Look out the Ship is Going Down " Titanic"

First I would like to start today's post with a long "S----I----G---H !" So last night we got the phone call from my mother in law . My husband leaves the room and my first thought is, here we go. Let the drama begin. Here is the break down of the story. My husband and I got married in August and now that we have purchased a home his mother has decided to box up ALL is childhood items and sent them my way. Her husband is taking all the necessary test to get his PhD. Hurricane Rita was a concern as he was already worried about his test and wanted to come a day early. We had plans Friday night but being the soft hearted sucker I am I said yea sure come on. He gets here safely and my husband immediately notices the car is full of boxes.
Mind you we have brought some of his stuff before from visits. So here is the slicker he doesn't leave it Friday night. He goes and spends Sat. and Sunday night with my sister in law. He calls Monday saying he is on his way over. He was suppose to spend the night Monday. He comes by ditches the crap and announces he is leaving. I got no warning this crap was coming nor was I asked if it was okay. So here we are. I let my husband know right away I felt taken advantage of. I felt totally disrespected. As if to say I don't care that you are his wife I'm cleaning out my house and you're going to take this stuff. What the f$%% ! Here comes Mr. Nasty I let everybody know I was not happy and this JUNK was out of here. So back to the phone call.
The phone gets handed to me and by the sound of the voice on the other end I'm thinking somebody is dead. My question was if the test and the hurricane were such a concern it took some time to load all that crap up. I felt I was tricked ! I also stated this crap was his before we got married why is it an emergency that he take possession of it NOW !She is crying, my husband is crying very awkward position to be in. She thinks I don't like her and I don't want her to come visit blah blah blah. I told her forget the stuff I had already decided my course of action. Please stop crying ! How all of a sudden did I become the recipient of the Guilt Trip. I'm so not a crier so I don't do well crying. I always feel the Victim Flag is waving high for all to see. So after a Long, Long conversation I finally went to bed. My question is WHEN DOES THE DRAMA END?
I do love my mother in law but I also have to stand my ground. Some of that crap should have seen the trash can a long time ago. She asked if sooner or later my parents would be sending my things. I told her we threw that crap out years ago. My mother kept some things and I have a scrapbook but we don't like clutter at my mothers house. I 'm going to be on the look out for a time machine (Micheal Jackson style) so at certain times I can just transport myself to a tropical island with a good stiff drink.

IN-LAWS FROM HELL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So when you are a little girl dreaming of your wedding day never does it enter your mind that you will inherit in-laws. Well I'm going to say something I have wanted to say for a long time. MINE SUCK !!!!! They are rude, disrespectful, and just a big infected thorn in my side. Hence my fathers famous saying " Money, Friends and inlaws " I wish there was a magic spell where you can return your in-laws if you are dissatisfied. The time has come for them all to meet Mr. Nasty. The gloves are off, the sweet girl who smiles through her anger is GONE ! I've got rings on my expensive furniture from cold drinks. I have two guest bedrooms filled with crap that should have long since been sent to a land field. No regard for me at all. All I hear is " Mom will be really upset if you throw his stuff away." Well mom you can just kiss my a$$. Keep this crap at your house and you won't have to worry about me throwing it away. To my father in-law I give you the tasteless emergency expression of 2 middle fingers in your face. I 'm letting it all out and I don't care who likes it. So Hello In-laws Mr. Nasty is here to stay as far as you are concerned. You've walked on me long enough !!!

HELLO IT'S MR. NASTY !!!!!!!!

So now the time has come for me to introduce my nemesis Mr. NASTY ! Mr. Nasty is my ZINGER ! I never know what's going to come out of my mouth when he shows up. It's a very direct cut throat combination of words and descriptive verses that come from some dark part of my personality. Mr. Nasty is so hateful he has brought people to tears and utter speechless pauses. He leaves them in utter shock. I'm always surprised at what he makes me say. I'm usually like wow where the hell did that come from. I'm a mild mannered girl but if you bully me for too long sooner a later the Zinger will slap you in the face like a ton of bricks. He'll find every personal flaw you have and every secret insecurity and bring it to the surface right in your face. The Zingers breaks them down in a few fast knife cutting phrases like a cheap 5 page paper back book. I guess Mr. Nasty is my protector that jumps in when I am too stunned to speak up for myself. It's been a hard road for him as it use to be extremely difficult to keep him under control. Often sending a nasty Zing to people I really didn't want to Zing. My friends get a kick out of it. I hear "Man how do you come up with that stuff" or " I wish I could have thought of something like that to say". Well I don't know what to tell them I don't even know where it comes from.
Just don't ever mess with me or you can look for Mr. Nasty !

Jealous Awareness

As I get older I learn things about people. As my husband and I attempt to enrich our lives we have found that the things we want and the things we wish to do bother people. We are getting the questions such as: Why do you want that? Why does it have to be that? Why do you want to go there? As if to say how dare you want to achieve those things. My dad has a saying that I am finding day by day to make more and more sense. Money, Friends, and inlaws will break up a marriage. The sad thing is I'm not sure (these people) are even aware that these feelings they have are feelings of jealously. Some of it is just plain ignorance. While I have a quick temper I haven't let Mr. Nasty out in a long time. That's a really good thing for me. I've worked really hard to keep Mr. Nasty under control. It's like one of those Zingers ! After a while people get on your nerves so bad you have to Zing them back in line. I'll have to Blog about Mr.Nasty the Zinger. Anyway as my new husband and I move along I'm finding you'll have Drama Queens, Haters and Want to Be's. On the good side you'll have True Friends. Thank goodness for them.

FOOTBALL MADNESS

So my husband and I are at complete odds over this. I personally think T.O. is all that. While my husband is a die hard Cowboy Fan.
We even have a room in our house dedicated to the Dallas Cowboys !! His own personal shrine. Don't get me wrong I love the cowboys I have more than one #88 shirts and jerseys of my own. There is just something about T.O. he is a playmaker an in your face suckers type guy. He loves to point out the Roy Williams hit on T.O. So what did you not see him play for the Super Bowl.
Broken ankle and all like a true warrior. So how will the Cowboys do this year. I hope they go far my floor can't take to many losses this year. YOu would think a funeral was going on when they lose. As we speak I am listening to the sounds of Madden 2006
coming from the next room. Morning, Noon and Night it's football season ! If you can't beat them join them but one up them and cheer for the rival team
