Is there one person during the holidays...

You really don't like being around? Usually a family member I guess.

I could name a few, including the bratty, spoiled, finicky 10 year old who was over at my house tonight...

But I'll mainly say my grandfather. He left the house my mom grew up in with her brother and mom when my mother was pretty young. He never paid child support, and didn't contact the family for over 11 years. He even refused to come to my mother's wedding. He recently moved out to California to "be closer" to the family (a.k.a. the woman he lived with died, and he had no home). He doesn't call anyone, often will RSVP to family functions and not show up, and is just a horrid person. He drinks a bit too much, and feels we should revolve around him. He tries to talk to me and it's hard for me. He's caused my mother so much pain and hardship, even today as she would still like a relationship with him, and I hate him for causing my mom to have such feelings... Not a good man.

Yes...my wife's step father and his sister. He's the guy who comes over to your house for the holidays, takes the best chair, the remote, and drinks all your alcohol. His sister...she just always tries to run all the holidays and.....drinks all your alcohol.

Although, last night was funny...I think she had a hangover...cause all the kids were running around screaming and she couldn't take it....didn't seem to bother anyone else....


hopes my wife doesn't see this... :shifty:

oh well...she knows my feelings...

oh yeh, i have a wacko uncle. he always has some get-rich scheme going that he tries to sell everyone on, but so far they have all FAILED. he can go ahead and have fun with it, but every time he thinks we ought to "invest" in it.
