House back to normal

By | August 15, 2007

Our guest, Justin, left Sunday afternoon to SD’s place.   He went to his other uncle’s on Wednesday and spent some uncle/aunt/nephew/cousins time.  He had a blast out there coz he had the chance to see the cheerleaders who they had an interest on him 2 years ago.  He also said he thoroughly enjoyed the ride with his cousin going 125 mph after a crook.  His uncle works part-time at the town’s police department.  And the cousin is a paramedic and works part-time at the sherrif’s office, too. 

The whole gang came to the cities on Saturday to the Mall of America and ride the NASCAR simulation and shopping.  They went for a show at the Acme Comedy Club where Emo Phillipswas performing.  They invited DB and I but I turned it down coz I for the life of me refuse to sit with my nosy SIL, her clone (daughter) and son in-law.  I don’t care what others gonna say or think of me, if I can avoid them, I will, and especially when I know the entire jing-band will be here on Sunday to drop Justin off at our house.

They showed up on Sunday while I was vacumming the house since Sunday is my cleaning day.  Stopped and BS with them and had to answer both SIL and her clone’s questions.  Wonder when they are gonna ask me if DB and I had sex.  That is how annoying they are.  Questions from who painted the walls, who chose the colors, who decorated the house, did we do any renovations to the house, what are we doing with the basement, why is the basement so empty, why we use the former nursery as an office, why we didn’t repaint the room, and so many more, I walked away and let DB handled them.  Can they mind their own freaking business??  Nosy bastards!!! I wanted to tell her if she can give me the money, I can buy more furniture for the basement, blow up the kitchen wall so we have a bigger kitchen, and hire a housekeeper to clean the house for me. 

Anyways, Justin packed up his luggage with his back to school clothes and waited for SD’s BF to show up.  Those two are inseparable since they met a week ago.  He offered to bring Justin to the airport on Monday afternoon since DB and I had to work.  The four of us had dinner and BF and Justin around 7:30ish.  It was great to see them have so much fun together. 

I bought the three of them (Justin, SD, and BF) tickets and gave them some money to Valley Fair for last Tuesday.   Justin said SD had so much she was grinning the whole day.  At least them kids are enjoying themselves.  I knew they would like that.

MIL called and chatted with DB and complained about Justin’s mother, what she did to her son’s paycheck and truck.  Something we don’t really want to listen to but we had to.  His mom took his paycheck, cashed it out, and spent $200 on booze, etc, took his truck for a joyride and came back with a almost empty gas tank.  Very nice.  Poor kid.  Now I know why he wants to move to Minnesota for good.  Before he left, he told DB he don’t want to go back to Texas.  He said if he can convince his mom to allow him to move to Minnesota, DB is all for it. 

Time will tell if we will have a new resident in the near future.

Oh hi,
Guess what? I spent the whole night reading your all your blogs….at first I was like ok, nice, and when I read the rest I was like, whoah, very articulately written and somemore what, very interesting, straight to the point. I like! I like! I am also a Malaysian-Chinese in Minnesota and through your blogs I found out that there is/are actually Malaysian Restaurant/Restaurants in MN after all. The last time, I had bad cravings for Malaysian food, so I had to make a trip to Chicago, at this P—– Restaurant, it wasn’t that great anyway. Gosh, I have been so ignorant about places in MN..haha.
Sorry for the long comment and also sorry that my blog is actually empty. I am new to blogging actually and haven’t find anything interesting to write.

<p><p>Glad the lad is enjoying himself. How can a mother do that to her son? Hope he can live with y’all. Does not seem like a good environment for him at all.</p></p>

SA, it is so sad when I heard that, too. That young man told me that house is not a good place for him and his sister to live – too many bad influences. Looks like someone is smarter than the mom!

I was thinking, why does he need to convince his mother to let him move away. I thought in the west all kids leave the family home as soon as they are old enough to do so ?

Re you other SIL – I thought only our asian relatives do that ?
Luckily mine is very boh chap type.

The reason he is not 18 yet. Kids over here gained their “freedom” at age 18. He’s 17 right now, his parents still have the say of what he can and cannot do. DB said he has to talk to the sister what she has to say. You know, you call them in the morning, their story is different when you call them in the afternoon or evening.

Yeah, you are lucky with your SILs. I can really strangle this SIL and her daughter. LIke the saying goes “like mother like daughter”. She is the exact mould of the mother, except for the eyes. She has the “Tice” eyes.

‘Tice’ eyes – eyes that got you hooked to DB is it ?

ka-ching! You got it! :)
