Mutti Chronicles

Read it. Don’t read it. Makes no difference. Tomorrow the past 34 years will be decided. It won’t be final but it will be written down on paper in preparation for the final decree. The way I see it she is to blame for everything. Not that he is without blame. And neither m I. I saw it coming and didn’t do anything to stop it. But then neither did he. Maybe her husband wasn’t good enough for her. Maybe he didn’t have a prestigious enough job. Maybe he wasn’t interested enough in her dancing, singing, blah, blah, blah. She’s probably used to being the cute little sister who is the center of attention all the time. Oh isn’t she cute. And perky. But I think she convinced him that the more he stayed away from me the less he would have to care about me. And the more she stayed away from her husband the less she would have to care about him. So the two of them imagined a life where they would just run and dance and sing all the time and wouldn’t they be so happy if they were together. And he can just wipe out any memories of his own children and start over again with hers. Oh, won’t they have such a wonderful life together. If only they could somehow get rid of their spouses. So each came up with a bunch of excuses, make that lies, so they could get out of their marriages. I know his were lies I’m not sure about her stories to her husband. I know his excuses to me were a load of crap. He hasn’t loved me for 10 years. He only made love to me because he’s a guy and guys are pigs. That is the most insensitive thing anyone has ever said to anyone. And oh yes, I let myself go too much. She fits into his new image better. Young, athletic and fit. Well I got news for him. He’s gonna get old, no make that he is old, and no matter what he does he can’t stop it.

Hers is final now so only one more step and they can live happily ever after. Oh wait he told me the same thing.

So congratulations to him. He has managed to cause two divorces. I hope it’s a good feeling. Maybe there is someone out there who really will love me forever and who actually believes in til death do us part and for better or worse.

Oh I’ll get money for the house. But not really enough to do anything with. So he gets the house, she gets her house, and she’ll also get my house. And what do I get? A dog, a car, and I start over again. With nothing. The only comforting fact here is he’ll have to pay back a loan for a house that was paid for already.
