roller coaster day without OD (5 entries in 1 ha!)

 

 

 

8:36 AM

 

Well, OD, you’re down right now and I need to write. It’s part of my routine. You can’t mess with my routine!!!

 

You’ve been down since my lunch hour yesterday. I’m really sad. I guess you have a twitter and you said that you’re having “connectivity issues”… Too bad only 152 people are following your twitter. Lol. I wish that you were back.

I need your lovin.

Your hugs.

Your squeezy squeezes.

 

Whatever.

It’s Wednesday. This week feels terminally long.

 

It was a full moon yesterday and it was still in the sky this morning.

The crazies are out.

Homeless panhandlers yelling at people in front of Gamestop.

The zombie I saw yesterday. (Seriously, go read the entry, click on zombie… it was scary! I still have the creeps!)

About 15 unruly precocious youths on the train this morning (I’m guessing they were going to school? There was no teacher with them). They got on my nerves.

 

Yeah, it’s a mess in the world today.

 

I can’t focus.

I want my OD back.

I’ll come back later I guess.

 

9:27 AM

Yes, almost an hour later. No changed on the OD front.

Whatever.

 

So last night I found out that Baboo’s mom brought over more of his crap to the house. It really sucks having his junk smooshed into our already cramped living space. I don’t want him to have to throw away things that belong to him, but the old computer parts from 1998 have GOT TO GO. He keeps saying I’m mean, but honestly, I’m not that mean! It’s like keeping a bunch of hamburger wrappers in the house. Yes, at one point, they were good for the hamburger. But the hamburger is gone now. They are trash. Lets throw them away!

 

Ugh.

 

Someone just bought me a tamale. YES ANOTHER TAMALE!

How nice.

 

I’m going to fax my divorce docs in about 30 minutes. I’d say cross your fingers and hope I got the forms right and they don’t say “but we need this stamped by the court” or something. UGH!!!! I just want to fax them, call the place and pay and have it DONE.

Oh please let it happen, PLEASE!!!!!

 

I just read on the summons that he has 30 days to respond or the court will make a judgement.

Does that mean in 30 days (give a few weeks probably)… that I could be FREE?! That I couold be divorced? That I can have my divorce party (and believe me, I will be having on, including a marriage license / wedding photo burning bonfire!) and move on with my life? That I will then be able to REALLY PLAN my April 24th wedding?!

REALLY?!

 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt”>I shouldn’t get my hopes up.

Ugh.

 

10:16

 

So about 10 minutes ago I sent the fax. It went through! I called to see if it was received and give my card number for payment, but the woman said that it takes 10 to 15 minutes for the fax to make it to her email and that she would call me back. I’m so nervous! I have got to get this over with. I’m praying that everything is filled out properly. It has to be! It had this space for something like a clerk to sign… and like… a space for a seal, but I have no idea what that means and I’m just HOPIN AND HOPIN AND HOPIN that it’s not anything I needed to fill out. I want this done NOW. TODAY NOW!!!!!!!

 

I’M LOSING IT.

I CAN’T WRITE I CAN’T THINK.

I’m just praying that my boss doesn’t call me into this meeting before I can get this whole thing finished.

 

I know what I’ll do to distract myself. I’ll go pay my bills.

Lol.

 

10:23

Ok Monique, calm down. She’ll call. She’ll call.

She hasn’t called yet.

All my bills are paid tho!

Isn’t that precious?

I bought baboo Mafia II yesterday. Late birthday present. I also put down a preorder down payment dealy bobby for Medal of Honor. He’s geeking out over that game. He wants it bad.

 

I like Mafia II though. It’s more than just GTA mafia style, it has some cool battle/fighting components.

 

I saw Ghost Recon II. I’ve wanted to play those games. I’m scared of them though. I need to go read a review about it so I can see if it’s a game I can actually play.

 

It’s 10:25, so, 15 minutes EXACTLY since I faxed. COME ON LADAY! CALL ME!

 

10:54 AM

Ummmm… no call yet. I’m perplexed and angry. Why no cally cally stupid newspaper?!!!

 

I’m calling them back in about 20 minutes. That will be an hour since I faxed the shit.

God, why such a hassle?! Why?!!!!

 

11:18

Answering machine.

Honestly, it’s enough to make me stab my own face.

 

11:59

SHE CALLED ME BACK AT LAST!!!

Everything was fine, they’re gonna publish it on Aug 27, Sept. 3, 10, and 17. Once it’s been published on the 17th, they send something to the court. Then the court does it’s thing and sends the whatever back to the paper. Then the paper will send me the proof of publication and…

 

I’m lost…

Ha ha.

I have NO IDEA what I do after that. I might have to ask someone, but the long and short of it is, that the shit is getting published and I’m at the next step!!!

<font face="Times New Roman" size="3″> 

I’m so excited I could pee.

Well I actually DO have to pee.

And I’m treating myself to a spicy chicken bowl and nobody can stop meeeeee!!! *dance dance, we’re fallin in love to half time*

Don’t ask.

 

12:57

The new cook across the street has learned how to make a most excellent spicy chicken bowl. For a while there, they were getting “weak” and not as delicious… but today, oh my. It was perfection. Perfectly made. Thanks Mitaki!

 

My mouth burns *squee*

 

So I’m all sorts of excited about this damn announcement!

But I’m all sorts of sad about OD STILL being down.

That’s 24 hours ya’ll.

The twitter has not been updated. If you’re not following the twitter, you might want to. At least I know they had an idea what it was YESTERDAY. Lol.

 

But today?

Who knows.

I guess I’ll go work and probably work on writing.

We’ll see how it all goes.

 

1:34

Oh well. Scratch that. It’s not getting published. I got a call back and I was told that the forms weren’t filed properly. I have to go back to the court and file the summons? I had no idea I had to file the actual SUMMONS. I thought I just fucking sent that shit to that fool and I’m done with it.

I’m so overwhelmed. I have no idea what’s going on now.

NO IDEA.

 

2:05

Well, I found the form I needed, it was filed. So I called the lady back and it’s all fixed again. But now I realize that once that happens I have no idea what to do next.

I sorta want to scream and throw a fit.

 

I don’t think I’ll get my 4-24 wedding date.

Especially if I have to wait 6 months after the summons.

At best I’ll be able to file for a default divorce the first week of October.

Six months past that is April.

Oh well.

 

2:21

Maybe we’ll just have a summer wedding.

I don’t know anymore.

Blah to life.

Where the fuckety fuck is my goddamned open diary when I need it?!

 

2:42

Did I mention that I figured out where that butt ass butt smell came from? There is a trash truck that passes… and even after its gone for a while, you can still smell it’ it’s rank and foul man. Rank and foul!

And now, 3:04, OD is back up. I wrote all of that in Word today while waiting.

 

I feel like I’ve been on a roller coaster.

I wanna go home.

 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in0pt”>I got 55 minutes left.

I guess I’ll live.

I didn’t like that it was down either. I wanted to write a real entry all day. Now I have 2 toddlers and if it weren’t nap minute, I wouldn’t be here now. I was just checkin’ and saw you on the front page. The cut and curls are adorable!

August 25, 2010

Yup. Know that feeling. I wrote today’s entry in Word Pad while waiting as well. Apparently we have very similar patterns. Lol. Acknowledges entry.

What a day! =P I don’t write every single day on OD but I feel SO RIPPED OFF when I can’t read/note/write if I feel like it. BAH! I just got Jay’s signed/notarized divorce papers in the mail today. E-mailed the attorney and, apparently, all I do now is wait for a court date for a judge to finalize it and give me the damn decree. Please, please, PLEASE let it be that easy! UGH! SO SICK OF THIS!IT’S BEEN SEVEN YEARS SINCE WE SEPARATED! SLKJSLDJKFE! Whew. Sorry. Haha.

lol we were all suffering OD withdrawls. meep. Chris

August 25, 2010

Yeah, it’s 6 months from after the publication has run. You can request the default in October but it’s 6 months from the last date of publication. Summer wedding at the BEACH!!! They do not make it easy to get divorced, especially when you can’t find the dude. But seriously, you have done more than most attorneys would know how to do. You’re on the path now!

Holy crap today was a day for OD for sure. Glad you got everything filed and yay for burning mouths.

tragic for me as well. i wrote five entries in my email. i felt like i was talking to myself. because i was.

Ughh it’s frustrating how you seem to have it all worked out re: the divorce then they make you jump through more hoops.
