I am on the train this AM for an interview in NYC. There is an assistant professor opening. I have no choice but to pursue any avenue to remain solvent.
As I sit on the crowded train, I wonder about an impending custody battle that everyone seems to say that I have a snowball's chance in hell of winning.

Well, what have you got to lose? I'm asking sincerely. Maybe there's something I'm missing but your L is a good one you trust. What does SHE say? And I for one, think there is value in fighting for something that's right, even if you lose. Winning matters but fighting is what counts. You want the kids to know you tried and they'll know. If you resign yourself, you quit. Don't quit. If your L tells you it's time to step aside gracefully, that's different. From what she is doing and what you say about your w, you hvae to fight so that when your kids are a bit older, they can choose. They won't know to choose you if they don't know you fought for them. Just my .02. I could be wrong but that's what my gut tells me. I wish NY would wake up too. God...such idiots...
Yes, well as someone smarter than me once said, "If the law says that, then sir, the law is an ass." Hey, anyone else feeling like getting involved politically? When you get your energy back, we'll chat about that.
And good luck on the job interview. You'd be a very good professor and if it's more stable income...then good. Please tell me you won't have to pay stbxw more...(sigh) Oh, though I so hate to carp -- WHEN IS THIS OVER????
