I'm sure you've heard by now that blue is the new black, forty is the new thirty and they're lying through their teeth when they say that last thing. Also, imaginary childhood friends (you know you had one) have been replaced with online friends. They're the same in that no one ever really sees them, but you talk to them, you play with them, your other friends and family think you're just this side of a restraining jacket and you're a lot older than you were when you first had friends you never saw. Sure they're real you might say in that mocking tone you have . Well stop that. Save your mocking for later on when I tell you all about my Internet friends. No, I can't see them, or touch them, although some of them have asked me....um, well, we'll go into that later. People have become friends with other people across the world, sometimes they've become friends with people they'd never become friends with in RL. That means real life for ...
Oh man, I sorry you have to deal with this now. I didn't know your husband worked for them. Good luck to you and him. I hope they can resolve it quickly.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kim. I'm hopeful thing will work out for the best eventually.
ReplyDeleteIn the meantime I'm making a cardboard sign that reads "Will rent out kids for food" Now I just need to find the right corner to stand on.
You are a strong and resourceful woman. I so admire your strength in the face of adversity and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteAw Kindness, you're sweet. I don't know how strong or resourceful I am, but I can get annoyingly silly on occasion so perhaps that might save me.
ReplyDeleteOr not. We'll see. :)
