Full moon of emotions?

Last night I had a mini-meltdown (mini because it only lasted about 45 minutes)
I had come home from work at my regular time, but I knew I had to eat and get changed fast for my 7:00 weight class, so I was rushing! Well, usually rushing means forgetting about something, and I forgot about my food! And burnt it on the stove! Shizzz! Oh well, I scraped off all (ok, most) of the carsinogens and proceeded to eat my burnt dinner before I left. (I knew my clothes (and the house!) wreaked of burnt toast, but what could I do?

I proceeded to go to class as usual (no one commented on my new aroma, thank goodness!) I got home a little later then usual because I got caught up talking to a member on my way out of the gym. When I finally did get home, I was worried that Collin might think the house was on fire so as soon as I got in the house I said "Collin, guess what? I burnt 2 slices of toast before I left for my class today!" And he replied in a fairly agressive tone "That doesn't surprise me!"
Instantly I thought, "Does he think I'm a complete idiot all the time?" And without a second thought, I stormed upstairs to cry my eyes out! I was MAD!

I proceeded to have a shower and then tucked myself in to bed and cryed some more... I was hoping Collin would come upstairs to check on me to see why I wasn't coming downstairs to cuddle... Finally after I got back up and went to blow-dry my hair, I see Collin emerge into the bathroom "What's wrong, My Love?" he asks. "You are!" I said bauling! "If you are having a bad day, why are you taking it out on me???" And I explained why I was so upset. He sincerely apologized and said "I never meant for that remark to make you feel bad! What I meant was "I know, I can smell it!" ... I wish he'd have just SAID that!

I told him next time he hurts my feelings I'm just going to call him out, and be like "Shut up, *sshole!" LOL That might clue him in that what he's saying isn't appropriate, you think?


I'm blaming this rush of emotions on the full moon that's on it's way in!

Family Gift Exchange

My Easter weekend was great overall... got to visit with my Grandpa and Grandma from my Mom's side, got to see my brother Joe and he got to meet Collin, and it was great seeing and visiting with all my extended family (Aunts, Uncles and Cousins) which just doesn't seem to happen often enough. We got a bunch of family pictures taken also which will be probably sent out to us in a week or so (my Aunty Carla's sister took them). I didn't take any pictures while I was there... I was too busy visiting. (Jenny, I know Dad got some pics. Ask him to upload them to Flickr for you to see too! You will barely recognize Aunty Marg!!!)

All in all it was a great time, except for Collin... He is soo shy until he starts drinking. He definitely had a LOT too much to drink and he started to act like a complete DICK! He made me pretty upset and we left the party at midnight because he started to get mad that everyome was drinking his diet Coke. (Yeah, pathetic reason to get mad at people you barely know!) So since he was being such a loser I decided to remove him from the scene. I was mad at him because, and I told Collin, "I barely ever get to see these people, and they are my FAMILY! If you have a problem with them, then you have a problem with me!!!" (I'm not sure I'm totally over it yet either.) I just don't understand why he would say some of the things he said, drunk or not!
The next morning he apologized and told me the next time we visit with my family he won't drink. (I think that will be best for everyone involved!)
I hope this is not a red flag that I'm dismissing as a one-time occurence.

What do you think? Is this something that I should make a bigger deal of or was he drinking because he felt uncomfortable around all the strangers?
