never a stranger, even with references. teenage girl from a family you've known for a while and that's about it. the old "everybody else is doing it" has caused a lot of mysery for parents and kids.

No strangers at all. We have two teenage girls up the block who watch the kids or my parents if they're around.

Too bad your parents need watching too. It would be much better if they could just watch your kids themselves.

Props for admitting that. My first daughter pretty much sucked. Didn't sleep through the night until she was nearly 2. Could not put her down, was colic like crazy, changed formulas seemingly every other week.

Unfortunately for me, it seems I have 'passed my gas' gene onto her.

So, the rest of you will have to regale us all with your family stories of turkey-day shenanigans!
I am in the same boat as you LSL, far away from family.

However, living in a resort community, we have a lot of folks that can't make it home so we alternate years with partys. Its just like family, drunk uncles, crying sisters, annoying cousins!! However you can call evryone out with out years of family guilt!!

MIL had a bunch of tests that ruled out cancer. So whats her response? "All that means in the cancer is is where they didn't check."


Here's a real life example of her behavior:

Waitress: Your entree comes with a vegetable.

MIL: What are my choices?

Waitress: Broccoli....

MIL: I CAN'T EAT BROCCOLI I'M ON COUMADIN!!!!

That's a great line about not being happy unless you're miserable. Sums up some of my extended family to a T. Personally, I loathe that kind of mindset. It drives me crazy, like nails on a chalkboard offending my sensibilities. Some people are far too content being a martyr, and it's usually those people who you have to constantly bend over backwards for.

The waitress should have said your entree comes with Broccoli.

Did your father in law show you his astronaut pen?

Whatever you do, dont take it.

You know I recently made a joke that the reason Jets fans are such pessimistic, f*cks is because our fanbase is made up largely of Italians and Jews, and we both seem to revel in our misery. We NEED something to complain about.

It didn't go over well.

Or maybe it was just my sledge hammer delivery.

You expected them to be happy about it?

There are worse things. Maybe some classes at your local university.
