For some reason that makes me feel all kinds of better.
It's a damned hard thing to do alone AND feel like you're doing right.
There's no soundboard.

ALSO,
Insomnia is fucking awful. I can already tell tonight is not going to happen until about four am.

Heh! If you want single parenting support, I think you can find a bunch of it here! Or if you just want to vent. I get it!

Ha!
I could vent all day long.
I try to distill it. Some days that works. Anything to avoid the void of complaining.

Thank you for getting it.

My ex.

Me: "Little Orange has been complaining of severe stomachaches off and on since Friday, especially at night. I'm worried about them. Can you make an appointment with her doctor? My car is still broken."

Him: "Yeah, I will."

Me: "Thank you!"

Him: "Is there time to make an appointment now? The weekend could be long if this keeps up."

Me: (???) "Possibly... can you call them?"

Him: "Got an appointment set up for 5pm today at Portland Family Practice."

Me: "Great, thank you! I'll get her ready."

Him: "Thank you"

5:00 rolls around.

Me: "Is everything OK? Traffic problems?"

Him: "Me?"

Me: "Like I said, my car is still broken... that's why I asked you to make an appointment... otherwise, I would have just made the appointment and taken her..."

Him: "I'm sorry. I made a mistake. I'm in Sacramento."

FFFFFUUUUUUUU

 :? Is he just retarded?

I think he has a cognitive processing disorder. He's not stupid. But yes, he may be retarded, in that for some reason information going in doesn't get processed or interpreted very well. He's actually quite intelligent, but not very present or connected with day to day life or other people. If he wasn't quite bright and able to make a lot of money programming, he would be in real trouble because I'm not too sure he's capable of navigating the world without other people kind of taking care of him. His money enables that to happen.

There are some signs that Little Orange has similar sorts of processing issues, but at seven she is already more lucid and connected with the external world than I think he is, and she is getting better all the time, which is promising.

Look, asshole:  Your 'incomprehensible' act, your word-salad, your pinealism...It BORES ME.  I've been incomprehensible for so long, I TEACH IT TO MBA CANDIDATES.  So if you simply MUST talk about your pineal gland or happy children dancing in the wildflowers, go talk to Roger, because he digs that kind of shit

More like teaching people to stock their pantry, make grocery lists, and plan meals.  But yeah.

I don't know... I'm pretty worried. She basically didn't eat today, and when she ate a bit of the waffle I made her she ended up throwing it up. She's sleeping now. No fever, just bad bad stomach cramps that come and go.

Wasn't it at 99? I wasn't  trying to end its life prematurely...   :cry:

I was in my studio for a bit and made roughly $80 worth of beads, but I'm damn horny and distracted and Mr. Language is working until 5. :(

I'm debating whether to go to the store now for meatloaf fixins, or wait until he gets here so we can go together.

:banana:

I'll pay up whenever you want me to Nigel!  :)  I think my friend has figured out I'm making her and I the friendship bracelets we talked about last time I visited her, but I may have thrown her off the scent...I'm not sure.  Either way she's shitting herself excited. 
It's all fun and games, till someone gets herpes.

Maybe he's just processing it differently.  I know people who take everything literally.

You DID say "make an appointment", and that's what he did.  The fact that you mentioned your car was broken down was probably discarded as extraneous information, because you didn't append an instruction to it.

This is true. Perhaps he simply lacks the ability to read inference.

In which case,
