We are in Iowa to attend a friend's wedding. Actually, my wife, Shanna, is in the wedding party. I took Friday off to join her at the rehearsal/dinner, and to obviously go to the wedding today (which was beautiful.. I didn't take photos.. sorry). Because of the past two days, Shanna owes me... BIG TIME. Here's why:

When our room was booked, I was informed of the decision that we would be rooming with my mother-in-law.. I'm gonna say this once.. I don't enjoy her company, at all. She tears down my wife emotionally, and I get to put her back together again (not that I'm complaining.. I'll do it until the day I die, she's worth it.. but it's the principle) Fantastic.. Now there's no guarantee that Shanna will have a mother by the end of the weekend.. Then, Friday, on the way down I drove the whole way (I have no problem with this, only that it was agreed upon that she'd drive the majority of Iowa.. She's been down here many times this summer already). Top that with my tiredness... made for a long drive (not to mention... It's IOWA.) Here's a doozey.. at the rehearsal dinner, Shanna drops the bomb.. I'm to stay at the hotel Friday night alone with the mother-in-law because Shanna is going to stay with the bride. I was THIIIIS close to staying in the car last night.. In the obscene heat and humidity. So far today, I've spent the ENTIRE day with the mother-in-law. After we leave this weekend, she'll be riding with us back home and staying the night Sunday night, because she leaves Monday morning from the MLPS/STP airport.

I'll record a video or two and post them.. but of course, my beautifully awesome wife decided to take my camera..

Any over/unders on if the mother-in-law make the flight?

OMG

My mother-in-law knows that I don't watch the news, or read any newspaper.. Yet she INSISTS on asking me SEVEN FUCKING TIMES a day if I watch/read the news.

I'm sorry for the language.. I don't swear, almost at all.. But this woman... $(&%W(*

I haven't touched any alcohol for over 3-4 years.. but my God, I may have to drink tonight at the reception because I just may kill her.. lol

Lol. Calm down, Formo. Keep in mind, this is for the misses. Can't you go out and do something relaxing during the day? I mean, you're not stuck to her then entire time, right?

I kinda am. She's fine.. as long as she doesn't talk. But as soon as those gums start flappin', it's all over with.

Try to imagine, a person talking to you as if you are 7 years old. And repeats the same questions. Multiple times.

Then, behind your back, rip apart your beloved so bad that when you see said beloved, she's crying.

Team that up with a million other things she does that I try to forget.

Makes for great fun times.

I'm calm, my d00d. I just remember that I will hold this over my awesome wife's head for many... many years. And she knows this.

Many favors, coming my way, is my motivation.

LOLOLOLOL!!!!
Sorry Formo........but your story is like a sitcom story!
Now....seriously......it will be over soon, and it will be ok. (As long as you don't kill her and end in jail!)
It is like going to the dentist......it hurts while your doing it, but then it's over and you go on with your life.
I KNOW and understand........but take a deep breath and relax! You've been through worse frustration! After all...........your a VIKINGS fan, right? So you should be a PRO at dealing with frustration!
Hang in there my friend!!!

I think ALL of us are like that Formo. Thats why we LAUGH at them. We see ourselves in the sitcoms.
The Mom in "Everybody loves Raymond" is SO much like my Mom was towards my wife. The little digs. She even LOOKS like my Mom. When we watch that, I'll see my wife looking over at me, and i bust out laughing.

Zero2Cool (10h) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
