It is like giving him a puppy without asking me. When I say I can't care for the puppy, I'm the bad guy.
When they gave that to him, it was the first time the bf had been over here since I had talked with K-Bug about my concerns. I was trying to give him a chance to prove me wrong. Now I feel completely manipulated. I'm trying to be nice and get repaid by being blindsided.
The bf has the bolt to the rifle. It can't be fired as is. I'm not sure what I want to do at this point. I trust CJ. I like game meat so I can't really fuss about hunting. BUT I can't send my son out hunting with someone who has no respect and refuses to talk to me face to face.
I'm with Hec. There are no words for my response. But I think "domestic disturbance" would have been the LEAST of it.
I did not give my nephews a frickin' pogo stick without clearing it with my sister first.
Hec is right. You are right. They are totally completely wrong. Bf is just trying to make you be the bad guy.
A rifle for your kid's birthday? WTFF? Not a parent, but it all seem SO WRONG.
sj (and TCG), I'm sorry. This is hard beyond words. I can only wish families and related-by-blood folks could have 10% of the smartness and kindness of the not-blood-related people I surrounded myself with.
Am I a heretic for not really caring about the birth of the Royal Baby Boy? Granted, I also can't understand why everyone fusses over celebrity babies period.
Nope. Thrilled when it comes to friends' babies (watched 3 youtubes of a friend's baby yesterday, and was fascinated to every second of it). But this? Again, nope.
Steph, how are you doing?
Why no, I can't sleep. So I'm marathoning Buffy and working.
Sorry, Suzi. Sleep~ma to you.
A client just called me on a day I'm not working on, apologized for calling me when I'm not working, and asked for something to be done ASAP. Something that she could have sent an email in order for me to do on Sunday, Monday, and the week before that, not an emergency at all, and my boss could have done it if I'm away.
The only mystery is how the hell she got my private number. Must refresh around the office my policy that clients do not get my private number nor email address. I don't work full time and we don't provide 24/7 support to justify such calls.
Wtf? No, you don't give someone's kid--no matter how mature, unless the maturity means he's no longer legally a kid--a rifle. Sounds like the bf is trying to forment discord.
And thanks, y'all. I genuinely thought I was either going crazy or having psychic flashes about my approaching doom. I'm glad I could resolve it by flinging the soap off my front porch. And I did end up putting one of my favorite perfumes on a cotten ball and putting that next to the HVAC intake. Now my apartment smells like BPAL's Tintagle.
ETA, what the heck, Shir? Boundaries! Your client needs to discover them and your coworkers need to protect them better.
Hec is right. You are right. They are totally completely wrong. Bf is just trying to make you be the bad guy.
I had to copy and paste because speechless!
Did he give you a gun safe too?
