Happy 4th....
I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine did not start out like I had planned...
Friday DH worked 1/2 day. When he got home around 12, he and I went to the grocery store for some things. He took his list and I took mine and we were going to meet at the register. My shopping went by quicker than his so I just found him in the store. He was on the phone with his mom and his brother most of the time. I realized that I had forgotten something so I told him I would just meet up with him. I went through check out first and was waiting for him and I notice that he has a large amount of hamburger and buns. I said, "DH what are you buying all of that for? Are we having a cook out that I didn't know about?" (I was joking) He said, "Ummmmm well, I was on the phone with mom and she mentioned that they would like to come over, so yes we are." That really pissed me off. I said, "Soooo...you didn't think to maybe ask me if it was ok? Or even run it by me first?" It wasn't that I minded having a cook out...I minded that it was after 1 and he just decided without asking me first. Also we just moved in and the house is not exactly the way I would like it to be for guests to see. There are still things that don't have a place yet. We get home and I am rushing around to hide stuff and clean and try to make a cake. He said, "You should probably get in the shower." I looked at the clock. It was 2. I said, "What time are they coming? I was thinking around 4 or after." DH--"No they will be here at 3." WHAT IN THE FUCK??? You tell me at 1:00 that we are having a cook out that is starting at 3:00?!?!?! I wanted to kill him.
I was getting ready to get in the shower and his phone rings...it's Thunderfoot. I just hear him say, "We can discuss it when you get here." Great...what does SHE want? Of course she wants her stupid little BF to come over. NO! Just NO! I get in the shower. Everyone was there when I got out (all of them came empty handed too, of course...they have NO manners! I have never gone to a cook out empty handed) and DH said he needed to talk to me. Of course...he said, "Do you mind if Thunderfoot's BF comes over?" I thought he meant after the fireworks, which would have been late, so I said "No he can't." Instead of just saying ok he said, "So it's not ok if he comes over and eats and then rides with us to the fireworks?" I can see now that it doesn't matter what I say or want...the stupid BF is coming over because HEAVEN FORBID Thunderfoot not get her way. I just said to him "Whatever...but he is NOT STAYING THE NIGHT! If he comes over and rides with us, he better have a ride home. His ride better be here at 10:30, not leaving the house at 10:30. I am not having them pull any of their shit like they always do. AND if his ride isn't here by that time, tell him he better wear comfortable shoes because he will be walking."
So now we have to wait on stupid BF. The fireworks start at 6:00, it's now 5:00 everyone has eaten and he is still not there. FINALLY he shows up and we all ride to the fireworks show. That was a great time. We ditched his family and walked around and chatted with friends. When it's time to leave, we all pile in and head home. BFs ride is waiting in the driveway. (For once) I headed in the house to go to bed. It was around 10:45. I guess his parents thought they were going to come in and drink or watch TV or something. I gave them the "Thanks for the ride and good night" chat. And I am guessing I pissed them off because they didn't even bother to say goodbye to DH (he was in the bathroom). He came out and said, "WTH? Did you run my family off?" I told him that I didn't do anything I just told them thanks and good night. I mean wtf? it was almost 11:00...why the hell were they going to hang out with us????
Needless to say Friday SUCKED but the rest of the weekend was VERY nice and we had a great anniversary!

Wow.... I mean just..
Wow.... I mean just.. wow.
Who does shit like that?? Well, I guess your DH. That's just horrible, I am not sure how you managed to get yourself together and actually enjoy the day, kudos for you for that. I would have had my panties in a twist .... and they'd still be twisted. Did you guys actually talk about it all afterwards? Does he have any idea how effed up that was to do?
Alcohol..that's how I got
Alcohol..that's how I got over it! LOL I pulled a straight D-RUNK the next day.
We talked about it on the way home. Well actually we didn't talk until he apologized and said that he was wrong. Then we got into it again when he told me they were coming at 3. I love him but he can be such a dumb ass.
It won't be happening again.
It won't be happening again. I don't really like to entertain. It's just not my thing. He does though. Well from now on HE can do ALL of it.
The kicker was...it was our
The kicker was...it was our anniversary weekend. Now she did bring a card. How thoughtful...She also brought a bottle of wine. I thought (stupid me) that she brought it for us. Nope...wrong. She brought it for HER! And I don't have any wine glasses at the moment. I can drink wine out of a regular fucking glass. She HAD to have a martini glass to drink it out of. Then she took the wine with her when they left!
Holy crap. There's a class
Holy crap. There's a class act... I still give you credit - I would have said something snarky. I can't help myself.
Yeah...I was thinking "Just
Yeah...I was thinking "Just drink the shit out of a solo cup? Who cares?"
She likes to fancy herself
She likes to fancy herself "high class".
DH got mommy dearest the
DH got mommy dearest the glass. I wasn't in the room. I would have given the bitch a solo cup! What idiot drinks wine out of a martini glass? Well...MIL that's who!
I don't think he is scared of
I don't think he is scared of her...he just kisses her ass for some reason. He has always done for them. His brothers don't do SHIT for their parents but DH bends over backwards for them. I am not sure why because they aren't over friendly or helpful to us.
"She brought it for
"She brought it for HER!...She HAD to have a martini glass to drink it out of. Then she took the wine with her when they left!"
That right there is MY MOTHER.
LOL.
This is just rude.
This is just rude.
Whaaaaa??? Showed up empty
Whaaaaa??? Showed up empty handed?! What the frickin frack is wrong with people?? NEVER in my life have I ever shown up to a cookout with nothing but the clothes on my back. I would, at the VERY least, call the host/hostess and ask what I could bring. If he/she said "nothing" (unlikely, but...), I would still stop for some chips and dips or something from the bakery or take a bottle of wine or some beer for the folks throwing the shindig. SMDH
Right?!?! My mother taught be
Right?!?! My mother taught be better than that! I would NEVER dream of showing up empty handed!!! EVER! They are just miserable assholes anyway. DH was on the phone with his mom yesterday and over heard him telling her that WE missed them. Ummmm...nope I don't! Not one single solitary bit!
Exactly!! I was taught the
Exactly!! I was taught the same thing. Sorry, but at that point, I would have been so PO'd, I would have showered, and left the bloody house, had a nice fun day/evening, and come home around midnight.
Well poor wittle Thunderfoot
Well poor wittle Thunderfoot hasn't seen him in a while and she was using this as an excuse to get him over. She's coming to stay this weekend and I DARE her to ask for him to come over. And if DH goes over my head and lets him...I will leave.
Oy! Sounds like this can go
Oy! Sounds like this can go either way... your DH doesn't seem to make good decisions... good luck with that.
If he knows what is good for
If he knows what is good for him...he won't let him come over. But I think Softheart is coming this weekend so there won't be any need for him to be there.
He already doesn't like
He already doesn't like me...so this would be PERFECT! I am shocked that he would even want to come over. I am already rude to him and don't speak to him unless I have to!
They are so gross. Both of
They are so gross. Both of them are unattractive and they hang all over each other like two leeches. It makes me want to vomit. I would have NEVER acted like that in front of my mom or step dad. I was too embarrassed to hold my BFs hand much less hang all over him!
I can't get over the nom de
I can't get over the nom de plume "Thunderfoot" HI-larious.
I had my OWN fireworks show since Nanny State NY has lightened up (finally) on fireworks regs. Lots of fountains and sky rockets!!!
