I'm so Glad Christmas is OVER!!!!

I can honestly say I am so glad its over...My Christmas SUCKED!!!! First of all...at Thanksgiving, my family decided that they wanted to do a gift exchange. Now this would have worked for any other family, but my GHETTO-ASS family always has to fuck some shit up.....

They decide to include the T & J. Okay, T is 11 and J is 9. When are they going to have money to buy presents? My sister has 1 daughter who is 15 so at least she can earn some cash-ola. Then my ever-so-trifling-father and his new white wife show up. FABULOUS. So E didn't want to be rude and exclude them so they got included. Bottom line. T had to buy for my sister, J had to buy for my niece, E had to buy for my mom, and I had to buy for the "new white wife". Bottom line, I had to buy for 7 people including my kids and E, while everyone else had 1 or 2 people. Why am I the one with the biggest family, yet shouldering most of the expense? Why were the kids included, aren't kids ALWAYS excluded because everybody knows they aint' got no damn money? Nope, not according to my family. Then they set minimum spending limit of $30. What kid has $30?????

Sooooo, on top of that, I send an e-mail out 2 weeks before Christmas with the menu. My mom gets a free 2 lb. turkey breast every year from her company. So she's bringing that, and some damn potatoes. That's it. Now tell me how is that going to feed 13 people? So long-story-short, E and I end up buying the equivalent of 3 whole chickens and frying them up so everyone can get some meat. We also made a cake, potato salad, greens, Macaroni & Cheese and bought some soda. My sister, brought a salad and cake. My mom, scalloped potatoes and her little free turkey breast. Well, everybody FUCKED the CHICKEN UP and left the turkey breast there. Then my mom took the shit back home! Once again, we have the biggest family, yet shoulder the largest expense. It wouldn't be so bad if this was the only year, but its like this at EVERY holiday, EVERY year. McShady, also known as my father, and his new white wife decided to go spend Christmas with her family, but didn't bother to tell any fuckin body that shit. So he was supposed to bring candied yams, soda and ice-cream and he didn't the fuck up. For those of you that don't know, that is my dad's M.O. He MAY show up, he may not - you just gotta wait and see. So I buy the new white wife a present, and she doesn't even show up. No call, no e-mail. So I got no present, and her shit, is going right back to Target. Ya got me bent!!!

My sister's boyfriend had E and he's a cheap mo-fo. He got E a burned David Banner CD, a burned copy of the Butterfly Effect and the computer game Myst, which came out in 1998. Umm, wasn't the limit $30? How is burned copies of shit, costing money? E was so pissed off he didn't even want to let him eat our food. Then on top of that, that mo-fo took a gang of the leftover fried chicken home before he left!!! Black people, I tell ya....we be some triflin peeps sometimes!

McShady called me Friday and left me a voice mail, I didn't even return the call. How you gone call me the day AFTER Christmas with some bullshit? Wasn't the proper thing to do to let somebody know BEFORE hand? This is one of the MANY reasons why I am so cool off his ass, he is trife and selfish, as always.

So anway, the good part is that this will be the LAST year we go through this shit. People really ain't gonna like me next year because if they don't bring, they ain't eatin'!!!!
