25-6-2009 - EVERYBODY HAS SOMETHING TO F'ING SAY

My mood while writing this blog:
SUPER PISSED OFF

Ok...so I am sooooo pissed right now...Everyone who IS NOT carrying my child has an opinion about everything...So first, my sisters, who I am very close to, have an issue with what my husband and I decided to name our baby. His name is Langston because 1) I love Langston Hughes 2) My husband is a writer. For some reason, I have been so insecure about his name since my sisters have had so many jokes , whenever ppl ask me what the baby's name is, I preface it with the reasoning which is totally absurd now that I think about it. My sisters are thinking of nicknames so they don't have to call him Langston. They have even joked about me ruining his childhood with that name. At first, I didn't mind b/c we are a sarcastic family but now it is really starting to piss me the F*&^ off. Second, this babyshower thing is really starting to bother me. My sisters and mother are throwing my babyshower. At first we were going to divide it into 2 showers, one for family and one for friends because of the number of ppl that would be invited. My sisters thought that was stupid until......they saw the actual number of 75 ppl. My sister called and told me that she wasn't sending an invitation to so and so because SHE didn't know them. Ohhh let me mention that we are having a co-ed shower. They want to invite my cousin's wife who uses my mother, cussed out my aunt, I haven't spoken to her in 3 years and we live 30 minutes away and she threaten to KILL my other cousin's wife to where she had 12 warrants for her arrest. I don't want her to come but they are saying she's FAMILY and asked how that would look if she wasn't invited. She has been invited to plenty of events at my house and not shown. They have an opinion on who should be invited because they feel they are throwing it and I quote "it is not about me". If it is not about me then WHEN THE HELL IS IT ABOUT ME? Ohhh and they insisted since it was so many ppl then it would have to be at my house but I can't say who is and is NOT invited to my house???????Uhhhh so frustrated...about to throw my own damn baby shower....Sorry for the long post I had to vent...clearly!!! How would you deal????

Bless your heart! Well I am a very open person so I would start with telling your sisters to keep there damn opinions to themselves! They can name there children and you will name yours whatever you damn well please too!!! ALSO, I love the name you have picked very nice! Then I would tell them if they cant throw YOUR babyshower the way you have requested then you'll do it your damn self! It sounds like you have lots of other friends who could help out! Apparently there not very bright ladies these sisters because honey the shower is ALL about YOU! YOU are the one bringing this miracle into the world and you deserve to have what you want!!!! Dont back down! Stand your ground! Be firm and assertive!

I would just stand up and start asserting yourself. This IS about you! Family can make life difficult at times but you will never do this for the first time ever agin so just tell them the way is it. As for the name it is none of their business. My husband and I have decided to keep our name choices a secret so that we don't have to worry about anyones else's opinion. Just tell everyone that it is your choice and opinions are not welcome.

Ok #1 I love the name Langston and I may steal it now...LOL. Your child!! tell them how you feel about it. And as far as the baby shower goes. I went through the same thing. I had a friend throwing it and she told me that all i was suppose to do is show up i was not suppose to have any say in it all. We got into a small argument about it so i decided to have another friend host it instead. Damn what she said... It is my day that's why I register for what I want! I'm pregnant!!! I'm if it was not for that fact there would be no baby shower. Tell them to go get pregnant then they can have what ever kind of shower they want invite who ever they want.. Maybe look into a friend throwing your shower instead. Have a second shower and don't tell your family about it. Just you and your friends. Get the free stuff... Good Luck!

I would tell my whole family, with a massive smile on my face that it's MY baby shower, and if I don't want certain people to attend then, that's MY business, and if they don't like it, don't bloody throw me one! Then I would tell them they had until that evening to decide, because your (completely ficticious) friend wants to throw you one anyway...if they tell you to go ahead and let your friend organise it... I'm sure one of your friends would be MORE than happy to do it for you hun, and if they don't want anyone else muscling in on their organising, well then you'll get to say who goes, won't ya!? *wink*
