Could be the station. Devoid of all emotion is a good way to describe it.

Normally I can't wait until 5 o'clock. Tonight is an exception.

It might be funny though. Sitting at the DMV at 5pm. with an impatient, dramatic mlcer and not having to deal with it, just observe.....yeah it's gonna be funny.

Its such a great opportunity to show the people around you how grumpy you are! Since it sounds like its going to suck anyway.

It won't suck. It will be interesting. One more check mark on the list.

I think it went pretty well.

The place is located inside of a mall. I arrived a little early and parked at the opposite end. After about 15 minutes I received a call from her asking where I was. She and the kids were waiting in the food court right outside the office.

I said, I'm sitting inside waiting for you. "Oh. I didn't see your car out there." (I know, did you think I was going to let you park your new car next to mine so I could ooh and ahh over it when we left?? Sorry I've learned my lesson and thought ahead this time. \:\) )

Anyway, her and the kids came through the door and I heard a simultaneous "Daddy!!" The each ran over and gave me a hug. A couple of people smiled and commented. This seemed to embarrass her.

When our number was called I handed the woman my ID then continued to play with the kids. Nothing over the top just hugging them and making them laugh. Again this seemed to bother Miss G, even to the point that she turned and gave us a look when my son was laughing right as the lady helping us was trying to explain something to her.

I was upbeat but very distant toward her. I focused on the kids and that was it. I said absolutely nothing about her new car.

When it came time to leave she asked again "where are you parked?" I pointed and simply said waaaay down that way. I hugged and kissed the kids said my goodbye's and was on my way.

She looked a little rough and I could tell that she was bothered by me not really paying much attention to her. I was distant not to get a reaction or to be a jerk. I was just being real.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I'll always be this way. She's got some work to do if she ever want's anything more than she got from me last night.

I think you handled that really well. She was mad because she wanted you to see her new "toy". Also, the kids were your center of attention and not her. I guess she thought you would be all sad and everything. Props to Trapt for doing so well. \:\)

Bravo!! Sounds like all went well. At least you got to see the kids for a little while. \:\)

Okay,

Maybe it just me, I dunno. My son turned two in Feb. Last night when I met them at the Sec. State's office, he was chomping on a wad of gum.

I asked Ms.G What is he chewing on? "Gum," "you mean he never asks you for gum?" I said uh...no. He's two, I wouldn't give him any if he did. She then says "well all he does is swallows it anyway."

Might just be me, but I think it's stupid to give a two year old bubble gum so he can swallow it, just because he asks her for some all the time.
