The Sleepless Knight
As of now, all is quiet on the western front – as far as legal proceedings are concerned. I would be shocked if the STBX didn’t get served this week. I just want it done. I’m not anxious or scared about it; I just want to move forward. Last week,…

Going to DEFCON 2….
For some stupid reason, I never bothered to check my e-mail on Wednesday (probably because I was too busy getting homework done). 15 minutes ago, I opened an e-mail from my attorney – sent at about 3:15 Wednesday afternoon. My attorney got the Divorce Papers back from the county. The…

a war of attrition
I haven’t put up an entry in 10 days. The impending holiday and no classes has left me with a lot of down-time (but I got an entry or two that i’m working on). Anyway, the down-time has allowed me some time to go through a “purging phase” and a…

a funny thing happened to me on my way to la-la-land

Tales from another broken home
I get a phone call yesterday from a 843 area code number that I don’t recognize. After checking my voice mail, I realize that it’s my son. As she has talked about doing, the STBX bought our son a cell phone. Needless to say, I have some mixed feelings about…

course correction
At long last, I finally sent off my copy of the STBX’s separation agreement – with my counter-proposals of course. I’m finally glad to have that off of my chest. I still get a chuckle out of the fact that she said to me “you mean you’re retaining a lawyer?”…

don’t believe the hype
Every day, I am reminded that divorce is never as easy as anyone thinks or says it is. The STBX used to say that she would want things to be as amicable as possible if we ever split up. That of course was all pillow talk during the so-called “good…
