NBR: Need to vent about traveling

Klikina

This has absolutely nothing to do with NB, but this is the board I most post on and feel most comfortable venting to.

We are going to NYC later this week and are meeting friends there. My BIL and SIL live there and several months ago asked for things we wanted to do and places we wanted to eat at so they could make rez's for us and try to plan an itenerary. So, DH and I sent our list. Our friends didn't. She made the list. Everyone said it looked good, including friends. (This was like a month ago). Then a few weeks ago our friends decided, OH WAIT, there IS stuff they want to see/do besides what's on the list. It's just a few things, so I rearranged the schedule a bit to accomodate. Then I sent it out and asked how it looked and said let me know what time you want to do this and that so I can get tickets. I even said I wouldn't mind going by myself to see something if there wasn't time to do everything.

Ok....I finally hear from them...TODAY. (And yes, been trying to contact them.) And get a reply of something like "it's no big deal if we can't do everything." The way it came off though was more like, if I don't get to see the things (really, the ONE THING I want to see) then I should just go with the flow.

I know I'm overreacting and my preggo hormones are just out of control. But I'm a little bit pissed that they waited so long to send their list and it's just no big deal if other people miss out because of their procrastination. Oh, and no "thanks" for getting the tickets.

I know I'm being unfair. I know everything will be ok. It's just that now that tickets are gone, I've had to rearrange things again, and instead of having things spaced out, having time to explore and wander and shop is gone, and now we're going to be rushing in traffic to see things and change clothes and make our dinner rez's.....UGH. Not to mention I'm pregnant and still exhausted and sick so going slow through the day would've really helped.

(I really do love our friends. They are awesome people and I can't wait to see them. I'm just pissed that they couldn't respond more timely.) Thanks for letting me vent.
