This thing has turned into quite the fireworks show. xW called me yesterday and was furious over an email she got from bff asking for her money now. She had quite choice words for what bff could do with her request delivered with all the energy and enthusiasm of Dr. Rick Marshall telling Matt Lauer what he could do...(1:24)

Here's an excerpt from the email:

"... i know its a lot of cash (number) but at this point i have to have the money back now.   i don't know if you can ask your parents for a loan and have (O'dog) pay some of it or pull it out of your retirement or his. ... i'm losing sleep worrying about my money situation and my parents are adamant they get paid back and (BFF's xH) wants the rest of the money to go to the irs now.  my blood pressure is through the roof and this is making me an emotional wreck.  and honestly, until i get my money back i'm going to resent every single penny of discretionary income you spend (like going to (city) or buying (daughter) clothes) when i'm living by the skin of my teeth right now and borrowing from my parents.  I'm not going to be able to move past all of this if i feel like that all the time and have my parents and (BFF's xH) hassling me every day about paying them back and getting the money from you.  i'm sorry but that is the truth..."


O'dog pull $ out of his retirement?!? Why don't you...

"i'm going to resent every single penny of discretionary income you spend (like going to (city) or buying (daughter) clothes)." Or spending money on food and water.



Seriously, BFF went too far with this incoherent babble. xW admitted she got herself into this. She's not sure yet what she's going to do (evict; have friends come over and move her stuff out while bff is gone for the weekend; or nothing). She didn't seem to be looking for a rescue and I offered nothing more than a listening ear. I'm just glad I'm not in the middle of it. I've got my house, car, dog, mc, and I'll just keep puttin' along. As Dorie says, "Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming..."
