BM2 wants one of DH's shirts...

Cooooookies's picture

She is coming to England to visit with SS13 for a few days in the first week of December. SS13 was having his once a week 5 minute chat with her on Skype today. During the usual blah blah blah of conversation BM2 suddenly says "Ask your dad to pack one of his big tshirts so I have something to sleep in while I'm visiting."

Both DH and I were in the next room and just looked at each other like WTactualF?!?!

SS13 thought nothing of it because he's blissfully clueless. Who actually does that? Asks for one of their exes shirts??? She wants a shirt she can ask her boyfriend.

What. A. Tool. Ya can't even make this sh*t up!

There is nothing but evil intent in that one! Whew! She either wants to be reminded of his smell, or leave hers all over the shirt and return it so he can be reminded of hers. I do believe that to make a point I would head to the skeeziest thrift store around (you know, the one where the clothes all have holes and smell a little off) and get her a funky 50 cent 3XL shirt with graphics say highlighting the animal shelter, an attorney, roto-rooter...

Oooo! A pissing match! Yup, she wants to mark her territory.
Go the random shirt path or ... to be really evil ... offer her some of your old PJs (you were going to throw out or afford to lose). SS will go along with it when you say it would be awful for his mother to come ALL THIS WAY and have to wear men's nightwear. How unwelcoming would that be. Anyway, men wear men's clothes and women wear women's clothes.

Oh, I love this! Yes, totally. Or, you can buy something hideous off the clearance rack for SS to give her as a gift. New Jammie's for Christmas. You know, because if she doesn't have any wouldn't it be nice to get her some? Lol

She doesn't realize that I'M the one that packs SS13's bag every time she visits.

So since she says she has, in the past, worn SS13's pajama bottoms and made SS wear jogging bottoms to bed AND she's setting up a Piss-On-My-Territory-And-See-If-I-Can-Get-My-Ex-To-Say-How-High-When-I-Say-Jump game, I am packing the following:

2 pairs of jeans so she can't make him wear jogging bottoms to bed
4 of SS's shirts that she won't be able to wear
and a pajama onesie size 13-14 that BM2 would be way too tall to wear as she's about 5ft7-5ft8

I cannot believe I have to resort to these things. She left him TEN years ago! This is ridiculous.

Hahaha! Get her some random raggedy t shirt from goodwill. Better yet, get her one of YOUR old clothes and douse it with your perfume.

Evil plan:

Go to a discount store and find a lacy/satiny chemise or teddy. Buy it in a size 0 or something that she won't be able to stuff herself into.

Cut out the labels, pack that for her, and say "I heard you didn't have pajamas. I was going to get rid of this thing I've had for so long, so I thought I'd give it to you instead. Enjoy! (sign name)"

She'd be absolutely fuming.

OH I KNOW! DH is English and BM2 is Scottish but I'm American. I'll find a big ol' American flag or Made In The USA tshirt. Sleep tight, BM2!! }:) Blum 3

Get a tee shirt made with one of you and his cheesy vacation photos on it and then wash it a bunch of times so it looks old. Attach a note that says sweet dreams.

Try salvation army on their mark down day. Find the ugliest, worn and faded shirt or one with a saying on it that fits the occassion. You will be doing good by supporting a worthy cause and she could end up wearing some stranger's shirt with a sarcastic saying.

She has heaps of clothes. She also has a boyfriend that she could pinch a shirt from. It has nothing to do with clothes and everything to do with marking "her" territory and seeing if she can still make DH dance if she pulls the puppet strings.

Devil's butthole...
