Le Sigh.
Tonight I was supposed to be out on the town with the Husband type dude. The In-laws promised to take the kids so we could catch a movie. I explained (multiple times) that I wasn't going to drive into the city twice and that we had some things to pick up before the stores closed - so they had to take the kids in the early afternoon.
One O'clock comes and goes. Finally they call, but !surprise! they want a nap first.
I guess the concept of stores closing early on a Sunday during a Holiday Weekend is unknown to them.
We said fuck it, dressed the boys and did our shopping. Then ignored the phone. Or would have ignored it, had it rung.
I know I am not explaining this well, but that's OK. As long as you get the general idea that I am pissed the fuck off, It's been explained well enough.
We rented Zodiac instead. It exceeded expectations.
The end.
Pee Ess:
Trish had a baby girl VIA C-section. And *giggle* today is labor day! *snort* Both mom and baby are fine! Go send congratulations their way!

Sorry that really sucks!
Sorry hon. That bites.
zodiac was pretty damn good....but I hear ya on the in laws. Living away from my own family all my kids lives, i only had my mil sporadically to "count on", major let down. so much as, i am now raising the niece she was raising for 15 years. i think i have it backwards.
next time drop the boys off at my house, or at least call and see if I'd beable to watch the kids so you and hubby can go out.
That sucks.
Sometimes grandparents don't understand how important date night can be!
Umm...I would help also, but...ummm..I don't have my passport yet and they wouldn't let me back into the US.
Next time call me!

Sorry about the date night. I hate when they give you a yes that means no... it's easier just to hear the no the first time.
Whoohooo on the baby!
I would be pissed off, too. Except that is something that my own mother would do and not something my inlaws would do. That's okay, they irritate me in other ways.
