yeah, my parents both suck. If you like DRAMA its worth reading this. and no, I cant make an abriged version.
I have known since I was 10 that they were gonna seperate.... they are just WAY too diffrent. anyways, about 9 months ago they decided to try a "marriage sabbatical", but before that happened they just decided to get divorced. woo hoo, I didnt see THAT one coming :rolleyes:.
so my mom has to stay here because if she moves before the divorce is legally done, it can be said that she "abandoned" the house, and my dad would be able to keep EVERYTHING. They agreed to be civil about it, and they both think that the other one wont try to jip them, but they are just trying to be safe. you have to understand that my dad gets "short term" angry easily, but tends not to get "long term" angry at all, unless someone uses him, and my mom is a cuban bhuddist psychotherapist, which pretty much sums up her entire personality.
AAAAANNNNNYYYY ways, about 3 months ago she decided to buy a house in downtown Saint Louis, a run down POS one, and rehab it. the right one finally came along a month ago, but it was 12k, so they had to empty their non-retirment savings and checking accounts, and she used all his money to buy it (with his concent). its gonna be figured into the who takes what and all that, but its still all the money, so for about a month or so me and dad are going check to check untill he can get more money into the savings account.
Wait, rewind. She was planning to leave soon since everything seemed civil and she was fairly sure that he wasnt going to use the "abandoning the home" crap. Also, she has been sleeping in the guest bedroom for about 2 months, probably more.
So anyways tonight I notice that my parents seemed to have dissapeared. I go downstairs and notice yelling at the top of the stairs. my dad says "go away zach, we'll be done soon" in an angry way.
woo hoo, they're arguing, who saw that coming? :rolleyes:
so then about a half hour later my dad comes storming upstairs grabs his carkeys and says "Im leaving, bye" and slams the door and leaves.
then my mom comes up, acting verry hurried and worried, and she is packing all her shiznit up. she asks me to help her carry some stuff out to her car, and I do, and its alot of stuff. anyways she was planning a trip to chicago and she leaves tomorrow morning, so I figured some of it was for the trip. she then tells me we are going to my grandfathers house (dads dad) and she is gonna stay there the night (we're all very close). I asked why I needed to go and she said she had stuff to talk to me about. whatever :rolleyes:.
so we get there and we carry everything in and then we go and we sit at a table and she starts talking.
apparently one of her old highschool friends (male) has come back into her life, and it started as just friendship, but over the last 6 months it has developed into something more serious. She told my dad and he got really ****ed off, and now he thinks she has been using and manipulating him, and she is afraid he will use the "abandoning the house" crap.
whodathunkit! :rolleyes: <--- notice a trend?
so Im gonna get puking drunk tonight and have a shot of tequila for breakfast and if my dad has a problem with it he can suck a big one.
oh, and just so you know, my mom has all my car money to buy the house, and now Im only gonna get it when my dad re-finances the house in a month or so. time to sell my current car, as soon as school is out.
