Not Coming

I have to tell my dad that I'm not coming over this weekend and I'm worried about how he'll take it. I just don't want to deal with him guilt tripping me again. I'm thinking about giving him one day, since I have a long weekend. The thing is, I have a friend who I haven't gotten to see in a long time. She might be coming over this Saturday. And then I was going to use the rest of the weekend to study for finals, which start on Wednesday. He just doesn't understand that my mom's house is a much more productive space for me to study. I can get things done there, and I can't in the apartment. It's just not a good space for me there. I need to be here, and he doesn't get that. As he put it, I'm 'bailing on [my] family.'
