Pray for me...
Girlfriend's family always does a huge Christmas party on Christmas Eve at their place and invite a lot of their friends and my family too, which is great, but now I'm told that apparently their party will now be at my house. She sprung this up on me last night. So now instead of cooking one thing and bringing it over for a potluck like we do every year I'm now in charge of grilling everything(GFs father and brother have volunteered to help me to take some of the pressure off) and cooking almost all the sides(your standard stuffing, casseroles, pies, etc.). When I asked about why it's at our place all of a sudden she said that her family wanted to "try something new" this year. More like try my patience. I've put my foot down and told my future MIL that they need to cook 75% of the side dishes since I literally do not have time. I've told them multiple times that I'll be in the office most of that day on Christmas Eve getting some last minute work done since we'll be closed that next week and I'll be on vacation until January 3rd.
If it's your party, go all out and invite me and others, but don't fucking volunteer us to host at the last god damn minute! Going to be knocking back egg nog with Jack Daniels to get ready for this disaster. Oh yeah, they haven't given me a guest list or head count either yet.
