Ok, so I signed a lease today, and I dropped off a big check.
I brought 'my' dog with me to meet the landlord too. She is 10 1/2 years old, and i have had her since she was 6 months old after i rescued her from the humane society after she was hit by a car. Its a brand new house, so i was afraid she would decline the dog. Instead, my dog was perfect, and just laid down on the rug in the living room (the house was being staged for sale).
I am paying to have a little fence put in at the house so she can run around during the day outside, my wife has agreed to a full 50/50 split with the girls so things are good.
When i got home though from signing it, my wife asked "how did it go?" I said - "i signed the lease, and the dog is good", she replied, "did you get the keys", I said "july 15th", she replies "WHAT, 2 WEEKS, why do you have to wait 2 weeks?" I smiled and said "What, not fast enough for you?" and walked away.
Anyways. the rest of the evening was okay. I played with the girls, and we picked carrots out of my garden. My wife made some comments about the carrots, and I was replied with some subtle sexual banter, she laughed, and it became a little ongoing joke throughout the evening.
I also figured out why our wives pick the OM, because they know they don't deserve us.
I've got a lot of plans for the summer, i'm putting my life back together. Friday i'm going to see Bob Saget and getting dinner with some friends (women - and no i'm not looking to date yet) -Then I am off to San Fran on the 5th. I think i'm going to do a lot of travel once the parenting split happens. I will have the time, i just need to expand my social circle with some unmarried friends who might want to join me.
