No more weddings!
So, I had one of the few fights I ever have with my husband over his family...again. His younger sister is getting married and I'm soooo happy for her, but her whore of a mother is causing issues and angst all over the place. She's such a drama queen! For crying out loud, it's your daughter's day, not yours, you fucking cow! Saying she won't be there if the father is there just because they got divorced last year. Hello! You caused the divorce, you selfish bitch! You abused him, not the other way around!
Anyway, I digress. So this last two weeks have pretty much been eaten up with the sister's bridal shower (I am never cooking food for 80+ people again. I don't care who it's for or how much they beg and they can take their damned puppy eyes and shove them!) and bachelorette party, tomorrow is the actual wedding and Saturday is the reception. Tonight is supposed to be the family dinner/rehearsal. Well, technically, I'm not in the bridal wedding party since I'm not a bridesmaid or anything but I was going to go anyway and my husband had said he would do the barbecuing for them. Except this afternoon was tense as hell when we all met and her mother glared at all of us for even hugging her ex-husband (my husband's father). Literally, cut the tension with a knife kind of thickness. Well, faced with that kind of stuff, my body reacts to emotional stress. I get cramps, the holy mother of all that's holy, torture movies look like fun, take all your menstrual cycles for your entire lifetime and condense them into one day, kind of cramps. It also gives a great migraine headache as a side dish. So I asked to be excused...but my husband says this is my way of copping out and not supporting his sister.
WTF?!?!?!?!?! Not supporting her? Did I not just slave myself silly for her bridal shower, expose myself to people I hate for her bachelorette party, including the girlfriend of my husband's younger brother, and show up today to help keep WWIII from happening? And because I want to skip out on the BBQ because I don't like being folded in half when I talk to people and am recovering from a cold that I got from the damned bachelorette party, I'm not supportive? Oh, fuck this, seriously just fuck it!
