Jack calls me up on the day he is supposed to get our daughter. He starts the conversation out, “Before I drive all the way out there…” This automatically raises a red flag for me. Either I am going to like his plan or he is not going to get our daughter. Besides, who in the hell starts off a convo like that? Especially when it is dealing with your child? If I only got my child every other weekend, you better believe I would do whatever it takes to get her. But no, not Jack. Jack is too selfish.
Jack- I have to work tomorrow so if you want our daughter back in the morning you have to come pick her up from my house or you can wait until I get off.
First off, don’t EVER give me bullshit choices like that when the courts paper say she is to be in my possession by 9am. Doesn’t say I have to pick her up or wait for his dumbass. When you give me choices without asking, you better believe I am going to tell you to fuck off.
Now, you may think that I am going overboard right now. Let me assure you that I am not. I have dropped and picked up my daughter from their house for three weekends in a row. THREE. Never once did he offer to come to my house to drop her off or pick her up.
Me- Why are those my only options?
Jack- Witless can’t drive because of her hand. Oh. Well that sucks for you because now you pissed me off and I am not driving all the way to your house to get her because she can’t drive. I am pretty sure she drives when it benefits you. Fuck that shit.
Me- Are you going to come out here to pick her up then?
Jack- No, I am going to meet you at the gym because it is our meeting place. Whoa… timeout buckaroo. You want me to go pick her up from you but you aren’t willing to drive out to me to pick her up? And FYI, the meeting place is the gym because I am always there anyways when you drop her off or pick her up. Court papers say you pick her up and drop her off to me. I don’t have to meet Jackass anywhere per the glorious court reports.
Me- So let me get this straight. You want me to drive all the way out to your place to get my daughter tomorrow but you won’t come to my house to get her today?
Jack- Well you can get her or wait until I get off.
Me- Ummmm yeah. I am going to have to say Negative to your thought out plan and she is to be at the gym by 9am.
Jack- I won’t be able to get her to you by that time.
Me- Well, it’s either that or you can pick her up from me. I am tired of always driving out to you when I have plans. It’s bullshit.
Jack- I already gave you the two options.
Me- Well your options are bullshit and now you are just wasting my time.
I hung up on him. I don’t have time to argue with an idiot. All of a sudden he is blowing up my phone saying that he is at the gym and has been waiting for 45 minutes. Weird. Our phone conversation only lasted ten minutes. Instead of answering his phone calls, we went straight to texting.
Jack- I am here. What’s your eta?
Me- Never. I am not going to meet you. I don’t have the gas money this weekend to drive all over town to help you out.
Jack- Not coming?
Me- That would be correct. Unless you want to come out here and pick her up, I am not meeting you. You want me to pick her up from Witless, than you pick her up from me. Fair trade.
Jack- You get child support gas is not an excuse also I said I can bring her here after I get off
Jack- I don’t have gas money and yet I’m still here what’s your eta?
Me- Court papers say nine. So if you can't have to me by nine, quit wasting my time.
Jack- And I am at the meeting place.
Jack- That’s the other option you are more than welcome to pick her up.
Jack- Your not forfilling your obligation so what’s your eta? Hahahah please note that he said forfilling.
Me- No. I don't have to pick her up. You are to be at the meeting place at nine if I'm going to the meeting place.
Me- You're wasting my time and you began the phone convo with "before I drive all the way out there".
Jack- Well i am here and have been here for almost forty five mins Oh boooo hoooo.
Me- Are you going to be at the gym with our daughter at 9am?
Jack- No there is no way to do that
Jack- Unless you pick her up and take her there. Is this his way of being cute and funny. Because I do not find this cute nor funny.
Me- I'm not picking her up from your house and I'm not waiting until you get off work. And child support isn't for my taxi services.
Me- So unless you are going to have her at the gym by 9am quit wasting my time.
That was the end of the conversation. He never tried to pick her up from me or even try to work something out in order to see his daughter. Not my problem though. More time to spend with my precious angel.
