Because I'm a---VAM-pye-ahhhh!!!!

Well, this is day three of Natalie's runny disaster. It's about 20% better now. We took her to this urgent care place at Ford rd and Beech Daly, and they told me not only that I just have to ride it out, but that those are her front teeth they were just coming in outer corners first AND she's got both eyeteeth along with another one back on the ( Read more... )

It is. I haven't gotten ahold of them yet to see their pricing or whatever, though. We may end up at the Little Wedding Chapel in Taylor, and I know it's very shallow but I'm having a hard time with the idea of getting married in Taylor.

Yup, us divorcees seem to like thinking marriage sucks...I still do, personally; but I guess you can't keep your experiences out of your opinions now matter how hard you try.

Now, family? That I can preach about. Smart People Shalt Not EVER ignore the family of their significant others, especially when contemplating signing legally-binding contracts that make them your problem too. If you want to be married to him enough (note: I did NOT say "if you love him enough") that you're willing to deal with his family (at the very least when you have to, which you will), bravo and yippie. But do ask yourself, and do think about it; in-laws can be...an experience.

Mine were so...wow...that people have actually paid to publish stories about them, no lie. ;)

Best of luck with all hang in there through Runny Hell (wow have I been there!).

I do understand where you personally are coming from. I always thought that your ex was a pompous ******** I'm censoring myself because he is still the father of your child and all that. He always came off like he thinks he's such hot shit and superior to everyone, especially women. I do think there's something to be said for the traditional male and female roles, I don't like this androgynous thing that's being pushed the last few years, I'm sick of wussy boys (Note:I don't care who I offend by that, offended people should watch Fight Club..the part especially where Brad Pitt talks about his generation of boys being raised by their mothers). But you and G were MAN and wife, not HUSBAND and WIFE. You know? I'm sure you know better than I do.
I remember D talking to me about how things were for you and I wanted to rip G's face off, that was like 3 years ago!
I guess I'm saying I don't blame you for your opinion about marriage, but I know for a fact that you have definitely picked someone who's at least going to treat you nicely this ( ... )

Actually, not to start a huge discussion that would probably be a lot more fun in person (*g*), but my low opinion of marriage is based mostly on how hard it turned out to be to get *out* of. Gary and I may have been horribly mis-matched, but we sure didn't know it at first -- we really took our time and tried to do things right, and it worked for better than five years, heh. But in spite of how easy our divorce was--we agreed on everything--it still ended up being a real mess trying to undo that mistake. It cost almost ten grand (and that's with me getting free legal services, thanks to my dad) and took more than six months, and you end up with the legal system (and how much money you can scrape together) determining the details of your personal life ( ... )

Why are we so cool online, but awkward in person? :P mommyissa November 25 2004, 21:05:13 UTC

I agree with. You're her mother & that would seriously piss me off having some stranger deciding things about her. I'd prolly lose it. Ask Dan about how I get with my strong opinions. Ask him about how eventually we absolutely couldn't talk about the death penalty (he's against it, I'm all about eye for an eye), because the fight would last for days. I think it's funny now (like the 24 hour long blow-out about the dictionary), but damn! heheh
That's true it did seem like you & Gary really tried to do things right & maybe they were right at the time, but that time ended...with a vengeance.
By the way what you said earlier about in-laws made a LOT of sense, I wholeheartedly agree. I've done a lot of soul-searching about it, more so after what you said. My conclusion is that while a lot of times his parents are total froot luips (His mom is like Marie Romano from 'Everybody Loves Raymond,' his dad is the dad from 'Rebel Without a Cause'), there are times when they are really great. When he was being a prick for Natalie's first 3 months (he ( ... )
