Gah...

I have to get up at six thirty tomorrow. Ick. My dad and I have to drive over half the state to do some errands that, apparently, cannot be conducted in one of the cities that are only half an hour away. But first we have to leave at seven thirty so he can get a haircut. I don't even know why he's dragging me along. Maybe he's trying to goad me into getting a professional haircut again.

My mom told me that on July 4th, I have to make a choice between A) spending the day with my dad at some airshow in Big Rapids, or B) go with her to Ludington to visit my annoying relatives. I almost think Option B is worse, because I really don't like my family. A rundown for who shall be at the "gathering":

- My aunt (smothering and snooty)
- My uncle (not bad)
- My cousin Melissa (she thinks I am the abomination of the family and treats me like I'm six)
- My cousin Sebastian (he just finished law school and is OK when we're alone, but is otherwise intolerable)
- His psycho girlfriend Alex (I am actually closer to her in age than she is to Sebastian. It is weird having a twenty-six year old cousin dating a girl only a year and a half older than me.)
- A bunch of Sebastian's idiot law school friends that either hit on me constantly or treat me like a baby.

In a nutshell, I would prefer to avoid this little holiday celebration. But I also do not want to spend a day at a hot, sunny airshow watching a bunch of planes zooming around while I melt from the hot pavement and freak out because all the people are too close to me. Preferably, I would like to stay at home and sleep and get some work done. But apparently that's not a possibility.

Help.

help, the fourth of july, ramble, family
