Okay, here's the deal. In case you guys haven't noticed I've mostly been operating in "bunkey" mode myself since the separation. Therefore, I am angry at myself for a variety of reasons about my current financial predicament. However, I think it may be the case that I'm finally "strong bunny" or something like that enough that my adult animals are waking up and they're like "WTF has been going on here?" 'cause it's like the house when the Cat in The Hat came to visit and before he cleaned up. Today I actually found myself wanting to Pine-Sol my floors and deal with IRS paperwork more than I wanted to e-mail my new internet swains. I was like "Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm sure it would be great to date somebody as funtastic as me. Do you have a snowblower?"

Anyways, I've been procrastinating on filing to reverse the no-garnish order for so long that I forgot that I actually do have a good reason not to do it. My 2bx could sue me for some of the assets of my business and even though I value my inventory at cost it could definitely end up being way more than child support owed especially if I have to deal with paying a lawyer other than my sister.


So, I am kind of angry with myself and frustrated but I think maybe I should cut myself some slack because my D16 is hanging out with her friends in a heated room and they're all eating Dollar Menu double cheeseburgers that were paid for with gentile impoverished book dealer earnings so even though I've been rather "bunky", I'm still the grown-up by default and at least I know how to be a grown-up even if I took a temporary semi-leave-of-absence.
