Still dealing with fall-out from the wedding. Since the bride and the MOH had a huge fight, I was told to delete the MOH from my FB account. Oh well, she seemed like such a nice girl, but not worth the drama that has embedded itself into my life.
thank you!

oh boy. You are right that it is not worth the drama to not delete her, but I can't imagine telling my MIL who she can be FB friends with.

We're off to the dentist.

I can't tell you, it's too embarrassing.

ETA: Anchor newswoman might be stretching it a bit. More like ditzy-ish weather woman.

That's who I was thinking it was. I wouldn't feel too bad because she layed it on REAL thick for a while there. The same thing happened with Christina Ferrer. (John DeLorian's ex.) She was on local TV prior to his getting busted and everyone thought her life was all sunshine and roses. Including me. Then he got busted. She stood by him then BOOM kicked his behind out of the house the day after the verdict.

Don't feel bad. We all get taken in. ALL of us. That's part of what the MO is so they'll get you to turn in every morning.

p.s. DH HATES you know who.

Indeed. And prior to our lives becoming mirror images, I would never have been envious. But it was really my own insecurity that was doing it. I hate to say it, but I was tremendously relieved when I realized that it was not as wonderful as reported. Which is kind of mean. But it put a bit of perspective into place (too much effing perspective, to quote Spinal Tap).

Welcome to being perfectly normal.

(The cause for worry would have been if you had broken down in tears when you found out she wasn't living a perfect life.)

Thanks Dew.

Though you may be the first person to ever call me perfectly normal.

The "demanding one" aka the bride. Saddest part is that the MOB felt it necessary to pass on the comments of the MOH to the honeymooning couple. If MOB ain't happy, ain't nobody allowed to be happy.
