Doing the wave with Magic Friends

***RANT ALERT***

Stressy stressy. And once again doing everything all wrong! When I told the fam TWO MONTHS ago that Grant and I were getting married, mom was like "Whatever" and my older sister was actually against it. And honestly, that didn't bother me at all. I accept their feelings and go about my life.

Well, the "wedding" has now morphed into something totally unplanned. I asked Grants sister to be our witness, and she was thrilled. Then my boss, with whom I am very close, said he'd like to stand up for me. I was touched and said yes. Then Grant asked his best friend to be there, and then we thought it would be fun to go to the Phillies game after the wedding. We figured we should invite the people who had expressed interest in attending our nuptuals. Then Grant's boss wanted to come, so I figured I should ask my BFF or she would be ed that I was having a "do" and didn't invite her. Now I am taking them all (except for Grant's boss, he has a funeral) and EMily to the 1 PM game tomorrow. Sounds fun, yea?

Last night my sister calls and wants to know why I didn't ask her to be my witness. And my mom calls insisting that we stop by after the wedding, she wanted to have a lunch for us. Excuse me, where was all this 2 months ago???? They're all like "Well, we thought you guys weren't doing anything". Yea, and you obviously didn't care WHICH IS FINE but don't try to make me feel all guilty now. I don't have time to do lunch at my mom's I ALREADY HAVE PLANS. Yet I'm the bad guy. My mom is all hurt and saying this is the last nice thing she will ever do for any of us. We compromised on stopping by briefly after the wedding and having dinner after the game.

And I thought I had it all under control.

Wow. She is truly one of a kind. I'm sorry you have to deal with that.

Some days I fantasize about moving far far FAR away... but then feel sad that Anya won't get to know her only grandfather :(

We've all suggested repeatedly that we'd all benefit from some family counseling. You can guess how well THAT went over :rolleyes:

Sounds like we could both use a drink:

No worries there, doll, I'll drink enough for both of us.

Did you really suggest counseling??? Yea, I bet that went over great.

OMG.
Amy's getting married tomorrow???
I didn't realize it was time already.

Deep breaths, girlie.
That's the way weddings go sometimes.
Everyone has their own ideas of how it should go down, but the only opinions that should count are yours and Grants.
Do what you want. The others will get over it.

I knew Dot would show up when I started an ice cream fight! :D

Now you're going to make me want ice cream. I attempted to be good at the store yesterday and not even look at the ice cream aisle, but all these toppings everywhere aren't helping my craving.:slurp:

We've all suggested it REPEATEDLY over the years... it's never gone well. :hammer:

But it's something we all NEED. Woman has some serious baggage.

Does she interfere with everyone else's lives the same way she comes after you?

Hello Bun!
Been meaning to tell you that I've read the first 4 Aurora Teagardens.
Not nearly as good as the Sookie series, but still...I like them.



Yay!
JIMMIES!

I'm on The Julius House right now, and expect to polish it off tonight. They're good, but I agree, not the same as the Sookie ones.

Mmm... ice cream.

I shouldn't though. I've got half a pumpkin pie in the fridge :lookaroun

And oh heck yes does she interfere. That's what she lives for, it seems.

And to top it all off, now that we have a spare ticket, my girlfriend wants to invite this guy that she's totally in love with who, let us just say, does not return the sentiment. Grant does not want her to bring him because he's afraid she'll turn the whole thing into the "Alicia trying to impress a guy who has nno interest in her" show. And he's right, but I can't tel her the ticket is already taken because it's not.

Alicia is tough...I know in her efforts to impress this guy she will bring up all kinds of inappropriate storied from our past (it may shock you to learn I was a bit wild in my youth) in front of Emily. And will have no clue as to why this is unacceptable...she thinks she knows from kids but at 40 with no kids of her own she sort of forgets other people's are in the room.

Then that's a definite no, Amy!
Don't give in...IT IS YOUR DAY!
