Actually, I jest, I have a really good relationship with the in-laws; especially since they are a continent away. .
Unfortunately and perhaps at times a blessing, I can't get away with saying anything in English since both in-laws received their degrees in the States. It's somewhat amusing to listen to my father-in-law talk because he received his undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Illinois in the late 1950s and early 1960s and he still uses the American slang from that generation. Although he has a slight accent, he speaks absolutely perfect grammatically correct English with a few "Hey man" and "groovy" thrown into the mix. LOL
My wife and I have a running joke. Our relationship is very similar to the “Big Fat Greek Wedding.” I come from your typical W.A.S.P. family; you know 1.5 kids each. Whereas, a typical Sunday lunch at my in-laws in Bogotá is like Woodstock; and that’s just 1st cousins. In my side of the family you only see that many “related” people during either weddings or funerals. LOL
