You know how sometimes you get involved in a situation that starts out surreal and you just know it's going to end badly?

I'm not talking everyday surreal, I'm talking once in a lifetime stuff. So anyway, Crash's (slightly older than us) step-brother and his wife have been here this week (which is why we really haven't been around, but they left to go back to the O.C. today, they live in "the Hills", and our lives are getting back to normal, with Crash even wanting to play Halo tonight) and we've been spending time with them. They're fun to be around, smart (his stepbrother was an Annapolis grad and a Navy fighter pilot, now he's an engineer at Disneyland) and we've been having a great time while they were here. Anyway, yesterday we went over to Crash's parents (where they've been staying) to eat a big old dinner and play games. Crash's mom had bought the videogame version of "The Newlywed Game" and was dying for us to play it. As soon as she pulled it out Crash and I both got that deer in the headlights look, we were across the room from each other mouthing "oh my god, no". See, we both remember the horribly invasive questions that were asked back when we watched it as small children. After the first round of questions and only being embarassed once (Men, use 2 words to describe your wife's chest), I thought it might not be so bad, inspite of playing this IN FRONT OF their parents.
Next up was the turn where the chicks get asked the questions and have to write the answers, and the men get asked the same questions to see if the answer match (that's it, that's how the game works and it's uber embarrassing, trust me). The question was, "What's the strangest thing your husband says when he's feeling romantic." There was no way in hell I was going to put anything serious on my card so after thinking about it, I just wrote "I'm Batman!", figuring I'd go for the humor aspect. It came time to give answers and Crash couldn't come up with anything, his face was bright red, and when I flipped over my card and it said "I'm Batman!" his relief was palpable. He mouthed "thank you"--it could have been really bad. So then his brother answers, some kind of throw away answer. His wife flips over the card and it says "S.M.D. Beyotch!" She's all laughing and saying, "I abbreviated it, but you guys all KNOW it means '"suck my dick'". I swear you could hear a pin drop. She's his 3rd wife and they've only been married a couple of years and she can be pretty crude. I swear, it went from surreal to me looking for a cabinet to hide in, in about 2 seconds flat. Oddly enough, we didn't stay much longer and we just went home.
OMG, what the fuck was she thinking? In front of his parents? If it's true, good for them (judging from the look on my brother in law's face though, it was the first time he ever heard it and supposedly he says it!) I just couldn't believe it. I wanted a hole to open in the floor and just swallow me up.
So, how has everybody else's holidays been going?

Pretty good week. The grandkids tend to hide away in the basement with the computers, but it was good to spend a few days with my daughter.

My holidays have been great :) Smooth christmas, despite the travel involved (and despite the *3* floods that happened, incl. the one in our hotel)
