Fantasizing about making my family aware of how much easier my life would be if I cut them all out of it. It'd be kind of satisfying to storm out midway through Thanksgiving dinner, but I'm not practiced at the properly dramatic exit, so it'd probably just come off as silly―if you're going to cut ties, do it right! Not showing up in the first place is so tempting though.

Wish me luck as, instead, I try to maintain some kind of relationship with these people 😥
