I must have turned off my alarm as soon as it went off this morning since I dont hear anything anymore till I remember where I have to be and.. YUP.. IM LATE!!
Waiting for the bus and hoping for one to pass by any minute, I got an sms from my Dad while he's doing his morning routine... the toilet time! Its a routine for him that every morning he would spend at least half an hour at the toilet pooing. yuck! Aparently he fall down and hurt his back on his way to the toilet. He was just recovering from stroke and thats why he's no longer able to dash in and out easily like he used to. I would imagine that he would take a step at a time with a stick of walking support which is sad really. My dad used to be really strong.
Anyway,.. got to work on time *phew* and all I got is an annoyed look from my husband. I dont know what I did wrong, I thought I was doing good by coming on time. But obviously something probably come up during his morning talk with his own dad. Humph!
The day went pass by so slow and I was freezing trying to take order while peeking at my husband flirting and smile freely with the new girl that just start yesterday. Grr.. not that he's flirting, but his nature to smile gives away the flirting impression.
By the end of the day, I was talking to this new girl and my husband was within earshot, so she was asking me whether or not I have a bf which only means that my husband hasnt really told her that he's married. Grrr.. so.. feeling a bit irritated, I didnt know what I thought then, but this i what I said to her "Im married actually." and she was surprised and ask me who is my husband and whether or not he's the same race as me and again.. dunno what Im thinking.. i must be drunk .. as I said "I married to him!!" Pointing at the Indian dishwasher with my Father In law standing next to him looking stunned at my answer. DOH!!!!!!! I give a quick look to my husband who was laughing away. WHAT WAS I THINKING???? To make it worse, this Indian guy thought its a great idea and add "actually we are going to get married soon" when she asked about his ring. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
When my husband was laughing in a mocking way, I just give him the evil look to shut him up.
arghhhh....

The trouble with In-Law
Beep beep!!
Right at 7.00 am my alarm clock start making too much noise that I have not much choice but get up and press the snooze button. Yeah.. never once I actually wake up on the time that I have set.
I know I gotta get up but I just hate the thought of getting up facing the cold weather (its 6 degree outside this morning or maybe less.. who knows..brrr) and the very thought that I will have to go to work aka helping my beloved at his cafe WHICH his Dad co-owned.
Oh.. did I mention that Im living with my in-law? err..actually was rather forced to live with them by blackmail (long story.. will tell you another time). So NO! definitely not by choice!!
Everytime I went out the room for dinner, there I see them. And on the weekend when I feel like sitting at the couch doing nothing but watching my fave. series of Sex and the city while pigging out is not an option when the MIL (Mother In-Law) is busy vacuuming and cleaning the house. When I occassionaly pretend that im not awake yet, she actually starts banging whateva she's doing I guess in a purpose to give me the not so subtle hint to move my butt out of the bed and actually come down and take over. *sigh*
You see, Im not much of a housewife and never really have to clean my house let alone my room. There's always someone to clean it up after me and to even make my bed. Its like "bye-bye spoiled world" when I enter this marriage.
Before we got married, they sit me during a dinner gathering and when their son was not in the room, they start playing the we-got-only-two-son card with me. Saying that how they live for their sons only and it will be very lonely without their kids around and that they would love for us to move in and stay with them in a bigger house.
arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
If only I knew better. I should have walked out from the room, thank them for the dinner and run for my life and never look back. What was worse is that when I ask my then fiancee to back me up, they start reasoning how we could save bills and rent free by living with them and that knowing how hopeless I am in the kitchen, he shouldnt worry about whats for dinner (Grrr!!! I should introduce them to my good friends the instant noddles and chinese take out.. really!!) So, we have agreed to temporarily giving in and live with them for at least a year. But.. in all honesty I cant stand it any longer. GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nothing wrong with his parents or anything. They're fine and actually quite nice people (sometimes..) but .. look.. I dont get married to move out from my own house under my parents care to another. Everyday its like "where have you been?" Where did you go?" What did you do?" "who were you with?" "what are you doing with work now? what do you do?" arghhh.. I need air!! I had a small talk with my husband and actually counted how many times we had an arguement and how many of them actually driven, influenced or fired up by his parents. Well.. turn out that all our arguements were based on them.
Why are there's so many trouble with in-law? .. *sigh* no matter what's the answer, all I know is that I need to move out.. err..correction.. WE need to move out ASAP!!
