ME: Oh HI! (still don't know what the hell I should call her!)
FMIL: Are you and JT coming over for the bbq tonight?

FMIL: Be here by 5.(Click)

ME: Hi everyone!
Everyone: Hi Rachel, hi JT!
ME: We brought Amber's (JT's niece) birthday present since we won't see her next week.
FSIL: Why'd you do that?
ME: Can she have it now, or would you rather her wait?
FSIL: Fine, Whatever!

FMIL: Where's the ice? I thought I made ice! What the F*@#! There should be ice! WHY THE HELL DOES THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN TO ME? WHY ME? Of course this happens to me, it wouldn't be MY life if it DIDN't HAPPEN TO ME! I can't even enjoy a cold drink in my own house! RACHEL....EAT MORE!

FMIL: (slyly hands JT a check for 100 bucks with a note saying 'Here's your birthday present, I'll send a card next week. This is to put towards the Camcorder Rachel is buying you.')
JT: Huh? What's this? What camcorder?
ME: W T F? (whispering to JT) Are you kidding me? She was supposed to give ME the money to chip in for your birthday present that you NOW know about! It was supposed to be a surprise and she KNEW THAT! W T F?!?!?! I need to get some air......
