Father’s Day
So last night my ex calls and starts saying, ‘So what are you buying me for Father’s Day?!’
‘When you knock me up that’s when you’ll get something pal.’
‘Ugghh’ he says.
During the course of what was a very ordinary phone call, I learn that he has indeed knocked up his Filipino girlfriend in the Phillipines.
Needless to say, I had some very very harsh words for him.
Afterwards I cried.
No, I don’t want my ex husband.
I want a family like EVERYONE else.
Meanwhile, my own Father was wished a Happy Father’s Day on Friday night by me and my brother on a conference call.
It was as artificial as the sweetner in the diet lipton I bought by accident.
Because we all know what a FANTASTIC Father he was to the both of us.
Guess I’ll have to text my ex that I’m sorry for being so cruel on the phone and tell him to refrain from calling me for a while.
Yep, I’m one bitter bitch right now.
Serves me right that I’m working today - going to pick up a teen from the airport and sit with her until her ‘foster kids’ camp at Berkeley starts at 4:30. Never mind that her two aunts live here and are flying over with her today. NO - let the social worker take 6 hours out of her Sunday to entertain the teen.
No weighing in right now.
Can you imagine that scene?!
Oh well.
Cherish your Fathers who refrained from beating you, molesting you and telling you how worthless you were because honestly - they deserve to be honored this Father’s Day.
Now you’ll have to excuse me.
I’m going to have a cup of tea.
You poor thing.

It’s just a friggin day on a calendar. Try to celebrate how DIFFERENTLY you turned out from the bastard who fucked your mom, I guess?
and may 10000000 million needles implant themselves mysteriously on your ex.

(((Hugs))) I can relate … which is why I avoided calling my dad and was greatful that he didn’t answer when I finally called at 9 pm last night. Except that I have to schedule a visit soon, sigh.
Lol @ Sunny!
I am so sorry about the convo with your ex. What was the point of him doing that to you on FD? Or any day, for that matter.
HUGS!
You know, I always have problems choosing a Fathers’ Day card for my dad. Not because I don’t love him, and certainly he didn’t do anything too terrible when I was a kid (certainly no molesting) but he was distant with his emotions and sometimes he hit me. I go right past all those “world’s best dad” cards.
