It was 9.30 last night and I finished putting away all of the clean laundry, I suddenly thought "F*cking hell! I'm a bloody housewife!" Now before anyone gets the wrong idea, I was not doing housework all day into the dead of night and instead I am a 'victim' of my own pisspoor time management. There were invites to sort for the impending christening, blogging to do, a 45 minute bitching session with Nac, amongst other pressing matters... As I listened to the bro explain lengthily about his love of Girls of the Playboy Mansion and "booty clapping" to the boyf, I stopped feeling worried that not going to work is making my brain go soft....
With less than 3 weeks to go until the bambino's christening, it is only a matter of time till I go into meltdown. Sometimes it feels like we're always in the middle of the next big thing. As I visusalise most of our families coming together, (the boyf's, my ma's, and my dads) I hear circus music as this has the possibility of fireworks...explosions even... This is going to be one big crackfest and I'm curious as to what's going to go down.
Will my ma and dad be speaking to each other or will she be scared that he'll show her up like he did at my birthday? Will there be fight for Caribbean or African supremacy? Will there be a dance off? Will the bambino do a poo during the baptism? Who will get pissed out of their head and say something inappropriate? Will the grandmothers be competing? Will my ma be having a hot date? Will the boyf and I be hiding at the back of the room snickering to ourselves at the mayhem of our beloved friends and family? Will there be a fight for the jerk chicken and patties? Cue dramatic music and closing credits.... Hmm I may need a holiday after this christening...or a security detail....
Ooh, before I forget...I am finally getting round to redesigning my blog so if you land here over the next few days and think I'm on crack, it's just a temporary glitch...

Your life makes me giggle in a good way!
I assume you will be thoroughly disappointed if it turns out to be a completely normal christening then... :P
Lauren
I agree with you Lauren...but knowing her family and his, there is bound to be some drama!
My family is ALL loud drama.
My husband's family members are as shy and un-dramatic as people can be.
We've never had our two families in the same room together. Oi! I shudder to think of it. It would traumatize my in-laws forever.
Oh, and I'm counting on the sweetest, most angelic little christening pictures of the bambino being added to your online album.
You have to love families for their complete drama and inappropriate behaviour. Hope the christening goes well. Look forward to hearing all about it.
hi sistalove. i am sure that whatever goes down at the bambino's christening, it will make the blog headlines. looking forward to the main event. enjoy the time with bf, bambino, and the wild and no so wild family and friends. it is a life filled with complex characters made from a collage of experiences. peace, ananda
