of them are just overbearing, sharp tongued a**holes. I'll be getting a refill on my xanax before I go, that's for sure. I might mention the only reason I'm going is my Grandmother is very Ill and she will be there maybe for the last time and she is the sweetest woman who ever lived.
