I didn't say anything. It turned out he made a stop before coming home to buy a new flatscreen tv. Ummm... why??? Especially when we don't have the money??? To put upstairs "for the boys" to replace the small tv they have to watch tv and play games on upstairs.

Here's the thing: I truly think he purchased it so they'd have a big tv of their own and not intrude on HIS Xbox in the home office. See, there's a big tv in there, and the boys preferred to play on it. Now, he won't be disturbed and can hibernate even more.

I am not saying anything since we have the weekend thing next weekend, but man does it make me angry! The boys are all thinking, "Yay, Dad!" when alls he is doing is further alienating himself from the family. Just aggravating.

And yes, Allen, I'm sure he really doesn't want to have to go next weekend. I'm not sure if the fear is from having to face himself, having to make changes, or having to make a decision or what. It's not like I'm looking forward to it so much, but I just know something has to be done. I honestly don't know what to expect out of the weekend. Should be interesting...
