My Baby Shower

Tweet

So I guess I am writing this just to vent... on Sunday I had my baby shower for my little girl. I had my mom, her man, my dad and lil sister, my cousin and her man, my older sister with her man, my man, his brother and his girlfriend and my mans friends Justin, Danny and Jed here. Well, I had invited quite a bit more people which included my best friends and some friends from High School. Well, we had a total of over 30 people coming but the people that showed up were the ones up on the top of this discussion. It was going to be a BBQ because no one was really "throwing me a shower" which was weird in itself. Well... to get to the story... everyone canceled at the last minute (basically within an hour of people coming over) and then the people that did show up (besides my family) were all about the booze... they acted like it was a friday night bash at my house... which ticked me off... My man got so drunk that he blacked out, didnt remember a thing and scared the crap out of me because he started to twitch and stuff like that (which I will get into more later), my sister decided she was going to flirt with everyone at the party even though her man was here and that was driving me crazy too and then the latest... my mans wallet and our checkbook got stolen... great friends huh? Well what happened was my man was suppose to be the one in charge of BBQing everything... that didnt happen since he decided he was going to drink for the next year. So his brother was put in charge of it *which didnt turn out that way* ... he cooked just enough so him and his woman could eat and then stopped and ended up talking (in the bathroom no less) to my man *which seemed like hours *especially for a pregnant woman who has to pee all the time* ... then I started to babysit... my man of course... since remember - he blacked out... well I hadnt seen my cousin for a few months (since the beginning of May) or my dad (almost 17 months) and I didnt even get to spend time with them. I ended up watching John instead (my man) because first he was so drunk he couldnt talk or walk. Then he broke a lightbulb in his hand and was bleeding... but wouldnt let anyone clean or look at it. Then passes out (standing up no less) in his closet. Well I got a phone call from him while I was trying to talk to my dad and cousin and it was from him but there was no answer on the other end, so I went in to see what he wanted... he ended up falling over in the closet and breaking glass all over the closet. So I go and get my moms man to help me get him up (he is too heavy for me to lift - especially pregnant) well by this time my cousin had ended up leaving because my sister and her flirting. well, my sister, my moms man and I got John out of the closet and onto the bed where he slept for a good 4 hours (this whole time I am watching him and when everyone left (which was about 7:30 at night) he started twitching... I finally got him to talk to me... but he was repeating himself and acting really weird - finally talked myself into calling an ambulance... they get here and he refuses to go with them, so they give him a breathalizer... 4-1/2 hours AFTER he quit drinking he blew a .157 ... they didnt do anything else, just left him in my care. Well he is still pretty wasted at this point and cannot walk because when we went to lift him a vacuum got in the way and so we ended up hurting his back (which I do not feel bad for) he ended up going back outside and throwing up (which is what I told him to do in the first place when he started the conversation with his brother in the bathroom instead) and passing out outside. It gets pretty cold here at night now, 35 degrees farenheit or somewhere around there so I threw a jacket on him (I was cold I know that and I didnt need him freezing... this whole time I am trying to watch a 16 month old while trying to drag a 225 pound 6'1 man around the house cause he cant decide what he wants to do and where he wants to go. Finally get my son to go into the bedroom without screaming and go to check on John. He is passed out outside on the deck... trying to wake someone up with a .157 alcohol level is pretty difficult... I finally get him up and into the house where he goes in the middle of the living room floor and passes out. I left him there, went and got my son, got him something to drink and laid him in bed with me for a little bit (his dad scared him) finally getting him calmed down I bring him into his room and into his crib (about 11:30 pm or so) and go and lay down myself. Not sleeping well because of this I woke up quite a few times and checked to see if he was doing okay (both him and my son) then would go lay back down. Get up yesterday around 9 and he is awake (somewhat) and not knowing what happened. Told him I was mad at him and told him some things that happened but he didnt remember... oh the best part... I got gifts from my family... no one else... my mom and her man and my cousin brought clothes for the baby, my sister gave me $20 and my dad brought us food. I opened 2 gifts... the rest was given to me like it was nothing... I did end up calling my cousin and dad and apologizing for the whole day and to tell them I was embarrassed by John's little charade he did. Oh and the checkbook and wallet were in our bedroom... the only people alone in this room with John when he was passed out were his brother and John's friends - no one else. So I had to call and cancel my cards and checks that night (I think I did this around 12-12:30 am) Fun day huh?! I so badly wanted to just scream at everyone and everything... I didnt enjoy myself at all!! I wish I would've been able to but apparently I have to babysit 25 year old men who think that baby showers are all about drinking. Well thanks for listening to my rant. LOL I hope it was enjoyable lol
