We have to go decorate Tim's dad's house for Christmas today, and I'm trying to beat back peak levels of resentment. I know I could stay home, but I do genuinely want to be helpful. It's just that, after 10 years with his family, you'd think I would stop being surprised that something that should take any normal human being 3 hours ends up taking 8 hours because they make things needlessly complicated.

I know my FiL has Wild Turkey, so I may just start drinking the minute I walk through the door.

Tipsy decorating is way preferable to sober decorating.

David, I have some bad news for you: Product 19 is discontinued .

Nooooooo!!!!

I wondered why it was off my local grocery shelf. It had been harder and harder to find but they still stocked it.

Special K is no substitute!

Cereal mixing is the main problem in my marriage. My DH mixes. He no longer mixes ALL the cereals without asking, though, after I threw an operatic, melodramatic shitfit about cereal mixing and trust.

Also I've switched to Grape Nuts, which doesn't mix well with anything.

We sometimes have cereal in the house. mostly granola - which goes on top of yogurt. or DH eats dry. I tend to eat cereal more often at the end of the day - because I am hungry

Wait, he mixes them in the box? No, that is bad and wrong and no. You do a mix in the bowl.

my dad mixes in the bowl and he used to mix with grape nuts. I rarely eat cereal and do not mix.

I had the trainer this morning. everything is sore. I am going to list things on ebay until 5 and then get ready for DOLLY PARTON CONCERT.

Timelies all!

I've never mixed my cereals. I usually only have one type around. (There are two boxes of cereal in the house, but the other box is Cheerios for Mr. S)

What the fuck is wrong with all you cereal mixing weirdos?

The only time I have mixed my cereal was if I was at the end of one box and started another. Then again, I very rarely have cereal.
