What did I get myself into? My mom and defacto stepfather are gonna be here any moment. What the hell am I gonna do with them this weekend? I'm just in a Stay-In-My-Basement-And-Sulk mood. I just want to doodle and play with guns and watch movies and I gotta entertain the parents.

On the plus side, I might be able to talk the stepdad into going shooting. He had a blast with my bb machine gun when I lived in Cincinnati.

I'm drinking red wine. At least that's going well so far.

Have fun, went on a Caribbean cruise with my in-laws Easter week. Luckily I get along with them well. Alcohol always makes it easier to deal with it.

Yeah, well imagine Dr Ruth. That's my mom essentially, a tiny Jewish psychiatrist. And she likes wine. Maybe I should get my mom tanked.

Screw that...get tanked yourself!

Now then, tell us about that high fiber diet of yours

Take 'em to Meijers Gardens and show 'em Leonardo's Horse. Great place for the old folks, I like it. Of course when I go I want to shoot up the sculpture so the wife makes me leave the .38 in the car. I shoot things with a finger gun to annoy her.

Another place is the Henry Ford and Greenfield Village. For something different your could bliss out on robotics and technology taking the Ford River Rouge Plant Tour. I'd also think about casinos, Greektown or the Windsor over in Canukia, but check on ID requirements before you go over the border, I carry a passport myself.

Other strange stuff nearby is the Amish down in Shipshewana, they have a flea market during the week. And from GR all the stuff in Chicago is close enough, the Adler Planetarium, the Shedd Aquarium, the Field Museum and the Museum of Science and Industry.

Judge, just relax keep drinking it's gonna be Okay. I know just how you feel the drink will help!!!!!

get fighting drunk and vomit on them. they'll stop visiting.

Dude - sure-freaking-fire.

Family fun day at the range.

I'm spending the weekend with my p's also... I feel your pain. My dad likes his vodka so it'll not be all bad...

Wine 1, JP 0. Mom had one glass so I finished the rest (one of those 1500ml bottles). That's enough to leave me hanging these days.

I liked Dr. Ruth, an old lady with a very young mind who was not afraid to talk about all those sexual taboos. Eat, drink and be merry and keep the guns in the safe unless your folks like a day at the range. It's not forever, just think about your next gun purchase and you can survive.

It was better than I thought. Never made it to the range but I did score a bunch of kick ass dark chocolate at a candy store.

No, but I did have asparagus on Friday and Saturday. You could definitely smell me coming.
