I may regret it in the morning, but I doubt it. The ornaments are all off and put away as are my stocking and the few non tree decorations. His stocking is still out, I'm not a complete bitch.
He has completely ruined Christmas for me. And I will not buy him gifts to be given on an actual gift day again. we will go together with a set budget some day prior to events and buy whatever the fuck he wants, because it is all about him getting exactly what he wants and having every ounce of control and while we can't function like that all day everyday we sure are going to try to squeeze every bit of the available time to be all him.
I am so sorry, msbelle.
edited out because of the cross post.
Because it should go in a separate post:
Perkins, what a gutter mind you have! There's totally some sort of plaque attached to that shaft. It's no more than an ornamental dildo, at best.
Hey, I never said the word dildo. you came up with that all on your own.
oy, msbelle. I'm really sorry. You sound understandably angry but also very hurt, which is probably the harder part.
In other news, I just had a dinner of brie en croute, jaeger schnitzel with spaetzle (the veal was better than my grandmas but not the noodles) and chocolate mousse. I feel like I ated too much food.
God, msbelle. It must just be so hard. I hope you can find some joy somewhere this week.
I can find the joy in the real meaning of the season. I can internalize that and go spend some extra time at church.
Just all the bits about family and sharing and any bit of me getting materialistically excited about "stuff" - none of that.

I had some minor drama with my mentor family. At our Christmas party, her daughter fell and hit her head. The resulting goose egg had a split and it bled. We took her home, put some ice on it and gave her some tylenol. After a few hours, S called me worried about it because the cut was bleeding again. So I drove them to the ER and sat with them for two hours until the doc numbed it, poked it and stated that it wasn't bad enough to require stitches.
It sucks almighty, but this is a skirmish in the battle in the war. It isn't the final outcome. Peace to you tonight, hon.

Okay, this is a more serious question. What is the best charity to donate to for polar bears? The jackass thing was fun to think about but way too transparent. But the polar bear thing - I really, really want to do something there, and the fact that I can do good for something that means a lot to me instead of buying some crap for someone I'm pissed at - yay. The "you fucking motherfucker" part will be totally between us!
At World Wildlife Fund, there are several animal options, including polar bear. You get a cheap stuffed animal of whichever animal you pick, plus a photo of one of them in the wild.
So, that snowball fight in DC yesterday? An off-duty cop's car got hit with snowballs, and he stopped the car, got out, and pulled his gun. [link] There's video of snowball fighters chanting, "You don't bring a gun to a snowball fight." Supposedly, Fox News referred to the snowball fight people as anti-war protesters.
