OMG, Dat Ho's clothes ARE spelled with a K.

We were tempted to spell "clothing" and "coming" with a 'K' in the title in true Kardashian fashion, but we refrained. And you're welcome. First came Kardashian Konfidential...now comes Kardashian Kollection available at Sears!

Afterwards, you can have a big breakfast at the Kuntry Kitchen, then you can go to KOA Kampground.

Oh oh oh...here's a doozy. Kourtney can see sears from her house!

"We love Sears," Kourtney added. "There is a Sears right near our house."

Oh, pukage.

Just illustrating the breadth of your POV. What is insane to me is perfectly suited to Jim. Don't be offended.

So, here I am, a week and two hours post-discovery of the hard left turn my life has taken. Thanks to the support of a whole lot of friends, most of my stuff is now moved (although most of it is packed away in Leslie's garage and basement). She and I are pretty much acting like newlyweds - okay, 50-something newlyweds, so we aren't keeping the neighbors up at night - and squeezing our households together, cleaning and culling as we go.

There are a lot of issues to be surmounted. I still haven't been served with divorce papers yet, so I don't really know what terms Selene is going to be asking for. We have no assets whatsoever. By that I mean that we are upside down on the house, we each own our own ancient cars, and the stuff she took vs the stuff she left me probably balances the scale pretty evenly. I expect the basic outcome to be that I have to pay all the outstanding utility bills (a considerable sum), some portion of the legal costs of the divorce, and any associated costs of short selling the house...as well as having to deal with the sale and presale cleanup of the place.

Overall, with the exception of the house, this is all going down a whole lot less painfully than my first separation and divorce, and for that, I am grateful, because I very nearly took myself out that time. I wish that was hyperbole, but it isn't.

I hate it when terrible things happen, and the victim survives, and people say "Wow, you were really lucky"...because how can walking out of a train wreck broken and bloodied be luck? But I *am* lucky. I have the love of my partner of four years, the respect and support of the community that I have served for the last fifteen years, and an ex wife who seems to not be trying to eviscerate me on the battlefield of divorce.

It could be worse. It could most certainly be worse.

I gotta be honest. I AM offended. What is insane to You is perfectly suited to Me.... Isn't that just reiterating that I'm insane by Your definition? And you say that you're just 'illustrating the breadth of my POV' after stating that it was limited in the previous reply? which is it? just confused... not really bothered. Seems like maybe you're just wriggling because I took exception to what you said to me.

I honestly don't see anything insane about what I said to you there. Or maybe you were just saying that I'm insane in a general way... not specifically about what I said? I know your opinion of me isn't very high..just based on things you've said over the years, but I spent about an hour composing that post, thinking about your situation, and trying to empathize with you. I was not expecting the response to be dismissive and insulting.

I know you have much larger issues to occupy your mind, but I thought I should let you know that this was sticking with me. I'd like to think you intended no offense, and it's just a matter of you thinking I'm a crazy jerk.

I don't really know why that bothers me. I mean.... I knew you thought I was a jerk, but the insane thing? I have to disagree. I'll cop to the jerk part. I know I have been, so I'll own that.

Anyway... I still hope you get through this as easily as possible.

Insane can also mean extravagant/excessive. Perhaps Elspode simply felt that you overanalyzed; or, over identified with his situation for your limited exposure.

Do you still have a motorcycle?

Elspode · 12-04-2011, 09:28 PM

I do, yes indeed. If it weren't Winter, it would be my primary transportation.

Really, Elspode. Ask for the movies that you want back.
