So Chapin came over tonight and we headed out to Sprint with Pumpkinhead to get Chapin off my cell phone plan. We were sharing a 2100 minute/month plan, of which he used the majority because of his job. Last month he spent $42 texting his 14 year-old girlfriend in Guatemala (yes, I know, PUKE!). Anyway, after an hour in the Sprint store and several calls to their corporate office, all was said and done. And that is but one of the many post-divorce business things we must do together. For example, we still need to find time to get over to my lawyer’s office so Chapin can quitclaim his ownership in my vehicle. We also need to go see Nationwide and get his car insurance separated from mine. At least we made a bit of progress tonight. Now I just have to call them when my plan month ends to lower my minutes from 2,100 down to a much more reasonable 300 or so!
We took Pumpkinhead out for Chinese on the way to Sprint because we were all starving. That was fun.
There was a very talkative couple out with their kid who would NOT stop talking to us and asking us questions. The lady asked if we went out to eat a lot and I finally just said, “Look, we’re divorced. We are just out together this evening to discuss a few matters. We do not go places together.” That shut her up. I know, not very nice but I just wanted to eat and leave. Grrr.



The 14 year old? WTF? I’m SOOO glad you’re not with him anymore.
Heidi, I wonder if I can just have him sign the title over. Didn’t even think about that! I just keep thinking we have to do the quitclaim paperwork at the lawyer’s office. Since we own my car free and clear, I may just call the DMV and ask them if it is that simple. Thanks.
I always feel strange when the ex and kids and I are out in public together. I know we look like the “perfect family” and it just seems so wrong! Good for you for setting the record straight.
Definitely get the car thing taken care of as soon as you can. The longer you wait the harder it gets to cut ties. My car is still in both our names and it’s been over a year. Our divorce agreement states the car is mine, but ex still has the title and won’t sign it over to me. grrr. (should have taken care of this when the divorce was finalized, but was so eager to be done with it that the detail slipped my mind)
Ditto. Absolutely awesome response.
Nothing wrong with telling her that to shut her up. Some people are just too nosey for their own good! Yeah, I wish I could have seen her face too.
It cracked me up too. If you asked intrusive questions, you are bound to get the truth.
That last part cracked me up!! I wish I could’ve seen her face! Ha!
