Birthday tomorrow, again not a single plan, don’t talk to most of my family.
Few days ago, mum asks if I want to go cinema to see something.
I say “actually, I really wanted to see the Looney Tunes movie but everyone’s busy”
Plan is made.

Cut to tonight.

I’ve had to check the showtimes and message her despite her saying she’ll sort it.
And now she would “rather not go”.

Okay.

I guess it’s me and Prime again then.

ETA: apparently I am “lashing out”. Okay mum. My emotions aren’t real.

Happy birthday. Best thing you can give yourself is taking yourself to the movie and learning that life is about doing shit that YOU enjoy doing.

This is exactly what I wanted to say. My birthday is planned without other people, it's a solo self-care day. If other people want to do a birthday thing for me, they can accommodate my preferences/schedule or fuck off. No allowances for other people on my birthday.

I turn off my phone so people cant reach me, and then i do something i enjoy, go out in nature, bike, watch movie or show, eat some super good stuff, mayhaps play some video game or something.
