About twice a year, my grandmother hosts these stupid-ass family reunions. I've never enjoyed these things. I really, REALLY don't like my dad's side of the family. Holy shit. I'm sorry, grandmother, but my idea of a good time is NOT a house full of busybody rednecks.
I just found out today that there's going to be one tomorrow. SHIT. I usually get about a week's notice...
Last year, my dad's cousin started mercilessly making fun of my social anxiety. He's such an ass. Then, his godawful children barged into the room I was hiding in and started destroying all my stuff. I cannot STAND those kids. I highly doubt anyone has ever disciplined them in their entire lives.
I'm always the only person anywhere near my age there. And that sucks. A lot. There is a boy who's about a year younger than me, but he never goes. (And I don't blame him!) His younger sister always does, though, and I guess she's pretty cool for a ten-year-old... But I don't really want to spend all day hanging out with a fifth grader in a loud house full of screeching children and Bible-humping adults, you know? Especially since she always plays with the bad children. Oh, god, the bad children... x_x There's a girl who's like 18, but she's usually having to take care of her baby niece or sister or something.
Last year, I brought my laptop and hid in a guest room. I was safe for about thirty minutes. D: One of the little bastards tried to SIT on my laptop. Ugh. And then I was treated to little eight-year-olds spewing anti-gay propaganda. I'm not sure what brought that on. Probably something on my laptop. All I remember was them doing it. And god, it pissed me off, but I couldn't tell them to shut their fat, ignorant little mouths...
Then, when my grandma held another one, I put my foot down for the first time in all my fourteen years and refused to go. She was aghast, and I had to listen to her piss and moan about it for a week. ("Super Duck, what's more important? Your wants or my neeeeds?")
I'm telling my dad as soon as he gets home that I'm not going. :| Of course, then I'll just be a horrible bitch because my aunt and uncle from California are there. I want to see them, just not tomorrow with all the bullshit going on. D: They are actually civilized.
What should I do? This whole thing is one gigantic DO NOT WANT. :(
