Thank you Finlet and Spore!~ >w< I will! Because they're the only people who usually don't let me down! [and they're not people!]
SEriously. .. prepare for a slight rant.
I don't put a big emphasis on my birthday. I don't tell people ahead of time. I don't ask/tell my friends what i want for my b-day [I tell myparents, because they ask and I know they'll be getting me a gift anyways, but.. I don't ever expect one from anyone else.]
All I want is for my sisters/family to get together so we can all hang out.
Well, my mohter asked if we could get together on teh 27th [yesterday] instead of today, since it was Saturday and that way people might stay later/longer and we have more time. I was kind of iffy on it, since.. it's not really my b-day, and I had the same thing happen to me last year. [so I haven't celebrated my bday on my bday in two years.] But all the same, I said fine.
And my mom always makes us the dinner of our choice for our bday. I do not have a favorite food, so it's hard for me to pick. So I just asked for pizza and wings. But I wanted a specific pizza from a place that has the. best. pizza. in. town. Well, dad bought it last sunday so he didn't have to drive out today. Plus he got peperoni on it, which I Don't like. And even though you peal it off, you can still taste it slightly. Not really the dinner I wanted, when I Wanted, so I was mad over it.. But fine, wahtever, got over it. WE're having the pizza we normally get today and Leonardis again on Tuesday since my sister said she'd buy it for me.
WE ended up having hotdogs/burgers and salads yesterday. [which, they made me my fav. salad, so I was okay with it.] We all figured it's easier with everyone coming over.
WELL, I have three sisters. [My youngest one Spore and Saf met, and she's so my fav. sis. WE're close.] Spore and Saf also met Paige, my niece, who is the daughter of my oldest sister. Then I have my other sister, Lindsay, who has Kyle [the baby I watch on Fridays.]
Anyways. I'm really close to Paige. [hell, I'm the favorite aunt to all my nieces and nephews [one niece, 2 nephews.] And I like having everyone over on my birthday. sisters, parents, Granmother, neightbor.
I know I Called my gran last minute on Friday [at around 3], but I didn't even get a call back saying she couldn't come. Shrugged it off, let it go.
I get home from work yesterday at 1, go on FB and my sister Tabs, PAiges mother, tells me she won't be around tll 4:30 and that Paige will not be there since she's letting her sleep over a friends house. Tabs said she was leaving early also because she has homework. Ow?
You couldn't at least bring Paige till you leave! She left at around 8. It would have been fine. I hope she knows I was dissapointed, because I look forward to having everyone around. I love my Paige, so it was pretty upsetting. I Always go out of hte way to make sure I'm there for all of her kids and her birthday..
Well, then Tabs shows up at 5 [with my nephew, Paul surprisingly! He's 16, so I sort of understand if he doesn't want to come. But I Told him to bring REsident evil so we can play. I didn't end up playing, watched him and my brother in law play, which I'm okay with.] Tabs walks in while we're sitting raound the kitchen table all chit chatting and is all like "What are we doing just sitting here? Come on, let's move! Let's eat! Don't have a lot of time!"
Okay. This is my birthday. And though I'm not one to care, I do not want it rushed! I invited everyone to hang out, not to eat and leave. Thank you very much. I was so tempted to tell her to go home then if she's in such a rush.
Anyways, it miffed me quite a bit. Sort of made me feel irrelivant. When Marissa, my youngest sister came home from work, I told her about it. She wasn't fully surprised, but I Guess I Shouldn't have to be either. But it sucks since I'm always the fall back sister/the one who's there to help when someone needs it. So I feel taken advantage of.
Eh. I got my boys though. And my girls. <3 And you guys. xD Going to see a movie with one of my longest standing friends at least today. I'll come home to sew some more. It's crunch time! XD
