Thor


So today it's snowing...ick. I guess I can't complain since we've had a mild winter especially compared to last year. My little mighty machine (my car) has loved the lack of snow...especially after the morning his front bumper struggled to get over the drifts. He's called Thor because he looks all mean and his back lights point down in the centre like he's pulling a mean face...however he's a bit of a sissy about the snow....wants to drift as supposed to drive (bit lazy I think).
I had to leave him in for his service a couple of weeks ago and asked them to look at his speaker because the drivers side stopped working a month after I got him. Well it works but intermittenedly...which is no good. I'm driving along thinking that the music isn't really that loud while the passenger is getting deafened... "MOMMY!!! It's too loud!!!"...until..."Louder! I like this one...'Don't loooossse touch'". Although when I took it in they kind of were sort of trying to accuse me of removing the trim on the door to fix/alter the speaker. However my car is under warranty so surely anyone with a brain would've thought why would she do that instead of bringing it into us. So I told the girl on the service desk...'no I'm too lazy to be bothered to do that thanks'...at least she laughed. Then told me they'd order me a new speaker and trim and would call me wednesday...last wednesday...I'm still waiting...*frustration*
Even with his banjaxed speaker and sissy snow behaviour I love my Thor. I just wish Mitsubishi would hurry up and call me...and not the guy who told me I should have 3 more kids and possibly hinted with him (he was a 40ish Indian guy who was shorter than me). Gave me his business card so we could 'make sales' which I promptly lost...it was a scary time in the showroom that day.

You have to kiss a few frogs...then there's a toad.


Is it really unreasonable to expect my ex to come see our son without bringing the girl he cheated on me with to meet him?? This time as daddy's girlfriend and not as a 'friend' of mummy. Then for me to think the justification of it is even more ridiculous...'she's paying for it and it'll probably be the only holiday we get this year'. Considering he doesn't give me enough for 3days worth of daycare for our son due to 'being skint' I would've thought holidays wouldn't be a necessity.
Is that really that unreasonable to think he might come on his own to see his son...especially since she had to be warned by one of her friends to not try to come between him and his son again. What happened to father son time?...that is meant to be important is it not?

I hope not all men are like this...because really with zero sensitivity or grasp on what should be acceptable from my ex I'm losing hope.
