Am going on holiday on Friday. Having mixed feelings. Will be spending a few days in Unhinged Mother Figure's London flat, a day of relaxation in Bath with Very Calm Brother Figure and then off to Paris and Madrid. Did I mention entire holiday will be spent with UMF?? If not -- there it is -- cause for mixed feelings.
Am debating whether or not to drag along laptop to chronicle events of holiday, as am sure will not be without drama, or at v. least, pining thoughts for lovely J.
At least trip will be sans Neo-Alcoholic Cheating Father, and hopefully without mention of him as well. Turns out, UMF and NACF have agreed to marriage counseling. Indeed.
Can forsee therapy session:
UMF: This isn't working. I give up.
Therapist: We haven't even begun...
UMF: Yes, but... well, he's a fool as you can see.
NACF: Woman...
UMF: Yes? Something to say? (to therapist) See? Hopeless I tell you.
Therapist: Indeed.
