He's been hiding in video games and facebook for how long now?
And NOW instead of hiding and brooding with his negative cynical emotions he has to take those into a room and DEAL with them?
Given his negative emotions overwhelming him right now he has no confidence that anything GOOD will come of the weekend. He's convinced whatever happens it will be terrible and he just wants to hide in his room and play video games...
You were talking about the two boys celebrating him for giving them a larger TV... Isn't ONE of them in the loop on his facebook activity? Won't they see through that?
I hope he sees through it. Of course, doesn't mean he won't be happy about having the big tv! lol
