5+ hour road trip that accomplished nothing... [View all]

A 5+ hour road trip today to chauffeur my parents around in the car. The trip should have been 2 hours or so but we got stuck in several traffic jams. We got little to nothing done. We had a meal that made us nauseous. My mother has anxiety and control issues and was worried and anxious about every little thing the whole way. She's also a back seat driver when she gets that way. Nagging me the whole way. It was a crappy rainy day.

I need to find my own interests and get away from my parents more. I went cause I need the driving practice and there was a free meal in it But the meal sucked.

I feel drained
