So, what’s worse than an ex-wife with a pretty hefty meth habit?

An ex-wife who leaves her boyfriend, gets a restraining order against him, moves home to mom and dad’s and then decides she’s still in love with her ex-husband.

I don’t normally take much joy in other people’s misery because I’m just not that way but she has me cracking up almost daily.

Today’s funny:

“I guess Jennifer moving in is a sign that you’ve moved on?”

Um… last time I checked getting a divorce was a pretty big flashing sign but if this is what it takes…. Sure, he’s moved on honey. I realize I’ll be dealing with her for the rest of my natural life so I guess I need to take the humor where it comes. I can’t wait till she gets her first daycare check with both of our names on it. She’ll flip her shit.

Speaking of which, why do people freak out over the prospect of a joint account? I’ve mentioned it to a couple of people lately that were stunned I would do that. “What if something happens? You actually trust someone that much”? Wow… talk about paranoid. I’m not giving up my savings or anything like that. I’m getting a joint account with the man I’m building a life with. I am admittedly a little old fashioned and I just think this is how things should work but I honestly don’t see a huge deal. We’re sharing a house, a mortgage, bills, bodily fluids, etc. A joint account is nothing. I’m also a little odd because I think most pre-nup agreements are stupid but that’s just me. No way in hell you could get me to sign one unless you owned a business I had nothing to do with in the first place. Luckily Todd and I agree about this.

I’m almost moved in and I’m so glad. Having lived in an apartment for the last 7 years it’s going to be very different living in a house again. Granted, this house isn’t big. We’re talking 1200 square feet on slightly less than an acre of property. The thing that makes it cool is that I’ll be back “home” in the mountains. When we turn the lights off at night it is practically pitch black. You can hear a pin drop. I can paint it, twist it, and turn it any way I like. I have 4 flowerbeds currently and more being built. Tonight is our first official night there and we’re both excited.

For argument sake… Hypothetically speaking of course… you have a totally in love couple… which is a weirder reason to get married? For tax reasons or for mortgage reasons?

This is the most outstanding thing I've seen all day.
