[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 189189, member: 179"] husband made me endure an Alice Cooper concert last night. We had backstage passes, so it was pretty cool to watch what goes on behind the scenes, but I hate the music. [B]SOOO loud. [/B]:bloodshot:My ears are still ringing. I guess I'm getting old. Met all kinds of cousins I never knew existed. We'd be walking around and husband would say, "Hey Jody! Haven't seen you in 20 years." "Hey Walker! Haven't seen you forever!" "Hey Sam! Where you been all these years?" It got kind of creepy. It's like everyone is inter-related. Hmmm... Then, in the middle of it all, I get a call from easy child/difficult child 2's biomom who hasn't returned a call to me for nearly a year. Evidently easy child boy calls on a friend's cell and whines to her that I cut off his cell. Yeah I did and here's why. I tell her the story. Do you know he did 4500 text messages in the last month? He didn't start college on Monday? His excuse is he has to work for the flipping car that YOU cosigned for. That's a great trade off. She wants to know if she can pay the $40/month to have it reinstated. NO. He can pay it or get his own plan. In the 14 years I've raised this boy she has never paid one cent to his upbringing. I've never asked, just always assumed he was my son and gladly took on the responsibility. Now she wants to pay his flipping cell????? Nada. He's making adult choices...now he can deal with the consequences of those choices. Can you tell I'm a bit ticked off?:winking: Abbey [/QUOTE]
