My 18th Birthday's gonna suck, but I don't want to whine. How do I tell Mom that

I just want to hang out? Well, I'll finally be 18 tomorrow... whoop de freakin doo... And it's my favorite uncle's B day too! =D I know I probably sound like a brat right now (especially since my mom just bought me the TV I'd been looking at for $230) but I really just want to spend my birthday with my mom and uncle (mom's bro)! My uncle is just to awesome not to celebrate~ and Mom gave birth to me, this is the day marking her youngest child turning 18, I feel like she should be there but...

*sigh* Our car's brakes went out and the mechanic HAS to work on it in the tomorrow because he'll be leaving soon. My idiot sister is out partying tonight so my mom (and me) is having to stay up and watch my nephew AGAIN so I know she'll be too tired. My dad tried to buy himself a present instead of my TV so now my parents are ticked at each other and I know he's going to do something to make me want to kill him tomorrow. My family AND my teachers told me I could lay out of school tomorrow, it really is a family tradition, but they've teased me about "skipping" and "flunking" all day until I'm ready to freak.

I just want everyone to shut up, go away, and leave me alone so I can have one freaking nice dinner with my mom and uncle. No yelling, screaming, insults. I just want to be with the only family members that I really care about. But how can I tell my mom that THAT is all I want, when I know she's gonna be too tired? I don't want to stress her out more. And since I know that there is no chance of that happening anyway, what can I do to make this joint B day suck a little less for my uncle and me?
