Why today sucks

In 2 hours from now i will be making my way to Penn Station to catch a train on the LIRR to have dinner with my grandparents plus one. Seeing my g-parents isn't the part I'm not happy about. I love them and I make a point to call them a few times a week, and I visit them a few times a month. I have issues with the fact that this needs to be done on a Thursday night and that they need to drag along a plus one for me.

Thursday is my absoulte favorite night to go out. All my friends go out on Thursdays, there is no bridge and tunnel crew on Thursdays, and the best partys in my opinion are hosted on Thursdays. Sad to say, tonight I will not be pregaming at the Coffee Shop like I do on most Thursday nights, nor will I be able to go to Don Hills to check out Brad Wlash's party

The worst part: My grandparents think that it's time that I settle down and start a family, and they took it upon themselves to arrange this. They hand picked a top notch nerd for me who is single and lonely and is tired of relying on his two cats for companionship. This guy really is a 40-year old virgin, and the saddest part is that he considers my grandparents, two 70 year old senior citizens, to be his best friends. Yes, this is the guy that they would like to set me up with to grow old with and to reproduce with.

So now besides missing my faovrite party night I need to sit with this guy at a table all ngiht and act not interested yet polite. In no way would I ever ever ever consider bedding this man. First he's 40! Thats practically double my age. next he has no social skills, cannot function normally in society, and is not pleasing to look at. I'm not shallow, but this guy does not believe in prober hygene and grooming which is a no go in my book.

I'm getting fustered thinking about what a disaster tonight will be, and how nagged I will be by my g-parents after I reject their choice of a suitor for me. Just because they as well as my parents wed at the young age of 21, does not mean that i must follow in their footsteps.

I hope that everyone else's night is better than mine will be...
