The day in which things get stranger…
Where to start?
1. The divorce process of my parents continues… they now have joint custody of a house - go figure. Alternate weekends for him and her (just wait it gets stranger)
2. My father's lawyer called me today to see what really happened Christmas Eve night - um, excuse me? (My mother states that my father threatened her with a knife (knife, gun, verbal abuse, hand written emotionally abusive letters, I could go on - what's the difference now?)
"I dunno, I was doing my wash in the basement for starters and I grew up in a screaming household, why would I notice their screaming fights now? Why should their screaming matches be any different, and why would I start to notice them and take detailed notes? Listen, I don't want to be a pain in the ass or anything, but even if I had some juicy piece of info for you I wouldn't share it with you or my mother's lawyer. It's nothing personal I just made a promise to myself not to get involved or show any favoritism by taking sides or providing info that would hurt one party or another."
I see, so you have snow by you too? We laugh. He tells me about his parents' divorce after 37 years of marriage and then asks me out for a drink.
W H A T ?
"That's a little from left field isn't it", he admits. "Um yah, besides you don't know diddle about me and you don't even know what I look like", I blurt out. "Your father showed us a photo of you and your dog" he follows up. (How freaking creepy huh?) …Whatever, too weird for me I tell ya. I declined by the way - how freaky - euuuuuw just thinking about it makes me queasy.
I HAVE A MIGRAINE
I'M HOPING FOR A TON OF SNOWFALL AND THAT I AM STRANDED AT HOME FOR THE FEW DAYS
I JUST WANNA BE ALONE FOR A FEW DAYS.
(I think it's time for a vacation.)
3. Oh, and get this… I have been thinking about the concept of settling down and getting married, and...
G A S P
having a child or two. No, seriously I've warmed up to the idea of weddings, rings, houses, joint- anything, pets, dinner for two or more, the whole barefoot and pregnant thing.
GOOD GOSH, WHO HAVE I BECOME?
QUICK PASS ME A MIRROR, OR SOMETHING.
SICK & TIRED...
OF WAITING FOR ME TO UPDATE?
GET NOTIFIED
(it's easy and you may even get to know me.)
