what do you do at your in-laws house???

[aquaman]

I have been here since nine this evening, waited a while, twelve-O'Clock for in-laws to go to bed. They do not know that I drink or smoke and have been married seven years. Jesus, I am 32 years old and feel that I am a kid. Tell your in-law stories as I drink a lot!!!

1. my wife hates her family, so it's never an issue

Never have to go.

She, however, has to put up with my family.

Poor girl.

2. Damn, they don't even know that you drink?

That was the best part of hanging out with my soon-to-be former in-laws. Booze was free-flowing. Smoking was a different matter, as I'd have those during my 2 hour walk with the dog.

3. i have a hard time going to my inlaws. MIL is an energy sucking hole.

she is neurotic and has serious psychological problems. i can only take so much of her before i go online or pretend to take a nap. i go to my room, close the door and read in bed. sad isn't it? if i don't say that i'm taking a nap, she will come in and try to talk to me as i am trying to escape into a book. this woman has no concept of boundaries. :scared: it creates tension too.

4. We hang out in the kitchen making a big meal while the kids

play on the sun porch. We munch almonds and have cocktails while we wait for dinner. We eat. We sit around for a while afterward, talking, having after dinner drinks or coffee, and my MIL usually sets out dessert for whoever wants it. The kids get a bath and go to bed. My in-laws retire about 10:00. My husband and I go upstairs, where the bedoom provided for us has a TV with DVD player, and there's a computer if I want to go online.

When we visit we stay several days at a time (and then several days at my parents').
