Ok, so I'm sitting here, minding my own damned business, having a spot to drink when the phone starts ringing. The only people who call this time of day is telemarketers so there's no way in hell I'm picking the phone up...right?
WRONG!
The Goddamned phone rings at least 25 times and shows no signs of stopping...I'm forced to answer it cuz it's just right fucking there and really loud and driving me up the mother fucking wall.
So, I pick it up and I'm pissed, cuz Who The Fuck rings your phone 25 or more times?! 10 tops! If they don't pick up by the 10th ring they either aren't there or don't wanna answer so you should hang the fuck up...right?! Right!
Keep in mind, that I normally answer the phone with a moderate, "Hello?" but this time I'm like , "WHAT!?" Yelling, practically, ya know?
Turns out, it's the scheduling bitch at the place that I work at and she's wanting to know if I'll work my usual house until 10am tomorrow cuz the weekend guy has call off for some reason or other. And the bitch has the gall to tell me that she wasn't even paying attention to the phone while it was ringing! She was busy feeding her fat, bitch face and just letting it ring…and ring…and RING!
Someone...Please, I beg of you!!!! WTF is wrong with people? Why do we say "common courtesy" and "common sense" when there is no fucking such a beast!? You’re more likely to come across a Naugabeast (from whence the Naugahide was once harvested. The beast is now, sadly, extinct.) than to encounter “common” courtesy or sense…*heavy sigh*…Ok…winding down now from my uberpissed state.
Rant over.

My answer to your first point...Why should I have to spend money on a contraption or a service to keep people from being dickheads when they should just not be dickheads? It's unreasonable to expect other people to fork out money so you don't wind up proving to the world what an asshole you are.zeb1094 said:

No, i'm not going to take the kids away completely.
Yes, you will be seeing them - quite frequently, if not most of the time for the time being.
No, i never was planning on taking them halfway across the country.
i'm not coldhearted enough to take them from the only family they know.
i like you guys too much to do that to you, either. It's your son i have a problem with. Now that he's lied to you so blatantly about that stuff, you can see why.
No, i don't know what to do about their schooling yet. i don't even know where i'm going to be working or living yet. It's a little hard to figure things out without those bits of knowledge.
i'm not stupid. i'm not blind. i'm not coldhearted. i'm not crazy. i'm not a meth whore, or an alcoholic, or a slut, or the hundred other things you've heard recently. i'm just somebody trying to get both myself and those i'm here to love and protect out of a bad situation and into one where we could be much happier.
There was no need to burst into tears. There was no need to try a guilt trip that wasn't going to do anything but piss me off anyway. There was no need to burst that bubble of good feelings that i FINALLY managed to build around myself.
Now, please, don't do that again.

Good try guys, just not quite good enough.
It seems that you thought because I was willing to repair the trailer I was some sort of dumb fuck.
Maybe it's the tat, maybe it's the hair, or maybe it's just because you thought I was stupid.
You thought I would sign a piece of paper giving you the right to enter my home un anounced for inspections?
You thought I would sign a piece of paper signing away the trailers Granfather Clause, there by making me have to buy a brand new trailer within the next 12 months?
You thought I would sign a pice of paper making my storage shed and it's contents community property?
You thought I would sign a pice of paper making me liable for the back lot fees of the prior owner?
You thought I would sign a pice of paper giving you the right to approve any changes I make inside my trailer?
Last but not least, you thought I would sign a pice of paper making it mandatory for me to give you a copy of my house keys when I change the locks because one of your employees wants to use the trailer as a party pad?
I was born at night, but not last night. Yes I do read everything before I sign it, and yes I do ask questions if I don't understand it. Good try, but not good enough.

... and two callbacks for job interviews, got the oil changed in my car, they realigned it for free because i look damned good in those jeans, talked to both HUD and the state housing authorities, two lawyers that are both interested in taking my case, found out i can still eat certain Chinese dishes without a trip to the hospital, was promised another car within the next couple of months, and will be seeing the bodyguard again all night Sunday... for startersAurora Black said:Still standing.

Rob's really going to have my ass... for ruining his thread.
I'm ecstatic. I made a major novel breakthrough last night and I'm still grinning and giggling like a stoned idiot.
I think I'm going to change threads to preserve the ranty feel.

Rant before bed....
Yesterday, I couldn't get the bloody thing out fast enough, the story ran out like I had diarrhea of the brain. Today... ten hours of solid material to work from... and four lines of actual story that I've managed to write.
Oh fuck you, you draconian muse!!!

Dear Lord, Cat! Good eye for details. That's an insane little piece of paper they were handing you.
Hang in there. There are ethical landlords out there, even if many of them are straight out of a Marxist's most caricatured nightmare. I wish I could send you to the dear, charming man I rented from, but I suspect you're not keen to re-locate quite that far.

It didn't sink in yesterday, sooo...
Hysterics don't work on me.
Neither do puppy dog eyes, tears, or guilt trips.
i know you use them. You use them on the RA and your husband, and on my children - which needs to stop NOW - and that they work rather well on all of them.
They don't work on me.
You're forgetting that i'm both female and a mother. Those ARE my children you've been watching, remember? They try the same tricks and it doesn't work for them, either. In fact, they're smart enough to have figured out it just pisses me off.
You're forgetting that i have those exact same weapons in my arsenal. We've had this discussion a time or two. You've admitted to using them on just about everybody over the years, playing the helpless female, the femme fatale, and have gotten away with it. i'm a little more honest than that. i'll tell you to your face how full of shit you are, then leave you to deal with it. That's the way things work in this house now.
No more lies. No more deception. No more manipulation of thoughts and feelings. It's done.
Don't come back over here just to burst into tears. i don't give a flying fuck if you think it's 'bad' and 'wrong' and that i'm 'giving up too early' and all that other shit you've been spouting off. You don't know the beginning of what's been going on. At least -i- certainly haven't told you.
If he has, he's going to have to answer to me. It's our relationship that's ending. You have no reason to go poking your fat ass into it. You don't know the dynamics behind it, or the reasoning behind my decisions, and still obviously want to believe his lies instead of what's going on in front of your own eyes. That's your malfunction.
Say what you will about it. i've got more witnesses than i know what to do with that will testify that THE ONE CONSTANT through this whole ordeal - all the YEARS of it that has led to this point - is the one thing you're most worried about. It has never, NEVER, NEVER been my intent to take these kids, my little miracles, away from the only family they've ever known. It would shatter their world. i can't hurt them that much.
Unless the drama doesn't stop. NOW.
If it doesn't, then i'll turn hardass and will ensure you'll never hear a thing from them again.
