The absurdity of it all... An elegy to 21st Century insomnia.
So, it's 5:02am and I have been up for two hours. I have read, played with google latitude, made cheese on toast and tried to sleep. I have taken two Kalms that might help, but I am doubting it very much. I try and keep most of my personal life out of this blog, because it's a long a complicated situation that would take hours to explain without any guarantee that you would understand any of it. I say that because I don't fully understand most of it, so it's not suprising I try and avoid explaining the finer details. Laura is expecting to move out next weekend, the 21st to be exact. I am suprised that she is moving so quickly and in many respects, I am suprised that she has found the money to do so.
It has left me in a very tight position. Without a fridge/freezer, without a matress or a bed, without a television (this is the source of most contention) and now without a car. I don't want the car, I do want the television and given she is having a vast amout of expensive furniture for pretty much nothing, I have not got a sniff of gratitude throughout the whole thing. I really felt that this was going to be an amicable process but I am starting to feel that the whole thing could quickly escalate in to materialistic chaos. But then who said divorce was easy.Tomorrow I am off to see the mortgage company with the intention of taking her off the mortgage. If not, then I will have to look at the current situation as a temporary stopgap, rather then any permanence.
