Fi is turning 29 next Friday 5/16. I had already organized a get-together on Tuesday night 5/12 with friends and his siblings/cousins for a Yankees game outing. I asked Fi who I should invite, sent out the link via Facebook and email, called people to follow up. All was well with the world, we will be watching baseball and drinking beer. Yay!
Last week I was hanging out with some of Fi's female family members for a girls night. Fi's cousin's cousin starts fishing for an invite when Fi's cousin brings up the game. The cousin's cousin then proceeds to tell a story about her cousin's cousin not inviting her somewhere and how she was really hurt. Awwwwkward.
Now we can't go to Mother's Day celebrations because they moved it to Brooklyn, and I have to work. I texted FMIL and invited her and FPIL over to our house for dinner on Monday instead so we can have belated Mother's Day. After some back and forth on scheduling (now involving FSIL), they ask why don't they come over on Friday, Fi's bday, instead? I know Fi wanted a date night and I've been planning one, so I told them Friday is not the best.
Now Fi is like, "But if they come over on Friday, I get CAKE." And he still can't decide whether he wants them to come. I want Fi's birthday to be great and be whatever he wants, but really? Why does it have to be this complicated? And yes I know most of this is really nbd.
Somebody please just tell me, as long as there is cake and beer, it will be OK.
Edited to clarify dates.
