sibling rivarly with the inlaw???

okay...i'm pretty sure that I am going to kill my brother in law soon! Just wanted to let you know in case they lock me up and you do not know where I went...i'm in jail, but I won't be for long because if any of the jurors had ever met him they would say "justifiable homicide". He and his fiancee are driving me NUTS!!! They are getting married in 6 weeks and have NOTHING done and have decided all of the sudden that we have to make up for the short comings of their planning. Hello- failure to plan ahead on your part does not constitute an emergency for me. They picked the venue because one of dh's cousins got them a hella deal on this beautiful historic home which comes with it's own wedding coordinator- that being said, if the wedding coordinator isn't responsible for it- it's not done. 6 weeks and they do not have a videographer, a photographer, A MINISTER, a flower girl and she only has one of the two wedding dresses that she just has two have (don't ask)...AND and...i was trying to encourage my bil to get measured for his tux because let's face it he's 6 ft 6 and it's wedding season. But he told me that he wasn't going to get measured for his tux until two weeks before the wedding because when he got married last time in February in California they told him that they only needed 2 weeks to get it in and he was able to pick in up in DC for his wedding...and i think that that is what makes me mad...it's not that they are completely unprepared and making us all fix it (i'm dj-ing btw...i have to pick all of the songs for the wedding and the ceremony -including their first dance and upload it to an ipod) it's that i know that they're completely unprepared and I know everything is going to be wonderful and turn out better then ours and that my bil will quickly comment on it and then shortly thereafter the groom will become a uniq...he didn't even come to our wedding- he went to Vegas because he didn't want to come to our wedding because he didn't want people to ask him about his ex and why they broke up...i really really hate this guy...and i pray every night before i go to bed that the genes are recessive....

on another note...let's add to the things that he has done...when we got pregnant and told everyone christmas he told his parents "I told 'girlfriend' that giving you all a grandbaby would be the best Christmas present she could give you all". Literally the room fell silent- i don't even think that the cats meowed. We just all turned and looked at him and no one was going to say it, but dammit it was my night and I just said, "you know Mike...it's not that we don't want you and girlfriend to have children...it's just that we think you oughta take care of a couple of steps first...you know like getting engaged or taking a trip to the courthouse." Everyone just laughed...but seriously who does this???

This has continued though dh's aunt made a comment to me at the family reunion last august about how she was looking forward to us having kids and bil overheard it...and he rushed over to his girlfriend- who he HADN"T BEEN DATING FOR A YEAR YET and asked her if anyone had asked her about when they were having kids and since then- IT'S ALL HE'S TALKED ABOUT!!!! Oh when (i've got to use her name) Phuong and I have kids....when Phooney Whooney and I have a baby...and now that I am pregnant again it's 300x worse he'll walk up to her and pat her stomach and ask her IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE FAMILY when she wants to have one...he's asked me for all my fertility books, my baby books and told me to give her tips on trying to conceive...okay..i need to learn to set this blog to private...but first of all she's 38, which is fine, she's still got time my mom had my sister at 40, no problem but he's also told us that apparently she has a raging (read pustulous) case of hpv...which apparently all of the sudden got "cured"...so either he's lying or she didn't have it or it's in remission, but seriously, if you had something like that, would you want your boyfriend blaring it over the speaker to everyone in his family about your raging std that you caught off your cheating boyfriend! I feel so so very bad for her...and I know my bil is her last ditch effort at getting married and having a family and god bless her for being able to put up with him and taking him out of our hands, but there is no WAY i would ever tolerate dh doing that to me in front of his family!!!!!

so anyway. i hope you haven't read this far, but my main issue is that we're going to the farm this weekend to see my in-laws and celebrate my dh's and his father's birthday and instead of it being about that he's coming in tomorrow and it's going to just be about the wedding...if i make it through this weekend without killing him, i'm applying for cannonization. thank god my child can't hear yet because if it could and it accidentally thought that my bil was it's father, i am for sure that it would willing take the umbilical cord wrap it around it's neck and jump...believe me...we all want to!!!
