i didn't want to say "our parents" as i thought with the mention of other relatives it might be confusing...and it was just simply too early added to my "bah humbug-fuck this holiday" distracted self to say my/mine

only drama I plan on having is everyone complaining from all the noise when I am playing with my niece and nephew all day tomm

11/25/2009 4:13:37 PM

11/25/2009 4:15:15 PM

11/25/2009 4:15:42 PM

11/25/2009 4:16:45 PM

11/25/2009 4:18:02 PM

I come from a family of gator fans! Woohoo

11/25/2009 4:22:11 PM

My whole family is full of State fans. The bitching and complaining is incessant.

11/25/2009 5:20:02 PM

just found out my dad's ex wife and her 3rd husband are coming for dinner. i'm going to have to act surprised because my brother is going to flip his shit when he finds out.

11/25/2009 5:27:15 PM

the plot thickens..

11/25/2009 5:29:46 PM

many of you have awful families

i am sorry

11/25/2009 5:30:48 PM

i burned the 3 little piggy cake

my brother is gonna killlll me

11/25/2009 5:37:07 PM

the only drama should be that none of his family knows wtf we want to do tomorrow. oops.

11/25/2009 5:39:54 PM

My brother and sister and law are not coming, yet again, because of her parents.
I hate the tension of arguing about who's not coming and why and the whining blah blah blah blah.
Then I get the uncomfortable crap like "well we are SO glad that YOU are able to come even though we know you are so busy with work. Your brother doesn't even call anymore like you do"
uggghhhhh
can't we all just get along??

11/25/2009 5:45:37 PM

I hadn't been here 5 mins and it started... Blaaah

11/25/2009 10:18:58 PM

i flew into san francisco to visit my parents, and when i got to their house they had gone to a dinner party

11/25/2009 10:20:17 PM

Lol, I'm spending thanksgiving with a friend of mine. It's basically going to be a lamefest with some beer and some delicious food options. Simple, delicious food options.

I'm going to visit my family Saturday. Couldn't visit tomorrow because of how leave works inside the government.

11/25/2009 10:39:56 PM

you all should plant video cameras throughout your houses and then post the vids. would be funny shit.

11/25/2009 11:14:38 PM

I'm just going to have to deal with my unemployed dad and his worthless girlfriend.

11/25/2009 11:30:03 PM

too many guests, too many old unwashed comforters,
must find way to watch NFL tomorrow

11/25/2009 11:47:32 PM

i get to hear my family fight about who's donating a kidney!!! And deal with my dramatic bratty "alcoholic" cousin exuse herself from life, my autistic cousin who wants to wear women's underwear, my dense cousin who thinks he can hit the bigtime by playing poker, ect ect

ahahahahh i can picture him in my head. he's got a coke habit btw. i feel like i want to know him just so i can watch him crash and burn

11/26/2009 1:11:38 AM

had to get away from the family so i went out with my best friend and got to watch her fight with her boyfriend. i thought we were too old for this

11/26/2009 1:14:10 AM

"don't start no shit won't be no shit!"

11/26/2009 5:06:41 AM

twoozles that is the perfect opportunity for you to make a move /.

11/26/2009 11:05:08 AM

yeah too bad i hate him. and he knows it.

11/26/2009 11:33:51 AM

haha this thread is funny. the biggest drama in my house today is wtf we are going to do with SIX pies. we're taking 3 with us to dinner but the other 3 are staying home

however if i was at my dad's there would def be drama with my step mom. she really gets under my skin and i just end up completely ignoring her when i'm over there... and staying in a hotel instead of their house.

good thing im at home in nc this year. relaxing and enjoyable family time

11/26/2009 12:08:12 PM

I created the first wave of drama last night at dinner. My grandma informed us that my cousin would be bringing some sort of lamb to t-day dinner and then I got on a roll about if it was sacrificial lamb for a pagan ritual. Did not end well.

11/26/2009 12:12:37 PM

i am praying for no knives or tasers this year

11/26/2009 12:20:10 PM

ive gotta present the history of thanksgiving to a large crowd

stepfathers mom is getting a divorce from her second husband. she went psycho and ripped up his clothes and bleached them and burned them etc. wanted 50k originally, and the guy was ok with that, and then wanted 80k and the guy said no. she acts like hes the bad one(she thinks he cheated), but pretty much everyone sides with the guy. the ppl are mountain hick scum as far as i'm concerned anyways

11/26/2009 12:22:10 PM

what do you call your step-father's step-father, step-step-grandpaw

I'll transfer this from the awkward conversation thread:

Quote :

"it hasn't happened yet but it will: my dad's side of the family is at my place right now. my 16 year old cousin is wearing a silver cross his girlfriend gave him. if anyone hasn't figured it out by now, we're Jewish. I'm waiting for my grandpa to just erupt in anger, but I don't think he's noticed yet. My grandpa is a huge, intimidating man, and I wouldn't want to be on his bad side there will be a shouting match, followed by all of my dad's siblings saying how much better their kids are because they would never do such a thing. My sister and i are the only ones out of 10 grandchildren that are dating other Jews right now. Grandpa bought everyone else a copy of a book called "Why Marry Jewish?" then my twice-divorced aunt will get really drunk and scare off the guy she's been dating the past year, who was probably planning on proposing soon. yay family gatherings "

I actually just found out the dude already proposed to my aunt. I asked my parents why nobody told me, and they said they only found out through facebook. That is both funny and sad at the same time.

Also, this guy's daughter has a tendency to get really flirty with me. I thought about going for it back when I was single, but I was worried how awkward it would be if we became "step-cousins." I'm glad I didn't.

so far the only drama is about me

i'm now allowed to attend thanksgiving but i'm being guilt tripped about killing old people if i get them sick

ugh. what to do what to do.

11/26/2009 1:07:27 PM

You could get Chinese food with me and drink scotch while watching football in my hot tub afterwards. That's what I'm soon and company is welcome.

11/26/2009 1:11:13 PM

^ that sounds awesome

11/26/2009 1:16:09 PM

that sounds better than anything I'm doing today.

11/26/2009 1:30:30 PM

Well, its just me, my husband and our pet birds today. Not too much drama but the birds have already been pretty cheeky today. I might have to cover them up when he gets home.

11/26/2009 1:32:38 PM

it's been a surprisingly drama free day.... i just need some time alone

[Edited on November 26, 2009 at 3:29 PM. Reason : ]

11/26/2009 3:15:19 PM

my relatives always probe my love life. its so annoying. at least they reworded it..."hows your social life"..."same old same old..."

11/26/2009 3:23:35 PM

this is the first thanksgiving in years i haven't had a boyfriend so they think they're being kind by asking those kinds of questions

11/26/2009 3:30:40 PM

Enough drama before 1pm to last a month

11/26/2009 3:41:36 PM

share!

11/26/2009 3:48:14 PM

i always lose. it's a running joke.

now, off to do some dishes.
