Dreading this birthday and a vent
10 years ago
Beware of Flying Pickles for they are immortal and cannot be eaten ...and every so often they might nibble on your soul :p
Ok so My birthday is on Jan 19th and I'll be 25
And if my current track record continues it will probably suck
Originally my mo wanted to take us to the beach for My 25th and Dad's 60th Birthday but that fell through because they wanted me to plan everything but would not give me any useful information. They wouldn't tell me what our price rage was, they just kept pressuring me to find cheaper and cheaper hotels but if I dared to look at anything that wasn't a 4 star or 5 star hotel mom would throw a fit. I think they wanted a 4 or 5 star hotel with 2 bedrooms for under 100 a night on MLK day weekend. The only deal I could find was a stay 3 nights get 2 free deal but then dad fussed because that was too many nights.. and basically I could not find anything to make everyone happy and it is all my fault -_-
So then mom wanted to get me a B-day gift .. and that is when the whole, hunt for a premade head thing happened, I couldn't find anything I wanted and finally convinced her to just get me some needle felting supplies. She put so much unnecessary stress on me during the hunt for a head though and just wouldn't let up. The hotel and the head thing were stupidly stressful and irritating considering i had actually made birthday list of things she could have gotten me, but apparently the things that I would actually like to have are just not good enough.
Then tonight happened
We were chatting about normal bs, like the cable bill here and what the birthday plans were supposed to be. I thought we decided after the beach trip fell through to just get together and eat at a restaurant that I like up here in g-boro. But no that isn't good enough either, she either wants us to come down there or she and dad are coming up here and while they will go out to eat with us she basically threatened to come in out apartment and check how clean it is and then she went on a lovely tirade. This time though, I followed my friends advise and was civil and after I said "Stop" I just turned off chat and left her to her own devices ... so... yeah when I went back and checked the chat is was quite full but she eventually puttered out.

I'm so tired of this every year
Last year my dad stormed out of the restaurant
it is always worse on "milestone years" too , like on my 16th Birthday, when my boyfriend back then excused himself to go use the restroom, my dad though it would be a great idea to tell me that all I would ever amount to was a barefoot, pregnant, housewife. I'm so freaking stressed and anxious, I don't even want a birthday at this point, I just want it to go away.
Sorry if punctuation sucks,..

She is actually making my birthday all about her , normally I could see some mom's doing this with the whole having pushed their kid out of their body on that day so long ago, but, I'm adopted.
This is what is getting to me
"Ash it's probably time for your period because it's always been this way right at your birthday or anything..you get to feeling down..please don't ruin a good time for your birthday..i really want to see you and you know I live you..so please don't say things to hurt me and mess this birthday up..we could have a very good time if you'll only let us"
And this
"You know that I love you more than anything in the world..just try to be nice to me and love me back.."
I hope there was something positive. Happy birthday.
