Heh, speaking of horrible things said by parents, I think that my boyfriend's mother has the funniest opinion of me: well... if she was Chinese, she would be too good for you.

(She has said this more than once.)

"You can do better than" the Drunken Housewife.

Damn. My kids drive me nuts sometimes, and I loose my cool sometimes, but I would never, ever.

I once wrote part of a blog post about Silliyak.

And just earlier this week, I again raved about your steamed veggies. Which I usually wind up doing about once a month.

well my first husband my family met was a partner in a law firm and butch beyond belief. my step-father loved him but my mother hated him.

I don't think my parents are sneaking around to learn anything about me. They really aren't that into me. There was a while they were, when I got into Stanford & married my first husband. But now I'm unemployed, not in any prestigious academic programs, and divorced from that husband. Although they like the Sober Husband, no one can compare to Husband #1 to them. My father actually said to him once when we were dating, "You can do better than" the Drunken Housewife.

Johnny Mathis is gay?! Why didn't someone send me a Hallmark card about this?

my mother lived in a house for 25 years where she never told the neighbors she had a son because i was gay. this despite the fact 2 of the neighbors were a male couple. i wasn't the "johnny mathis interesting gay' she adored.

Or they could be like my parents and find it much more satisfying to sneak around and see how much they can learn about me without me noticing...

My wife's good friends with her first husband's second wife (he's with #3 now). I end up just saying 'my friend' Brooke, because I never know whether to say she's my wife's ex-husband's ex-wife, or my stepson's ex-stepmother.

Ow, my brain.

At least, the watching part. LOL.

Or perhaps you're just too interesting for a boring old soul such as her? One thing about today's right wing religious types (I was raised by some) is that so many of them tend to just follow along with whatever their flock is doing. And how interesting can life possibly be when all you're doing is looking at everyone else's ass to figure out what you should be doing? ;-)

I remember it as you, Silliyak. It was in response to me repeating how the Sober Husband had said, after a kitten I'd planned to adopt died, "We dodged a bullet." A commenter -- whom I remembered as you -- said, "It must be so special to have a spouse who always knows just what to say, like a Hallmark card." It slayed me. It's here in the comments on this blog SOMEWHERE.

I think I've become the typical kids-obsessed parent in that I don't care if family members think I'm interesting - but they'd better find my kids interesting or else.

My mother didn't find me very interesting until I became a university lecturer. Strange really because previous to that I actually saved people's lives working in mental health services which was a lot more interesting ...

If you're referring to the Hallmark comment...are you sure that was me? And are you considering this either a high or low light of your existance so far? Hope not! My best thought is "Don't believe everything you think"
