Not drunk, but needed to vent. My mother-in-law is one of those nagger types. I smoke *1* cigar a day outside when I get home from work, and that's not even every day as I sometimes skip a day here and there. She always complains about the smell two floors up so to this day I call her to tell her when I am going to smoke and she closes the windows. I was a single guy living on my own when I met my wife and we lived together in my place happily for 5 or 6 years. Her mother used to rent the 1st floor out but people kept recking the place so after renovating the 1st floor she asked us if we want to move in. I refused for a full year all the while she kept dropping the price of rent offering. Eventually it was too good to pass up and I'd thought we could save and move to my dream state of Hawaii eventually - but that's another story.
Anyhow, so today I brew my Belgian Wit and make a starter for the wife's Weizenbock. I clean up and *after* cleaning I get a call asking, "Petew... are you making da beer? Dee whole house stink...". I didn't spell that wrong, I'm jokingly trying to phonetically do her polish accent. I'm part Polish too so there's no offense meant there. I tell her, "Well I was brewing but I ended about 2 hours ago". And again she reiterates how she smells it so I told her to open her windows.
Here's the thing that really ticks me off... sometimes when she cooks the whole house smells like the armpit of a Guatemalan prison guard!! Literally the house wreaks a horrible horrible smell. But do I call her and complain?? No, of course not. I am a paying tenant yet I let her be.
I'm done with that as of today. If she's going to complain constantly I am going to complain as well every single chance I get. I'm officially at war now cause I'm sick of it. Even her marriage is ruined and her husband lives in the attic because he couldn't take it anymore. OK, /rantoff
