At least my face wasn't swollen - it was on Saturday. I looked like the fucking elephant man. I woke up from a nap, went to the loo, looked at myself in the mirror and burst into tears.
I hope Aunt L has learned her lesson, too. And you definitely have a point - she could have said no. But I just think it is so much more dishonorable to take advantage of the one person you know won't say no.
======== me:
Wow. I've heard they put peanuts in everything...so having a peanut allergy must suck BIGTIME!!
That was the worst part of having the mumps--fever & achey-icky feeling was bad, but the whole facial disfigurement was the WORST. I'm so vain...seriously, if anything ever happened to my face, I would just jump off a cliff.
Now that Brother A & The Rubber Pig don't have anybody in Austin they're using for anything, we probably won't hear from them for weeks/months. Until The Rubber Pig announces her next blessed event, I bet. I'm glad it's considered terribly gauche for a family member to throw a baby shower. :P
ps: Oh, forgot to tell you: apparently the children have decided to call me "Aunt Eek" out of the various options Brother A presented them with.
