Oh my god.. I cannot ... I take that back.. I do not want to believe that my son is in the same gene pool as those people.. I swear to god my in-laws must thrive on chaos, inconsiderateness, and gossip... I'll get to the other to in another post, but I'll start with the former today...
So my sister-in-law - the one that needed my father in law to drive to Boston to pick her up - decided pretty much at the last minute that she was going to come up here so that she could attend a wedding of a cousin of ours. Before sorting out where she was going to move, her paperwork with the new job, etc. I have to admire her blind fate that everything will work out, but holy cows the hoops that she has to jump through doing everything always on the spur of the moment.
She actually managed to get a place sorted out (over the phone no less, and the place actually didn't turn out to be that bad - as far as we know right now). She even got her contract with the new place worked out - not too shabby considering that she is here in Canada right now, and the job is down in Connecticut.
But apparently blind faith and the US Immigration don't have a bilateral agreement, and so the few bits of photocopied papers that she had trying to prove (a) that she was allowed to be working down in the states and (b) Immigration should have never seized her paper work when she came up to visit, didn't quite up to the results she was hoping for.
It is dizzying trying to keep up with all of her adventures. No wonder my PIL think she still needs to be taken care of (not really, but what an exhausting lifestyle!).
