Ughh, I'm going on holiday tomorrow. Which is fine. Lovely. I'll probably enjoy it when I get there. But before that I have to pack, and it's a little weird because we're only going to Bridlington. Which is about an hour and a half away, on the coast. So we're still going to basically be in Yorkshire, and the weather is (*isn't) particularly summery at the moment. Much better than it being crazy hot, of course, but it's like, I'm going to be taking a lot of my summer/holiday gear, but I'll probably get the most use out of the clothes I wear pretty much day in day out. It's also kind of nice that if I feel like it's too much I can just take a quick train back home - but on the other hand, that sort of underlines the fact we're not going very far, which doesn't make it feel very holiday-y.
I have done a bit of shaving though, as usual. Just my bikini line, in case we go swimming. So that'll probably be growing back in and itching all week. It does kind of bug me that every time I go on holiday and need to look 'presentable' for all the activities I want to do, I end up in pretty huge physical discomfort. But I'm not even shaving my armpits or legs at the moment, so maybe I'll get over even the bikini line thing in time. Anyway - point being, it makes it feel a little holiday-ish. And I am sort of looking forward to it - imagining the looks on the kids faces when we get there. Before or after they all start arguing. Still. And packing shouldn't be too much of a pain, since I basically just need Regular Clothes and Holiday Clothes, and my parents mostly put all our stuff in binsacks, to save space in the boot. Plus, since it's so close and we can't even check in before one, we don't have to set off till pretty late morning at the earliest.
After the argument I was having online over the last few days, I ended up having a nightmare about my sister last night. So I'm a little tired today. And what with everything going on tonight I might not get much sleep either, and then I'll be in a new place which always makes it hard for me to sleep, at least the first night. So I'm not really looking forward to being super-tired over the next few days. But - I am mostly looking forward to it. We'll see how it goes.
