Well, she's NOT working. She wants to go ALL of the days. I am so irritated with myself for offering this. She drives me crazy if I am around her for more than an hour or so. I was really looking forward to this event, but now I am stressed out because I have this specter of her hanging over my head. She's already annoying me with text messages.
I am going to try not to let her get to me, but I really just can't stand her lately. She is very passive aggressive/annoying/martyr-like.

Sorry but what you did wasn't trying to be nice, it was being fake. Don't offer something just bc you think the person you're asking won't be able to accept. It's downright rude. Tell her the truth that you don't want her to come and deal with the fallout of your initial lies.
