re: Thanksgiving at the In-Laws

I just laugh up here. I'm from a really relaxed family in nowhere Louisiana. These people are up in miserable New Jersey planning this 6 course meal with crystal stemware. I said "we use paper plates and plastic forks". Mother in law said "for a holiday?!?!" I just responded with "enjoy cleaning all those dishes and putting them back where they came from". Which they were individually wrapped and out in a box then went in some cabinet I've never even seen.

She also just told me to make sure all my valuables were hidden because evidently there's a cousin coming over who will jack anything. She start rifling through my shite she gonna be in a bind.
