so I told wife 1.0 we could go to disney orlando for 2 weeks this coming xmass, kids are 7 and 10 by then, the young one has never been, and I like Mary Poppins. Some of the dwarfs come in handy too.
Anyways, she goes and tells her dad, he goes and immediately books his 8ppl time share right next to disney for one of the weeks and tells her she can have the second week, or he can pay for us all to fly to ATL to visit her sister,
wife calls me with news. I am wtf woman? what's wrong with you? I want vaca time to be between you, me, son, daughter, Poppins, Dopy and Doc, not your side of the McCoys.
I say fuckit, you guys go, ill stay here, no worries it will be easier AND cheaper, ill be happier AND pay less money to get said happiness.
she gets it now, sort of, and grinds it all to halt, gets organized with details and options, all works out, except she starts looking at the prices and goes wtf? I say, woman get a pen and paper and add it all up, if you dont want to pay what I already know it costs, then the trauma is in your head, i know I deserve and so do my kids,, and so do you, as a matter of fact, but if it is too much for you, then call it all off.
she thinks, adds, ponders and says ok, we can do it, screw it.
she asks if her sis or mom can come to the timeshare, i say fuck now, why? b/c i want to be with you guys not with etc etc etc. she is uspset and doesnt understand why. i explain that her one sis from ATL has an inferiority complex and gets easily insulted with shit I say when in fact she wrongheaded (to this she agrees) and your mom? last three times I have seen her she has waited to the last minute at the airport curb to either give me a speech over some bullshit or hand me a letter for me to read on the way home, well if she cant be mature and have a normal convo, then I dont want to see her. oh so she cant come to our house to visit anymore? wife asks.
o yes she can, honey. so what's the difference? easy, if she goes to ORL, I will be paying thousands to have a shpiel from her, whereas if she comes to my house, i ait paying for shit, i get free babysitting AND if i want to get away to avoid her, i can book some seminar/convention, go t the sailboat or just work, or just get the fuck out all day AND let her take a cab to and fro.
she felt i was complicating things.
i said, no, you are, it started with a vacation between us 4 @ disney, right? that's my desire right now.
by adding more people to it, you are polluting my "dream". if you want something else, that's fine, I will respect it, just state so and pursue it, without me, I cant go that route. your mom or sis and me dont mix, let it be, u cant control it, and neither can i.
There will be other times for good times, but for bad times I have no time.
but what do i tell my family so they dont just fly down?
u worry about that later, first decide if you can respect the sort of trip I am prepared to take, the one I proposed first.
but what do i say? fuckit I dont care, let them have it, i dont need their approval. if u need them to approve of me, then lie, of not tell the the truth, she goes i married you i dont need their approval, so I go, there is your answer.
if u r still conflicted it is because on of the following:
1. u still think it would be good to have their approval of me and u dont want to ruffle feathers
2. you dont want to ruffle feathers and rather have me allow y'all to fuck up my vacation
3. you somehow think that a magical fairy will correct my crooked reasoning overnight and lead me to agree the insertion of such characters into my vacation, because you somehow think that is an ideal scenario.
i told her, u travel out with the kids to ATL one week ahead, spend that there THEN fly out to ORL to spend 2 weeks with me and the kids, ALONE. visit your sis in ATL first like I said, and have yo momma fly into ATL for that same week, all taken care of that same week...."but I want them to spend more time with their grandma/pa",
baby, 2 weeks 4 of us alone in ORL-Disney + your (with kids) one week in ATL with your McCoys, that or nothing, simple, dont complicate it, it's easy, decide tonight, and tomorrow book it all according to the options available, dont pull any stunts, because that will end up costing us more money in the end, i aint putting up with anyone's shit and i dont expect others to put up with my shit either, so everyone's shit stays within their own yards.
she went to bed conflicted
jesus christ and a bag of doritos!
women are fucking crazy, man, it's a scary place inside those brains, motherfucker!
