I need a new phone
Feb. 1st, 2005 12:10 pmNancy's decided to be a bitch to me again for some reason. There was a while at the end of the year she was being pleasent and amicability seemed a real possability. <cheap shot>I guess now that she's unemployed and has time on her hands she's decided to go back to her old favorite hobby, making my life miserable.</cheap shot>
She called this morning, unfortunantly my phone is beginning to fail and it seems to be affecting the mic now. At least she didn't hear anything I said. Nancy gets very sulky when phones don't work right, it's almost she feels like maybe the person she is calling is making fun of her or something, and she gets very audibly upset.
I went inside (just home from lunch and playing with the dogs in the yard), and pmailed her to find out what she needed. She started in giving me grief for not answering a message she sent late sunday night that was about our taxes and she had some insurance questions. When Nancy talks to me about money/finances/insurance she always gets a chip on her shoulder and just goes at it like a weasel, she's always unhappy and on edge (especially if there is even the slightest confusion about financial issues in question).
So when she was being nice to me, she asked me to keep her on my insurance until we were legally divorced. Her contract was ending and it seemed like a good thing to do but it's going to cost me 90$/mo for her, and that's big enough to matter to me. So I asked her if she'd pay for it and she said sure no problem.
Well one of the things she badgered me about this morning on chat was a "payment verification" for the insurance.
/- what do you mean "payment verification"? it's a payroll deduction.
P#133:CD) Nancy whispers, "i want some confirmation that the ammount that
you are asking from me is what you are being charged for me." to you.
This lit me up like a pinball christmas tree under a tesla coil star.
I took sharp exception to being accused of trying to cheat her. I have a big thing about doing financial transactions fairly and transparently, Nancy knows this, and to imply I am trying to cheat her just sticks a needle in my eye and wiggles it around. It is I am sure a part of why she does it. I do not remain rational or equianinimical, I get mad. I have never tried to cheat Nancy, I have never lied to her, I have never done anything to merit that kind of treatment.
