FML... I'm sick of this BS
So at Christmas, Tom gave be this big deal about how I'm always sacrificing my needs and happiness for his or Frankie's. I told him I'm a mother, it's my job. So he promised to make up for it, we could do something big for my birthday.
Well, my birthday came and went and we couldn't go anywhere. It was the first of the month and we had rent, cable, storage and day care that needed to get paid. Which I sacrificed my birthday money ($200) to pay BTW. So I got dinner at the local BBQ restaurant (buy one get one 50% off coupon), and a couple of DVD's (used). Tom promised that MLK weekend, we could go out of town.
So Wicked is playing in LA at the Pantages until January 29th. When I saw the cheapest tickets for the only shows left were starting at $125, I crossed that idea of my list and again got a lecture on "sacrifices". So I decided we could go down to Ontario for the weekend. Stay at a cheap hotel for 2 nights that allowed pets so we could take Maverick, use the gift cards Frankie and Tom got for Christmas, eat at Dave & Busters, take Frankie to see Beauty & the Beast (which we could have also down at the El Capitan), do some Geocaching, and save money shopping for groceries going to Sam's Club.
Tom's decided he just wants to do one night now to save money. Apparently he didn't pay what he needed to on storage and cable (which explains why the cable was shut off yesterday). He told me to come up with a schedule where we do everything I wanted into just staying the 1 night. So I told him to fuck it, I'd rather just not go. Let's get caught up on all the bills.
He gives me this BS shit about how he can't do anything to make me happy no matter how hard he tries. And if I was gonna get an attitude, he was gonna stop trying.
Ok this is a guy who when his birthday comes around June 30th, he gets whatever the hell he wants even if it means rent, cable, storage, daycare, etc doesn't get paid. Our car still hasn't been registered and it was due the week before his birthday! And I know this year, his mom is planning on surprising him with tickets to Comic Con and a hotel room! WTF, seriously?
I've proposed going back to work several times so we'd have more money, but he says I don't need to, that "we're fine, financially!"
Bullshit!
Ok ranting over, just had to do it so I'd feel better since whenever I talk to Tom about it, he makes me feel like shit
