MARCH 5 2010 2030 - JACKSONVILLE FL - How do I describe my feelings today? Melancholy? Is that the word? Or, is it something more technical such as "Hum Drum"? I don't know, but whatever it is, I think I've got it bad.
So, my past 72 hours we a little something like this. I go down the child support on Wednesday March 3rd, and quickly discovered it was a major waste of my time. If I were to open a case, it would have taken as much as 180 days before I would have felt any effect, which is funny considering I was going there to tell them to take money from me. Weird world indeed. I discovered that the case she opened with child support is about to be closed, but it makes not difference, since her gold digging lawyer is trying to use the divorce to break me financially. Oh well, God will keep me so I will not have to do without, regardless of how those aligned against me try to break me. Let them bring their tanks, their guns and Atomic Bombs, I'll just fight with God, for he is all of the defense I need.
Yesterday, I go down to the courthouse, after a stop at the public library to retype and print out my answer to her petition. An answer, that I would soon discover was actually a counter petition which would have cost me $300 to file. Now, I should have just gone ahead and filed the counter petition, but I said to myself that I am just not going to waste the effort. Give her what she wants so I can go about the task of reconstructing my life. Will they try to destroy me financially? Yes, of course, and I will simply suck it up and take it. Chock it up to a very valuable experience. Besides, God has other plans for me, so I have to remove any and all distractions so that I can focus on what it is that God wants me to do.
I did go to the doctor yesterday. Just as I expected, and the MRI confirmed, I will need surgery. So, we set a date, which just so happened to be St. Patrick's Day, March 17th. I guess that means no green beer for me. What a real bummer. But you know, there is something else about that day. I know, I believe it was the day that my mother and father were married in 1963. Yes, my older brother was conceived before my parents married, like BFD for real. So, maybe it is providence that I am having my surgery on the same day that my parents were married. I am not too sure of what, if any significance that actually holds, but heck I felt it was worth noting.
Oh, I almost forgot, I got a new phone. I went to Boost Mobile with the intent on buying a Blackberry Curve, but when the salesman told me they were out and were not expected to have any for a couple of weeks, I figured I was wasting my time with Boost Mobile. The salesman told me I should try Best Buy, but I figured why bother, so I went to Metro. Now, where Metro did not have the Blackberry Curve, they did have this phone called Code by Samsung. Honestly, this phone will do what I need, which is mobile email, and the internet. It is also kind of fresh looking, and it uses Windows Mobile, so it is like a complete Win/Win. I am happy with it. Don't get me wrong, I mean I paid a good little amount for it; however, for unlimited talk, text and web all for $55 including insurance on the phone and no long term contract, it sure beats the heck out of that cheesy little XV6900 I had on her Verizon Plan. Heck this Code even includes Navigation, which was something that I had to pay extra for on her plan. All in all, I am pleased. It is the last big ticket item I could treat myself to before the hammer drops and the money begins to vanish into thin air. Now, if I can only figure out where to put an expanded memory card, I will be all set.
