| | | Shoot Me - Family in Town
So my wife graduates college this Friday. Her whole family has come up from TN. Right now there are her parents, her sister and husband....plus two young kids. Tonight her brother comes in...and then tomorrow her other sister comes in with her three kids. And they're all staying in my mutha f'n house. I have a bi-level....3 bedroom.....nice new house, but not very big rooms. I'm already going freakin' crazy! I came to work to get a break, but my nerves are shot. Its like I've separated from my body and my mind is just floating out in space.
Oh, and my mother and brother/wife are coming in, but at least they're getting a hotel. Noooo....not my wife's family. They think its fun to have 15 people in one little house.
Shoot me......plllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!!!!:b ang:  |

Dude.... screw that! I don't even like my OWN family, let alone that many of them in my home, LET ALONE someone else's family in my home, even if they are inlaws.
In fact i don't much like people at my place at all really, i'd rather hang out somewhere else than have people over. Company FTL  |

I hear ya. I like my comfort and relaxation at home. We don't have kids yet, so to have 5 of someone elses kids in my house! Get this, the one sister even brought their dog. Its about as big as Lassie.
And I'll get home at 5:00 tonight. My wife is working until 8:00......so they're all at my house right now! And the WIFE THINKS I'M GOING TO FIGURE OUT DINNER FOR EVERYONE. She had the balls to ask me to cook something. |

Oh man, if that's not a good test of the relationship then nothing is. I'd say it's time to order pizza! LOL.
I live by the 'man's house is his castle' rule, and i rule with an iron thumb when it comes to other people crashing the place. Company for a short period...maybe dinner or a movie...maybe....but staying over for an extended number of days? No way in hell....there are cheap hotels everywhere, sorry.
You'll just have to invite a bunch of rowdy Stangnet guys over and have them stay at your place for a week....farting and stinking up everything and see how she likes it. |

Oh yeah....her mom hates the F word. Whenever I drop the F-bomb when we're at their house, I get a dirty look. But I make sure to drop it when they're in my house every once in awhile (while the kids aren't around)......lucky for her she hadn't given me that look or I'd be giving her that same look when I dropped her ass off at the Motel 6. |

Reperations are in store for you my friend. Putting up with this to make her graduation special will without a doubt lead to some excellent nights after the folks leave. Be patient and good things will come. |

OMG noes!
Dude if you need someone to talk to just PM me. Every man has to suffer in-law abuse at some time or another. I'm still plotting how to put a shock collar on my mother-in-law and keep her OUT of the yard. |

Tell her its a necklace you made for her. Just throw some glitter on it and your golden. I'm sure she already thinks your retarded so she can't say no to a retarded child's gift. |

Thanks for the support guys. I plan on getting some brews on the way home tonight. And I bet the wife will have the nerve to complain about me drinking again. She does that I'm just go to tell her "It could be worse, I could get drunk and kick your whole f'n family out of MY house."
Actually.....I might end up at the Holiday Inn tonight. I gotta work tomorrow too. Nothing worse than leaving your own house for work when 10 family members are just gonna be hanging out there all day....watching my big screen....chilling on my recliner. Best not fugg is all up! |

Trust me if you piss off her parents they will bitch at her and she will get tired of it and bitch at you because i'm sure he isn't going to throw out her parents. This graduation is a big thing for her so just deal with it and collect afterwards. |

That's what I'm doing. I just didn't realize it would stress me out this much. But I haven't said a word to the wifey about it. I dare not ruin her special moment. And its not like I was when I graduated....I could really care less.....nope....she's all excited about it like we won the lotto or something. So I'm gonna take one for the Team.
Thus, I come to Stangnet to rant. |

Invest in a good Ipod. Or, get a kiddy pool (big enough for just you) and a night's worth of beer and smokes, a boom box, a jar of peanut butter and a loaf of bread. Fill pool and stay there til they leave. |

There's no where to put the darn thing. For real, there are air mattresses on almost every square inch of open floor space. We have a 3 bdrm. One is ours obviously. The other is a guest room with a double bed...her parents are staying in there. We have an office, which is like 10x10 with a big desk and bookcases, file cabinets. There is room enough for a queen air mattress on the floor, with no walking space around it. Her brother will be sleeping there. Luckily we have our rec room finished downstairs, folded up the ping-pong table and there is room for 2-3 air mattresses down there. 2 sisters, the husband, and 2-3 of hte kids will be sleeping down there. The other 2 kids will be crashing in our living room.
But I might just have to set up a lawn chair in the garage and crack a case open. |

Any time i have to do a family thing with my gf, we have an understanding that i just don't enjoy things like this....so there's a level of discomfort that i endure and in return she tolerates any attitude that i get as a result. I guess it makes up for the times i drag her to the parts store and to car shows and such. |

Oh shoot....I forgot the best part of the story. I get home from work yesterday, and the first thing they want me to do is go with her dad to pick up this freakin broke down, burnt clubhouse thing someone put on their curb with a "free" sign. Her mom wants to rebuild it for the grand kids! The damn thing weight about 300lbs and we had to lift it up into the truck bed. As we tried to lift it up, the damn roof broke off. So I"m like, why don't we just go back and say we put in a good effort. Her dad's like NO.....I can't go home empty handed, she'll just make me come back up here with tools to take it apart and put it int he truck. Finally we jammed that sumabitch in there, in pieces from where it broke.
If anyone at my house starts speaking Spanish I'm gonna lose it. |
