I took the day off and got a lawyer. Going to cost me 3K in escrow to hire the firm. I think it is probably a good idea. The lawyer seems pretty good. I kind of like her. Have no idea how to see if a lawyer is a ballah or a C- student though.

Really going to suck because I know we do not have the flex in the budget to just spend 3K... but I did not start this. On the good side the papers I was served with were supposed to be served by the 10th of Feb and I just got them today.... sooooo... this might mean they are invalid. heh. Gonna have to catch me again baby!

Also the lawyer said her complaint is total bullshit and will not stand up in any court of law. She said I should probably get therapy for myself so I can prove to the court I am no threat to anyone and am getting help.

She told me that my wife HAD to have hired a lawyer and put money in escrow. The court does not provide free lawyers for people making the money she does... So those were a few good things to know.

She also said mediation hardly ever works well because you still need a lawyer to check what your going to agree to because mediators can not offer advice. They must be neutral.

Stomache is aching, energy drained, back pains... I probably can avoid this whole thing by dying of a heart attack, I am sure Lightbulb can give me some tips. hmmm Bacon Double Cheezeburger is calling! Peace.

I am so pissed. I was not seriously running from the summons but expected she was going to stop it like she said.. well, got served today which pissed me off. So I am like "I need a lawyer" and she is like "no, we can work this out"... and then I start reading the complaint and it has wording like "Husband's threatened actions jeopardize the health, safety, and well being of the parties two children".. all because I wanted a checking account of my own... Like an adult or something? I even backed off of that with her and she still files those words with the court? I am BEYOND pissed off.

Yesterday, Sorta Better..

Breakfast
Cheerios

Lunch
Florentino
baby spinach, roasted red peppers, crumbled gorgonzola, caramelized onions, crispy bacon drizzled with balsamic vinaigrette
Bottle of Coke

Snack
4-5 wheat chips with some flavoring

Dinner
Ginger Beef Stirfry
2 Pretzels
Half Box of Thin Mints

I can not decide if the Florentino is healthy or not. Seems like a toss up. The bacon is bad, Balsamic Vinaigrette must be good as far as dressing goes... Cheese is a little fatty I guess... so slightly fat, some carbs, but mostly good? prolly. New dinner eating starting next week.

I feel like I am slowing down in my efforts to effect changes. I guess it makes sense since so much is going on. I need to focus down again. Goal for the last three days has been to setup a gmail account.. still have not done it.. I am going to switch my email so I can go from Comcast to Verizon and save like 250 bucks a month. Having your main email with a cable company is lame anyways, locks you in too much. I looked up my name on gmail and it is taken! Boo. Peace.

Welcome New Reader

Figured I would just put this out here since I do not think I have talked about it much. This was from a new users question about what the situation is. Currently we are married, and live together. I live downstairs in our split-level in a downstairs entertainment room. I sleep on the giant sized couch down there. It is more like a sofa bed. I could sleep in the back room in an actual bed but it is next to the boiler and I think it smells like oil or smoke. Plus I usually fall asleep watching TV which I should probably stop.

We have two kids and live in the top 5% of richest people town. We do not fit in that demographic exactly but we did what your supposed to do and bought the cheapest available house that was in good shape in the most expensive town you can afford. It is pretty in town as it is very wooded and building permits now only allow 2 acres per house, it was 1 acre for a while. So houses spaced out. No major stores in town. No lights at night. Small town. Low Taxes. All the richest people in the state like it because it is easy to commute to Boston and yet it feels like your in east buttfuck PA where Wolfie lives. :).

We have an agreement already to see other people. I have seen a few people for short times and some sex and she has dated another married guy for a while but no way he is getting roped in. It is too bad since it would solve a lot of issues.

My major hangup is that she can not afford the town without my salary as she makes like 1/4 what I do and I can not afford two decent places on my salary alone. So once we split the kids will most probably have to move. I am dead set against this because I had to move when I was in 6th grade and I am still scarred from it. I would so hate to do that especially to my son who is fairly popular but has issues with ADHD that cause him to be hyper. I think he might have trouble making new friends especially at this age where it is naturally hard to move into a new area. All of this could be me projecting my situation onto this situation and be invalid but I am not sure.

One option I never wanted to consider before was just taking full custody of the kids. It may not be possible because of the laws and the court bias but I could handle all the house bills without her salary.. and she could probably not even pay child support if she did not want to.. and obviously I would give her full visitation rights... She obviously would never go for this but I am considering it. I think it would get nasty though.

So... sorta complex situation going on... Lately she is just like fuck the kids, lets get the divorce filed.. Actually I do not think she is like that. She wants to get the paperwork in.. then she can apply for some low income housing that was forced into town. It would be about half the mortgage we pay now so it could work out.... Seems like stealing from poor people to me though.

That is the situation as it stands. Welcome to my new readers. Peace.

Cursed Girl Scouts!

How can I resist their cookies? heh.

I am going to list my eating habits at the end of posts so people who are not interested can skip them. The plan for this week is finish out the week, eat the girl scout cookies and finish off the frozen food.

Over the weekend I will buy 1 pound of chicken, 2 bags of veggies, some quantity of turkey, and make sure we have wheat pasta.. also Salad leaves, peppers, onions, cukes, some stuff like that. I am interested in the price difference but this is not a factor.

I am going to make Pasta and Meatballs with sauce on Sunday, and Chicken with peppers and veggies. I assume this is enough for at least 4 meals. I will freeze it all up and be set for the week for dinner. Also mix a salad up for one night. I will then be set for the week. Going to cut out the cokes also. Lunch will be a problem still but one thing at a time. Breakfast I will alternate between Cheerios and wheat English muffins with jelly or peanutbutter or whatever was suggested. Try that out for a little.

I also want to get back into the pushups. I was doing 100/3x a week for a while and besides the side effect of loving to feel myself up it was working out pretty good. No loss of tummy fat but the chest was getting smokin'.

On the wife front, have not been served yet. She want's me to sign some papers instead of being served. I told her I would talk to her about it tonight. She also wants to go talk to some priest/lawyer guy she knows. Great he can rape you both ways. I told her I think I need to take a few grand out of the bank and hire a lawyer. She did not like this idea. So we are at a stalemate right now. Peace.

The Fat Lightning Diet

I am going to try and eat better. I hope this will give me more energy and make me feel better as I lose a little weight. I am at 193, 5"8 right now. I have scarecrow arms and the big heart attack tummy. Women love to rub it though. Go lower ladies! Go lower!!!

I find it hard to fix my eating habits a little. I will describe what I do and you can all make nasty comments. Should be fun. One thing that can help a little is my waking up early. Lately I force myself up around 5AM. It cuts down on my sleep sometimes because no freakin way I am going to bed at 9PM... but it gives me more time in the morning and allows me to eat some breakfast if I want to. I have been doing this schedule for the entire year.

So yesterdays eating went something like this.

Morning
Honey Nut Cheerio's
Coke

Lunch
Coke
8pc Sushi Spicy Tuna

After Snack (I was hungry!)
Fritos
Coke

Home
Coke
Stouffer's Stuffed Green Peppers
Girl Scout Cookies
Coke

So we can take the easy stuff first. I should remove the coke from my body. I might have a diabetic attack when I do this but it will probably help. I should also keep up with the breakfast thing. I can tell it speeds up my metabolism because I get really hungry by lunch time.

I eat a lot of frozen dinners. I am usually really tired when I get home from work and it is hard to get the energy to make a full meal. I was reading Lightnings reccomendations and he said he cut out sugars and salts as well as fat and red meats. Almost everything I eat is salty.

Like I try lean Cuisine from the store and it seems good but is like 550mg salt good for you? It seems not. Lunch is a big problem too.. half the time I have no idea what is in my food. Sushi probably has salt issues with the soy sauce and rice makes you fat and tired right? gahh!

I order these soups sometime at work.. it's Pork Wanton, all kinds of veggies, in a chicken or vegetable broth, with like some hot sauce and garlic.. I think it must have a lot of salt and the pork wanton is probably not healthy.. the other white meat? no? Blah! This is why I HATE trying to adjust my diet. Eating lunch at work is hard and I am not sure how much I would like taking something to work.

Gary is doing a good diet too one of his keys that Lightbulb did not mention in his diet was cutting out processed flours. I have heard about this. So how do you fricken go about doing that? Is wheat bread good but white bread bad? Is this a screw anything honkey colored thing? I dunno.

Perhaps I need to find some guidelines to how much intake I should be having in a reasonable healthy diet and work towards that... More water (which I HATE the taste of) and less coke would be an easy good start also... Peace.

Starting out...

Well, we are working out a Budget. I got most of an idea of what expenses we have. Kids are too expensive. Anyone want to buy one? Cheap! There are areas that I think we can work on. I am also working on some money making ideas. I like that I am taking control of this. Hopefully it works out well.

Woods..

Hiding in the woods is not good when it is snowing. Just sayin'.

** p.s. Just in case it is not obvious this is a joke. I am NOT living in the woods. I am at home.

Still...

Hiding out. I called the wife and she said she did not mean to file this morning and especially did not mean to send someone to my work and embarrass me. I told her I was not sure if I believed her or if she was tricking me and waiting at home with the dude with the summons. She said she can not revoke it until Monday so I was like "well maybe I should see you on Tuesday then..".. I also gave her a hard time and told her I could be fired because our company is very sensitive about news and lawsuits. It is kind of true but I doubt anything will happen. So I am in hiding right now. Being hunted like an animal. Have not decided what I am going to do...

wow

..I may die from a heart attack in the next few moments... sorry, someone trying to serve you court papers does this... I tried to be fair...
