Nothing much going on. WW has only come to see DS once this week. Maybe she'll stop by over the weekend if she doesn't have any thing better to do.

There is a massively massive festival going on in Lafayette right now to celibrate French culture around the world. It's the largest of it's kind and pretty amazing. Draws hundreds of thousands of people from around the world.

It's very bad a$$.

check it out

Festival International

I'm probably gonna go with DS tomorrow.

DS is fascinated with music instruments, so he should be fascinated with all the different kinds of music and instruments.

Oh, I forgot. I got a call this morning from SIL. My niece wanted to talk to Uncle BC. She's 4 or 5 now. Loves her Uncle BC. She told me about going eat supper last night. Apparently the manager or the cook came to the table and she thought it was me. She told me she loves me. It felt great. I'm very close to WW's family and I refuse to remove myself from them. Especially the nieces and nephews that look up to me.

Everybody have a good weekend!

That's so great, BC. Keep those lines open. My WH family wrote me off. Who knows the stories they are getting and believing.

Children tend to see the real deal. Your niece wanting to call you and say I love says what a great guy you are.

Weekend update.

It's been good and bad.

Fri- no WW. Went up the street to visit with neighbors. Ended up playing cards and DS fell alseap on their sofa so I got to stay out past 10. WOOHOO!!

Sat- DS played in neighbors pool all day. I got to step away and go to the gym. WW called about 1. Said she had been afraid to come by this week b/c she thought I got her response to the petition and thought I would be mad at her, blah,blah,blah. Needless to say I confirmed she went to a concert Fri night. Well she acted like she was on her way at 1. She showed up at 8:30 complaining of sudden stomach problems, kind of like the ones she gets everytime DS has a dirty diaper, needs a bath, etc. So she basically showed up just in time to put him to bed, fell asleep herself and crashed on the sofa. Got up in the morning, spent about an hour with DS and left. Said she'd be back a little later and still hasn't showed. I checked her myspace page and at 2 she said she had to go so she could head to my house to do laundry and visit with DS. It's 4:50 No WW.

DS is all over her my space page now and she claims to be a proud parent. She proves it so well.

Sun- Went to Church this morning and I fell in love with one of the Eucharistic Ministers. No Ring. Should I avoid her like the plague right now? I know the answer. Took DS to McD's to play. Cleaning house. about to cut the grass. DS is waking up from his nap.

I talk to yall later

No Festival, and I'm very upset about that, mostly at myself. Sat she was SUPPOSED to be comin to see DS so I stayed home. No Show. Sun she was SUPPOSED to be comin to see DS so I stayed home again. No Show.

I'm not giving her that control anymore. I should have told her we'd be at the Festival if she wanted to join us instead of sittin at home wasting an entire weekend.

Next weekend me and DS ARE going to a party Sat night. It's a long drive, so we'll be spending the night. If WW CHOOSES to go out Fri night knowing we won't be around Sat then that is her problem. I'm not gonna sit at home waitin for her anymore. All I have to OFFER her is 10 hours a week. So that's what I'm gonna start doin. I'm trying to be available as much as possible, but as usual she is taking full advantage of my generosity.

I could go on into a full rant, but what's the point. I've gotta get better a detaching from her. I feel like I am, but everytime she pulls a stunt and lets DS down I get upset. I want her to recover so bad for DS, but right now it's just not happening. She's so caught up in herself she's heading right back to rock bottom and that scares me.

I know, nothing I can do about it. I'll just have to better control what I can, visitation.

Oh, I didn't mention that she never showed up AT ALL yesterday. Not even at the last second like she usually does.

Don't worry. she'll have her excuses when she does show up. She's starting to remind me of Epstein from Welcome Back Kotter.

Can't help BC.. but can lend moral support!

Mine is wacked too... Good I hope she pulls out before the D but I really have my doubts. I think if she ever pulls out of it I will be long gone.

You're right Jim. A couple of STUDS like us won't be on the market for long. HIGH FIVE!! LOL

Back to reality:

WW showed up last night with left overs she wanted me to have. (feeling guilty maybe) I tested them on the neighbors kids, no illnesses yet. I'll eat it Thu just to be safe.LOL

Paid extra special attention to DS. (feeling guilty maybe) Seemed to be nicer and more open than usual (feeling guilty maybe)

I don't really care, it makes life more pleasant when I'm around her.

I have guys night out tonight. I got the neighbors lined up to watch DS. Chicken wings, beer, maybe a cigar. That's almost as good as haven a woman.

Maybe better, I've never had a chicken wing call me an A-hole.

I hope that you enjoy guy's night out and that IS NOT something that you give up in the future...a little me time is always a good thing...

So since you two are the "STUDS", where's the line to sign up...who's taking the applications...credit checks and background checks...

Oh, wait...back to reality! i'm not available presently...Darn D...I knew I should have filed last year! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

BC, I bet after 10 beers you can find a chicken wing that talks.
