Happy 700th Post to Me!

Actually, it's more because I on occasion delete old posts, but hey! I'm at 700 today anyway! Let's party!

Weekend Update
Anything fun happy with you people's normal families? My in-laws aren't so bad. But they can be weird on many occasions. I've decided not to blog about the majority of what happend this weekend. But if you want an email version, just let me know.

However, I will blog about this. Are you wondering if I got that stroller from my MIL? Basically, yes but no. She bought one, but not THE one. So at least that's half good right? Even though, it's more annoying to me, because that stupid box is really heavy for my fat self, and now I have to drag it into frickin' target, return it, and then go home and order it from the website or go to Burlington and get it from the store there, and then have a $200 credit at Target.

All that hassel would be fine by me too, but then she kept telling me how it didn't show up on my registry. She showed me the pages she printed out and want to know the date? 2/17/08. Six days after I registered. Like I have been frickin' saying all along. I didn't put the stroller on either registry until about a week or week and a half after we registered in the stores. That's what I told her when I saw the date of her print out too. Then, she kept telling me how it wasn't on the print out at the store either. Hmmm..... Maybe becasue if you went shopping that early, it wasn't on there! Just like we told you the VERY day we told you we had registered that it wasn't on there yet becasue we didn't know if she just wanted to give us money for what she wanted to spend and yadda yadda yadda. The woman does not fricken listen.

I also told her I had my friends check for it, and they had no problem finding it. I did this just to rub it in I guess. Plus it was the end of the day, and I was tired of her. (You'll know why if you request my emailed version of the weekend.)

Then my SIL with the 6 month old, (because she is sick of the BS too) says to me, "What is the difference with the one you wanted?" So then I got to say OUT LOUD all the great things DJ and I got with the one we picked out." Then my SIL asked me about the colors of the one we wanted. I said, "sort of a sage and pink color. One that would look good for a boy and a girl". Then my MIL says, "well this one is sage...." pointing to the picture on the box. So then I had to point out that "that's just a picture. The actual colors are right here (pointing to the color swatch squares on the box), which are hunter green checks! Totally a boy looking stroller.

Then, stupid me. Forgot the gift receipt at the house in town, so now I can't return it until we head back to town. Which won't be for another couple of months. I checked with the store today if I could just return it without a receipt because I was just going to order the one I wanted online. They told me no because they only return items under $20 without a receipt. Target sucks! Sucks my arsehole! (No offense to my friends that work at Target HQs.)
