Families just whiz me off!!!!!!!!

Who said, they said, we said. Sheeeessshhh!!

It was my new wife's birthday yesterday. Called my side and got a new asshole after a bitching out because no one can remember birthdays and no one wants to. Granted, I am no angel but I was just calling to ask people to call back. Her siblings never even called.

Sorry I forgot that phone call 20 years ago. But get over it.

I did get her flowers and take her to a movie, plus a nice card.

1. Families, can't live with 'em; can't kill 'em in their sleep.

What are ya gonna do? As for me, the guilt inflicted by my mom for missing mother's day a zillion years ago has me trained not to forget ever!

Yesterday was Dad's birthday. We went to dinner, and I bought him a couple DVDs. :-)

3. I swear to (insert deity of preference) I am NOT going to give my kids

any grief for forgetting birthdays or even not calling. That kind of emotional blackmail is totally uncalled for and abysmally selfish. If I'm curious about what they're up too, I will call.

5. Why would you kill them in their sleep?

There's no challenge that way.

You're right...heck, it's only my mom and dad, and they're old...I can give 'em a head start. ;-)

2. The really sucky part...

is I bet she always remembers to call them.

I love my family, they always remember my birthday, but I have lots of friends who go through this same shit as your wife.

I bet she really "appreciated" ;-) that you remembered and did something nice for her. :-)

4. You aint kidding

She travels 90 miles at least one time a month to go visit. Lets see on their part, once< for a housewarming. I wanted to call and ask, but left the decision to her.

7. Is all of her family kinda clustered in the same town, area?

I've been an *outsider* with the rest of the family like that and it sucks. Being taken for granted is an understatement. :(
