And she never complains to him, he usually has to hear it from his brother, King of Milking problems! What a messed up family!
That's horrendous - you would think if you were going through something like that, they would jump up to be supportive.

Parents-in-law suck. I suppose that makes it a good thing I'll never have them. Right?

My sister had a nice mother in law.

I wouldn't wish my in-laws on my worst enemies.

nah, not all of them. My mom and my dad's parents got along well (they are both gone now) and my dad gets on well with my mom's parents.

I guess it just depends on how well you "fit" with the family. But really, after a certian age, I think the parents should back off. If the person you son / daughter is with is good to them and they are happy, keep any little opinions to yourself.

I have a very good friend who's parents will not speak to her because she married interracially....which I think is an utterly stupid reason to sever a family tie. They are the happiest couple I have ever seen. EVER. (and I'm not just saying that because her husband is my taekwondo instructor )

The first thing my father-in-law said when we told him we were getting married was "I'm so glad you're not gay son". I could not believe he said that to him. It's not like he never dated before or was getting old with no intentions of getting married, and it shouldn't matter if he was gay or not (though, since he married me, I'm glad he's not ). He was 26 when we got married & I was 19. I was completely shocked that my nice, loving, and kind husband had come from two of the biggest idiots I had ever met! I am sooooo happy he's not like them at all

You sure he wasn't just joking? That's a common thing to say to tease a guy who just got engaged.

nope, he was being serious. he said his biggest fear was one of his sons being gay. Seriously, he's very ignorant. He really sucks. I'm glad he lives 6 hours away.

i hate having these damned trimesters.
it's awesome that if you get stuck in a horrible class or summin you can get out relatively fast. but it's sh!tty cuz i feel like i have to deal with midterms or papers or presentations on a bi-weekly basis. there's never any time to just relax or rest.

i had completely forgotten that i had a presentation to do in front of 800+ students on tuesday...because i just gave a presentation to a smaller class last thursday along with 2 ginormous papers due that same week. but after i suddenly realized that i had the presentation to do this coming tuesday, i also remembered that i have another 15 page paper due this tuesday.

i love how the profs always assign projects and papers as if their class is the only one you're taking.

MORE POTATOES!!!


actually, red meat has the same affect on men that chocolate does on women. Eat a big greasy burger with a side of fries. get that seratonin pumping!!

i'll be back in a sec.....don't go anywhere.... *runs off for a minute*


ready? *clears throat*


Don't worry be happy
In every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy......

Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy
The land lord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
Look at me I am happy
Don't worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number
When you worry call me
I make you happy
Don't worry, be happy
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got not girl to make you smile
But don't worry be happy
Cause when you worry
Your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don't worry, be happy (now).....


ok...so its an annoying song....but the lyrics are good BE HAPPY! A wise man once told me, even if you aren't happy, act like it. No one will no the difference and guess what? after awhile you won't remember why you were upset either

And I like that song, its a cheerer upper.

Alright, I know he's dead, but this needs to be heard.

I just received a very insulting message from one LogicDonny over XBL. He has finally put me in my place, from beyond the grave no less.

Click here to download and listen to this horrendous voice message. I'll be weeping in a corner.
