I'm sick and in confinement to bed since the 11th. I'm bored out of my mind because of it. The only plus so far is that I finally have some ideas about NaNoWriMo. Some ideas besides "Why the hell I'm doing it?!" )))

My father's birthday was several days ago and my grandma (his mother) visited us. I was listening for almost the whole evening her going on and on about how my father is 49 and still has no granchildren.
In fact he has granchildren - two of them. My sister (actually I'm the only child and she's my cousin, but we grew up together, I was living with their family for several years in my childhood, so I usually refer to her as my sister) has a daughter and a son. But my grandma haven't been speaking to any of her relatives except me and my parents since 2004, so Kate's children are not an option for her.
God, I'm so tired of her always talking about how I need to find a good boy, to get married and so on and so on! When I was dating Natalie sometimes I thought I would come out to my family just to stop her asking "Do you have a boyfriend?" every time we spoke.
The irony is that now I actually have someone who may be called a boyfriend, but she wouldn't know about it because for me it's rather friends-with-benifits relationship. And even I know better than bringing someone and saying "Hey, it's Stan. We work together, hang out together and sometimes have sex."

Yay! You’re going to do NanoWriMo too?! Sweet! I reactivated my account the other day but forgot to make a post about it. I shall do it later :)

God, I'm so tired of her always talking about how I need to find a good boy, to get married and so on and so on!
And this is exactly why I stay away from family functions when at all possible. I love how people who are rarely ever in my life, love to pass on judgment the few times they come into contact with me. I’m sorry that I am actually happy on my own and don’t need a man to make me content …so lay off of it.

The world isn’t as it used to. A woman doesn’t have to be married (to a man) to be able to survive. We can do very well on our own (or with fuck buddies :D). I wish folks would get that through their heads and stop the stereotypical “OmG you’re 30 and not married, you’re and OLD MAID!” Really? ROFL!

P.S. Hope the confinement ends soon! I must have missed it; what happened? :/

I ran a temperature, so I was weak and because of some manipulations with my knee which had been done before it was better to stay in bed and not to strain it.

I'm really close with my family (and we have a big family) and they all are absolutely cool about how I'm living my life. Only my grandma and my father are probing into my private affairs. I'm 24 for god's sake. 24! It's not my fault that every woman in my family has been married at this age. It doesn't mean that I also should do the same.

You're in bed for a week already and I'm only hearing this now? Did they confiscate your phone? :) What happened?

Although I must admit that I'm glad to hear that things start shaping out with NaNo. :) I'm going to sign up tomorrow (yes, I'm vain like that) and will buddy you, okay?

Oh, and do tell you grandma to fuck the hell off. What she cares about is her own contentment, not your happiness or something. Therefore she has no say in your life.

I was sleeping almost the whole time :)

Well, I'm regulary telling my grandma this but it doesn't work. The good thing I see her only several times in a year.

Oh, and about my Nano - it's going to be a pathetic Mary Sue story but I already love it :)

[jaaaarne]

The evilness of Mary Sues is slightly overrated. ;)

[prudens_mcgonagall]

Nah, Mary Sue is OK, I'm more worried about the pathetic )))

[jaaaarne]

Pathetic is quite okay by me. *gg* I personally do pathetic all the time. *gg*

:) I was SO right about pathetic part with me not being able to type the main character's name properly )))
