Feeling Bridezilla-y
Ok- here is the deal.. my bro and SIL live in in CA, and her parents live in Canada- obviously, all will be flying in to NY for the wedding- like a week before. It will be a time for them to spend with each other, and also hang out in NYC.
So my bro just asked me if I wuold like to come, but more importantly get him a reservation at a popular restaurant- my company works with a lot of restaurants, for Thur night before the wedding- for my mom/step dad and him and SIL and her parents to go out and bond.
I am taking off Thurs & Fri before the wedding- to do last min things, etc. I live in Manhattan- I have no car, and all my wedding stuff I have done with my mom. I said to him- I'd rather you not go out for a big dinner on Thurs- I have no idea what to expect and I may need mom to help me, do errands, etc.- I have no idea. And he is like, ok bridezilla- which pissed me off! So I think they'd do Tues instead.
Anyway- is he not getting it that I may 'want my mommy' like 36 hours before my wedding day!! Or, am I being totally irrational? He goes, fri will be nice cause she is taking off work- yes-- for ME!! Not to hang out with you during the day-- she is the mother of the bride for goddsakes! This week will be just as stressful for her as it is for me.
Anyway- he said they could go out on Tues too-- but now I feel all guilty- It is not a big deal I know- but now I feel like I am a b*tch or something. Also- he wants to spring this on my mother as a surprise- which since I am completely my mother's daughter- she may not even want to go for a decadent dinner when she is worried about looking good in a dress..
Ok- I needed to vent.. I think that was the main purpose of this.. but am I being too territorial over my mom?
