Follow-up
The heat in my office has kind of been fixed. This means, of the two heating elements we have (one regular, one baseboard around the floor at the very large drafty windows) one of them now works. This allows the temperature to at least hover near 68 degrees for part of my work day, which I can handle. I do, however, have jeans and a sweatshirt on today partly because it still does get cold in here occasionally and partly because I'm sick. I'm not surprised. I would assume that sitting in hypothermic conditions for 5 weeks straight would tend to suck the power out of your immune system. Think I can get my office to pay for my medicine?
The email has been deleted. While I know this was the best, most mature, most responsible decision I could have made, I have to say it sucks. It's times like these that I wish I were a little more of a bitch and I could have told him to fuck off instead. Thanks guys, for keeping me in line....and ruining my fun.
I spent the weekend with The Thing. Went to his office Christmas party, met some more of his friends, and met his family. Yep, did the big old meet-the-parents thing this weekend. They didn't throw me out or fork the sign of the evil eye at me so I think I'm good. And...more importantly...he loves me too...
The Paperweight nice streak has run it's course. He informed me last night that due to some extra bills that have come up for him, he doesn't think he can afford to give me this month's child support. I know what you're thinking; something along the lines of 'mother fucking son of a whore', right? Well...you'd be right. However, I have to end with a laugh. And where The Paperweight is involved there is always humor.
He ended his i-suck-with-money-so-i'm-not-giving-you-the-court-ordered-support-payment-2-weeks-before-christmas speech with,
[drum roll please]
"You're okay with money on you're own, aren't you? You don't really need me to give you any, right?"

And you said, "Of course, I am fine with no money. Before Christmas. When I need an extra sweater at work."
And you said it with a smile.
Right?
You and the kids should MAKE his Christmas present. Cut out snowflakes from paper and hang them from string. Merry effin Christmas Dad! The bastard!
You need to ask him what he's getting the kids for Christmas so you don't duplicate anything. I'm sure he'll expect you to be Santa Claus. Cripes, the nerve of this guy.
Grrrrrr!!!
Of course you're fine on your own with money, I mean, you don't actually have bills to pay, and you weren't getting the children christmas presents anyways, right? Ergg. Been through this, so sorry he's doing it to you.
I hope I'm sensing a garnishment in the process.
I don't know why the courts don't make the payee go thru the state so that the person recieving the funds doesn't have this type of hastle.
I actually went to the courts and asked to go through the state...only I did it because I didn't want to have my daughter come asking..."mom wants to know if she can have her money early" anymore.
Hope it gets better for ya.
Lord, what a jerk...you should have replied "nope, I don't need the money, the kids are fine living without food and shelter"
ugh...men have no freakin clue
pssst i'm postin from the library..so i must type very very quietly
