So if they are smart they will use the weekends of primetime games and the bye weekend to plan family events. Its not that hard and if someone tries to plan something I tell them I have obligations that day and I've had them planned for 5 months.

I actually pissed off my mother and father in law once because they came over unannounced and got offended because I was in the middle of watching a football game. When I approached him latter he said they felt like I ignored them so I responded like this. Sorry if you felt that way but next time I will cut off the game after I have been watching it for 2 1/2 hours so we can chat. He then realized how stupid he sounded.

I hear you but it always baptisms that get me and I am generally always the god parent it is annoying but an honor. I talked with my sister and it looks like she is planning to do it end of August, phew!
