I'm on vacation today (and yesterday and tomorrow). Yesterday I had to go school shopping for my son and get his haircut. Today I'm spending a gorgeous day waiting for my new refrigerator to be delivered (the old one refuses to freeze anything anymore). Tomorrow I get to take the dog to the vet.
My last vacation (3 days) consisted of going to the dentist for replacement fillings on 2 of the 3 days and rain the 3rd day.
When the fuck do I get to take vacation FOR ME?????? When do I get time off?
My stupid ass ex is supposed to take his son for two weeks in the summer, but does he? NO! Of course not. He works, you know...as if I don't. So I have to cover 10 weeks of summer vacation with my 2 weeks of vacation, and count on my parents to help out with the rest (couple days here and a couple days there). Even his sister took my son for a couple days because her shit-for-brains brother couldn't be bothered.
Dumb ass ex is also supposed to alternate school vacations (Easter break, Christmas, etc. with me). Does he? No...again, he has to "work".
I should have taken him for everything he had when I had the chance instead of doing the "right" thing and just requesting measly child support, which I could really do without. I'd rather he spend time with his son (more than the 36 hours TOPS every other week he graces him with) than give me a lousy couple of bucks.
My son worships the ground he walks on...hopefully someday he'll realize what a schmuck his father is. He even told me a few weeks ago that "maybe when I get older, I'll go live with dad for a year." I just about hit the roof. I told him, "Fine. I'm not going to take you school shopping...let your father do it. Enjoy your Kmart clothes. And when Christmas rolls around, I won't buy you anything, I'll just give you a $25 gift certificate to Toys R Us and send you on your merry way. Oh yeah, and don't forget, you can't buy video games with that money, because according to your father (and his shrew of a wife), video games are just a babysitter."
There's so many things I'd love to be doing right now...but I can't.
I thought I'd feel better after letting all this out, but I don't. I'm just tired of always being the responsible one and always coming last.
