*wants to vomit*

My mom just called and talked to J's mom and for some reason I find that highly unsettling. J's mom thinks I'm very quiet. OMG, I'm too quiet. Me! It's SO TRUE. I'm horrible with real people. Like a robot, only less charismatic. I've known these folks for three years, and I can hardly hold a conversation with them. I'm such a freak.

My brother's fiance and my mom are like best buds or something, and I can't even be alone with J's mom or I start sweating.

So none of this matters, of course, except I'm going to have to somehow involve his mom in all the wedding planning, and it's like agonizing just thinking about picking up the phone.

I keep thinking they hate me behind my back, and J doesn't help because he thinks my fears are hilarious and often says that they DO hate me, and then laughs, because he's evil and I hate him. So does anyone have any in-law stories to help me feel not quite so freakish?

I'm going to worry about this all night.

He walked in on you? That's so embarrassing. But at least you get along with them *nods* I wouldn't say that I don't get along with J's parents, I just wish I felt more myself around them.

My sister had to schedule her wedding to coincide with the cycle of the planets or else her future mom-in-law would not come to the wedding because the marriage would be d00med. *laughs* that actually sounds like fun :)

We were actually just sleeping, thank goodness. *G*

It took me a while to feel myself around my in-laws. Now my husband says he married his mother. (She and I don't know how we should take this) We are actually a lot alike.

I'm sure you'll grow more comfortable with them, especially with the planning and all the good/fun reasons you'll have to talk. Chin up.

They do like animals, don't they?

I did get his mom the awesomest xmas gift. She has a basset hound, and her other son has a basset hound, and they're the two different standard patterns for the dogs, so I stumbled across this adorable kissing basset hounds salt and pepper shaker with BOTH dog colors, one of each, so I know she'll love it! So that at least has me excited.
