34 | thursday thanksgiving

Waiting to get picked up by cab for physiotherapy. You have to be ready an hour and fifteen minutes before your appointment and they can't give you a specific time you'll be picked up - only a call five minutes before you have to be ready. Very stressful to begin with, I recall - but at this point, I've gotten used to it.



Had a tough, but very important talk with my girlfriend this morning, re: my parents and I think I have to take control of this situation and not wait until Monday, when they're due to come. I have to tell them, I don't have the spoons for them to bring my uncle along and that I find it rude as hell that I wasn't asked before they invited him along to visit me in my home.

So, I will call them tomorrow and have the talk. Get it over with before the weekend, so I know what to expect next week and hopefully, be able to enjoy my writ-athon in peace and quiet, mentally.



My girlfriend is an angel, so patient and understanding with me, but also pushing me to make the right decisions for myself at the same time. I'm eternally grateful that she is there to support me. I could never make these calls with my parents without her by my side.



Now, the fact that I have to make them in the first place... that's on my parents, not on me. I'm just trying to take my own needs into consideration.
