So something somewhat uspetting happened to my husband last night. 
His mother called this morning, so he called her back and now he is telling her all about it, why I don't know. She's nearly 80 and she over-reacts about everything, worry wort kind of person. Infact she spends all her time worrying from what she says. Half hour after she's off the phone with him, the entire family will be notified as if it is important. Any drama tale is always welcomed.
Now his family, who never call us and are not interested in having a real relationship will crank up the drama wagon and be calling all week with their crocidile tears and wailing and ganshing of teeth, just because it is their M.O. They love drama, they love pumping something out of proportion but not interested in any real emotional connection with other people.
In the middle of pumping the drama horn, they will manage to drop all sorts of underhanded insults and digs at him (she's doing it right now, I hear his defensive tone and his pained explainations) and then I will have to deal with the fallout for weeks, he changes when he has too much contact with them.
I am so biased against these people. I guess that's not very pretty, but it is true.
