What's irritating me right now Listening to my mother go on and on about a ski trip to Switzerland for Christmas which I will be excluded from. What really burns me is that is was MY idea. So here I am life in limbo (just finished school, trying to move, looking for a new job) taking late night calls from my mother who is stressed out because this "perfect new" hotel in Milano isn't available. Oh yes, prior to the Swiss Alps, they are going to meet up with friends in London, then stop in Milan so that she can shop at MY favorite store (10 Corso Como) and oh, my dad apparently needs ANOTHER watch. Thank you everyone for allowing me to vent. |

I so get it!!!!!
A friend of mine is getting married in three months. Her mom took control and planed the ENTIRE shower.. from a-z AND decided now, two weeks before the shower to SEND THE BRIDESMAIDS THE BILL!!! Initially we were supposed to do only the superficial things. Because everything we said, the mother said no to, so we said ok.. go for it. So, in the midst of all of the stuff with my husband, and my friends mother, I realised that the wedding is bullsh*t, her fiancee is an ALCOHOLIC, and he got her pregnant, fake engagement ring, the whole nine, they do not have money to do anything with, her mother is pissed that she has to pay for this wedding, and now I call to see what the heck is going on, she YELLS AT ME AND THEN HANGS UP ON ME!!!!! So I have to try to call her back and eat crow, and patch things up because I am Matron of H. (another bs title) and smooth things over bet her and the bridal party. No one is listening to me... But yeah.. so I am returning her gift, she is lucky if she is getting a wedding gift from me at this point and her mother can kiss my ass... BUT... I get your rant, I feel the same way.. trust me... (hug)
