Sunday morning, I asked my wife if she wanted to go out anywhere, or would she rather just chill at home. I told her I'm in the mood to stay home and she agreed. An hour or so later, she proclaimed that she wanted to put up the christmas decorations. I don't care what she puts out and let her have free reign of the decorating, so she doesn't mind that I go in the other room and leave her to it. But it never fails: "Can you come move this?" "Can you carry this?" "Can you hold this up?". Fuck, I just wanted to watch ONE football game.

I asked my wife if we have any Thanksgiving obligations this year and she replied "no. Should I text mom and ask?"

She held a straight face for a good 5 seconds before bursting out with laughter.

So far we're in the clear, but I'd give it 50/50 we end up spending a night in Kerrville over that weekend. I know this thread will deliver over the next 8 weeks.

 I married your wife's sister.

They gotta know. Tell her like I've told every woman I ever dated: don't ask me to go anywhere, do anything, help around the house/apartment or anything until after the game is over. Texas is on and I want to watch the game. If that's a problem, then that's on you. How fucking difficult is it to give me a few hours of football time once a week?

Hell at my dad's place my youngest sibling knows better than to ask to go somewhere or do any other activities during a game. Example: *when she was a little girl*  Her: "Momma can we go to a movie?" or "can you take me to my friends house?" My mom: "Is Texas playing right now?" or if it's Sunday "are the Packers on? Then the answer is no. Not until the game is over." Then she either watches the game with us or finds something else to do.

We are hosting this year.  The weird family members asked to bring their dog for the long 45 minute trip.  Said no so now they aren't coming.  3d chess here and I love dogs.  

The bourbon and assorted booze will be flowing.  Dad's wife ain't coming so it will be a good day at my house.

Wife and I talked about Christmas plans last night.  

I told her that I wouldn't mind coming back to Texas earlier than usual so that I can watch the TxHSFB championships.  She got out the calendar and I agreed to travel on the 18th.   

I actually mentioned that we could drive in that previous weekend, and she said, "You can't last that long at my parents' house."  I considered that comment to be progress after only 32 years of marriage.

While you're watching the TX High School Championships I can hear your MIL now: "what bowl is this?" And after you tell her it's not a bowl game, "Oh, then what game is this?"

You almost nailed it.  She will know they're not bowl games because my wife will tell her that I want to watch the HS championships, so MIL will tell everyone she knows that her daughter is coming back early because I want to watch HS football.  The "WHOT BOWLLLLLL IS THIS???" questions won't start until the next week.  

Instead, every 5 minutes, she'll walk in the room and ask, "WHOT'S THE SCOOORE?!!" followed soon after by, "WHO'S PLAYIN'?"

So I have some family coming to Austin for the Kentucky game next weekend. I'm excited to see my uncle and younger cousin since he's never been to Austin. The only bitching I have is that one of my older cousins(who I attended the SMU vs Louisville game with) can't come now due to his worthless bitch girlfriend/baby mama. My aunt and uncle hate her and her parents are well aware of it. Long story short, they had my nephew, broke up, then she had her daughter with another guy (who isn't in the picture) and her mother basically tricked my cousin into giving her another chance and got them back together. He told me that while he loves her, he feels like sometimes he's raising 3 children instead of two. I can tell he's starting to check out. My uncle and I also suspect that she's been lying to him about her job status saying that she works part time, but my nephew said they only call her in to work when they need her....

Anyways, getting back on track, the bitching is because of her. With my cousin practically having to take care of the kids and pay for everything himself he didn't have any extra money to buy a couple plane tickets to fly down. We had plans for them to come down early and we were gonna show the nephew all around Austin(since he's never been to Texas) and take him to places like the Inner Space Cavern in Georgetown, the Texas History Museum, the football game, fishing on Lake Travis and having him try all the epic food trucks in the city. Then my mother was going to watch him while my cousin experienced the night life on 6th Street since he hasn't been. But, because of the bitch baby mama that's now all up in smoke and the nephew is bummed out.

I love this thread. I’ve never contributed because my fucking bitch of a SIL causes more anger than humor. She’s never had kids, never had a career, got her folks to waste their retirement savings to fund her night clubbing and gig attending in Austin from her 20s to her mid 40s, when she married an older guy (no kids) with a decent job and pension. 
 
Now that she doesn’t need her folks for funds, she really has little to do with them. She’ll have flowers sent for gifts. 
 
The opposite of love, they say, is indifference, not hate. Why can’t I just never think about her? Because my nieces will occasionally drop how Aunt —— and Uncle _____ will take them to dinner or to do something. My SIL has not one bit to do with my daughter. Maybe it’s because my daughter is adopted (which would be really shitty of her, but is not outside of the bounds of reason), maybe it’s because my SIL is too lazy to leave Austin (or to call), maybe it’s because she just doesn’t want anything do with us. I just know that my 14 year old daughter has asked a couple of times, “Why doesn’t Aunt —— ever see me?”  That’s when I get really pissed off at SIL  

We live in Arlington. So does her aging mom.  SIL can’t be bothered to help with time or money.  She doesn’t come up here. She’s got her own deal going. 
 
I hope to dance on her grave someday. I’m sorry this wasn’t funnier. I have hopes for that. If it takes a zany turn, I will update

Edited- we will see BiL and his crew on Thanksgiving, but not SIL. Her own MIL and FIL are long passed, but she wants to do her own thing. What you have to understand is- my MIL is a saint. She has and would make any sacrifice for her kids. SIL isn’t moved. She has made it clear that she has affection for her own MIL, even more than for her mom. A few years ago, her Christmas gift to her own mother was a couple of teacups that her own MIL had painted. SIL made it clear that she thought they were so fucking amazing.

Just remember this and cut her out of your life. Trust me you’ll feel better and so will the rest of the family. Also instead of dancing, piss on her grave.
