Warning - Drama Inc!!!
Don't worry, it won't spray into /g... unless you guys let my soon-to-be-ex in, and in that case, I take no responsibility. For the drama OR the bloodstains.
See, tomorrow is when I go to see a lawyer about filing for divorce and start into the task of extracting my stuff from the house I bought (not we; she was $30k in the hole at that point, and contributed less than nothing). And then, after she comes home from work, I get to deal with the inevitable meltdown and screaming. The reasons for this action are many and varied; suffice to say I do not do this lightly, that this is a long time coming, and that this will suck more mightily than a black hole on a street corner.
So, I'm not signed up for June 3rd's ICC 10, and I may not be able to get online for a day or two, but I will return and I will NOT let this affect my generally-silly-and-happy behavior any more than I absolutely have to. I promise even not to get maudlin on my birthday (even though I don't think anyone got me a Blizzcon ticket *pout*).
Upside: I might be able to start talking in vent after this... :D

Sorry To Hear This Sir
but I have a feeling you knew this was coming.
Heres to hoping everything will go relatively quick and painless :)
Oh, plz don't be like these people!! :P
Uhhhh...
First lemme address this videos....WTF!?!? I can't pick my favorite...the teeth slip up...I DOES...Gary Coleman on Divorce Court...WTF!?!?!?
Anyway, sorry to here this War, hopefully everything will get resolved rather quickly and easily. Just keep your cool in this, don't be the 'crazy' one...well more crazy than you are already ;P
Could be worse.
At least she's not insane. Good luck.
*offers cookies*
We'll be here when you are able to get online again--and *hugs*. Having watched several very close friends go through divorce, yeah it can get ugly, but the end result is worth it I think.
Yeah, I've done the divorce
Yeah, I've done the divorce thing myself and it can be pretty overwhelming with everything you have to remember. We can be the much needed break you need, but make sure you dot your I's and cross your T's with it. We'll still be here, waiting for that crazy ass, 2 handing, fury spec'd, aggro pulling nutjob warrior. ;)
Divorce.
Speaking as someone who didn't learn his goddamn lesson the first time and has TWO ex-wives, you'll make it, I promise. :)
(Third time's a charm. I feel lucky.)
*hugs*
I'm sorry to hear that War. Ending a relationship, let alone a marriage, is never easy. I've definitely "been there, done that". Anyway, keep your chin up, do what you have to do, and we'll see you back soon enough. :)
divorce sucks
I've been there, too man. It drains on you in ways you can't even imagine yet. Even two perfectly rational and sane people who decide to jointly end a relationship that isn't working, even THEY go through hell.
That said, and without casting judgment on the person I married, getting divorced was the best thing I ever did, other than having my son. It has made me take stock and rethink every aspect of life: who i am, what i believe in, who my friends are, what kind of life i want to lead, etc.
The only things I'll offer are this: 1. Don't hold things in. Find a few trusted people (therapist, pastor, rabbi, good friend not related to her, etc) and talk. Find people who have been through divorce before (there are many in this guild, let alone in your "real" life) and pick one or a few to be sort of like your "sponsor" -- someone you can call when things get bad to talk you through it.
2. Try your best not to pick up/accelerate bad habits. A lot of people start drinking, or drinking more. Or they can't focus at work and call in sick a lot, or they blow off other parts of their lives (house maintenace, personal grooming, fitness, whatever you do) to be sad. Yes, be sad...but also be safe. (I did all of those things, which is why I bring it up)
If you want to talk in a more private setting, lemme know in-game and i'll get you my email address. I spent a good three grand on therapy during the process, and if you need it, I can re-use some of what I learned. If not, i'll not bug you about it again.
