Pppfffttttttt Wife is asleep. Im wide awake trying to think of ways to persuade her to let me stay in bed tomorrow instead of going to the inlaws. They are great but I can't be ARSED with Christmas unless it is to punch fuck out every member of my homophobic family that disowned me. Dont want to spend Christmas day pretending I'm enjoying it. Want to sleep through it, wake up on 1st of January or something. CHRISTMAS SUCKS AND SHOULD BE BANNED
Aw. Your in-laws sound really nice. Maybe you could imagine your family heading out to sea on an ice-flow without their jackets while you're warm and toasty inside with people who value you and care about your happiness. Don't let thoughts of them ruin what is bound to be really nice time.
I tend to think of the terrible feelings people that are so close minded must live with on a moment-by-moment basis. The amount of closed-off non-love maybe all the prison you need to imagine them in while you enjoy your in-laws.
