the only bad part of my weekend

I made cookies on Thursday night, because I was bored, and wanted to use up the chocolate chunks I didn't use over Christmas.

 So Friday I brought the cookies over to a family GTG with FI's family. 

FI's skeezy uncle came by, who never remembers me. I don't mean my name, I mean at all. He never remembers that FI is even dating someone, despite the fact that I've met and spoken to the man probably 20 times. 

But then he tries a cookie and says, "Did you make these?"

"Yep"

"Oh, well you look like a white Aunt Jamima! Heh heh heh" <while rubbing his belly

 

Then later, when SIL got there after getting her hair done he says, "You paid for them to do that to your hair? That's a shame. You got robbed"

Luckily, she didn't hear him. She was already fuming that he was there, after a falling out a few years ago where he insulted her kids, resulting in him spending Thanksgiving alone.

Re: the only bad part of my weekend

  • i hung out with the ILs the first half of the weekend, and worked the second half. i realize that my ILs get on my nerves a lot more than I care to let on. I wish my MIL would get a hearing aid already.

    needless to say, i had a better time working.

  • FI's grandma was in town from PR. They speak Spanish around her because she doesn't speak English very well. I have never had an issue with this, but if FFIL apologized one more damn time for speaking in Spanish I was going to flip. Seriously, I get it. I'm not mad. Stop apologizing. I don't think it's a conspiracy to kill me, or that you're telling jokes about whitey or anything. Damn.
