The Chit Chat Chit Chat Thread

More or less. There are still some items left that he has to pick up, which I put outside on the side of the house. Plus vinyl records that we need to split, and he still has my CDs. But I figure that can happen later, when hopefully things will be more settled.

The drama began with an incident on Sunday, though, because I heard him tell our daughter they were moving that day, which I wasn't too upset about, but then I asked him about the security cameras outside, if he was leaving them. That's when he said he wasn't moved out completely yet. So I told him then our daughter wasn't moving either. Unfortunately it turned rather ugly and our poor daughter was in tears, while he's recording me talking to her as she's sitting in his van with the door locked, so I couldn't even hug her good-bye. Then he mumbles something about just going over to his new place, seeing how things go and they left. Next thing I know he emails me and tells me she wants to stay there, so I say it's OK for one night only, but he responds he's keeping her all week and I'll get her for the weekend. I forward all the emails to my lawyer, who tells me yesterday that I needed to pick up my daughter early from school and keep her overnight, in order to establish the fact that I did not agree to his so-called parenting plan and show him that I will not put up with his carp. He said he normally would not advise doing this, but in this case he felt it was extremely important that I do so. Thus, yesterday was a horribly stressful day for me and my daughter, but in the end we had a temporary custody agreement in place until the court hearing in March.

But of course it didn't end there. Last night around 10:40pm Mr. Donkey texts me that since I took our daughter he would keep her until Saturday, which was NOT in the agreement (I'm supposed to have her starting Friday after school through Monday morning). So I had to forward all our texts to my lawyer, which included him saying he would enter the house without me, even though I told him I changed the locks. My lawyer threatened another ex parte notice unless Mr. Donkey was going to honor our agreement in good faith. It took a couple hours, but his lawyer said Mr. Donkey is not insisting on having our daughter on Friday and the agreement will be honored. At least for now until he does the next stupid thing.

So when's the party???

Oh dear. I am so sorry. What a mess.

OK gang, time for me to hit the hay...



Sweet, Magical dreams to all...!
Laterrrrrrr...!!!

So that blizzard might impact me.

My flight back is scheduled for Sunday night. My parents are flying back Monday. School, however, might not start when scheduled as residents are supposed to move back in over the weekend. If they can't move in, obviously we can't start classes. My flight is eligible to be rescheduled without a fare change. So...I might go home a day later than expected. Will know for sure when school announces something tomorrow.

oh wow.. he really doesnt know when to stop..
he seems incredibly toxic and vengeful.

 

[Cesar R M]

So very glad to hear she is still OK.
Sympathies about the car, but, hopefully they'll fix it right, like they promised.

Similar happened to me and my brand new '85 Mustang GT. It was about 2 months old when I was rear-ended sitting at a light. I was so pi**ed! I got outta' the car and started heading back to the other drivers car fuming when, all of a sudden, I saw this very petite, very pregnant young woman come out of the drivers side door. Well, that deflated me real quick, and all I wanted to do was make sure she was OK. She was crying, and I told her not to worry, carp happens.
Talk about calming the wild beast...!

I hope she still paid the damage XD

lots of luck.. having planes rescheduled isnt fun.

 

[Cesar R M]

ohh, before I forget.. another update to my trip report, we're almost done!

 

[StarWarsGirl]

Nope, not a bit. The good thing is that somce it's just me, it'll be easier to find a seat on a plane. The only bad thing would be if I can't get out of here until Tuesday. Then I'll be here...by myself.

I'm sick though and unsure whether I'll make it out the door tomorrow, so I wouldn't mind an extended trip. I was thinking I was about due to be sick because I haven't been sick in months other than the ocassional cold (seriously, the only time I missed work and school was for my hand surgery; I went to my allergist for a check up when I realized I hadn't seen him in six months), but of course I get sick...now.

 

[catmom46]

Yes, he's really angry and just doesn't know how to deal with it. It's very sad because he can be a very thoughtful and caring person, but when he feels wronged, he doesn't know how to forgive and move on. That's why he doesn't have many close people in his life anymore.

Uh-oh! I hope it doesn't turn into something awful. Get lots of rest and drink fluids!

Ugh, I am so sorry you are going through this. At least he is gone, and I hope you really have changed the locks.

"Mr. Donkey"? That's kind of funny. I used to work with a girl who referred to her ex as "The Maggot".

Yeah, I can't remember now who came up with Donkey on this thread. The full name is Mr. Donkey Jerk Face, although Maggot is pretty accurate, too.

I have heard of "The Lamprey" and "The Leech" (because the ex used to latch toxically and suck all the good things of their victims.

[Figgy1]

I can arrange for the palm tree and the umbrella drink, you're on your own with the hammock and Florida, sorry to say.

Thank you!

 

[Figgy1]

I wish! Mr. Donkey is technically moved out, but not without lots more drama. I'll provide more info tonight after work. Stay tuned!

Sympathy like! He really should visit scenic Joisey!

The car I cried over losing was a 68 Mustang. At least I wasn't in the car at the time. I should have realized it was bad news when my mom took me up the street to the local bar and bought me a double shot and told me to drink up!
