My last post was in June of last year... and I really don't have a whole lot to say, but now that I've said that, watch this be the longest post I've ever written.
So, so many things have happened.
Norman and I celebrated 2 years of marriage in June...
and we went to Oregon at the end of the summer.
And I turned 25 in October, we had a big party in November for my birthday.
We celebrated Christmas at home (not in Glamis, unfortunately).
We ordered new couches at the beginning of this month. We found a place in West Sac that happened to have a booth at Denio's, so we ordered from there. Two loveseats and a couch for a great price. The day after we ordered, they called to say they didn't have the fabric color we wanted, which was the only option for us out of the colors they DID have. The color we wanted was called "garden" and it was a beautiful sage green. The colors they have were called "oak" which was a light tan (way too light for our house), "fudge" which was a chocolate brown with red in it (wouldn't work with our red carpet, as I don't want the red to be a focus), and "wine" which you can imagine is a beautiful burgandy. So "garden" it was... except not. They called us and said they had no idea when the fabric would be in. So our options were to wait or pick a new color. And I wouldn't have minded waiting, but how long? No one could tell us... 2 weeks? 6 months? Your guess is as good as mine. So we headed to Ashley Furniture here in town and found some in a chocolate brown that we liked better for the tiniest amount of money more. They'll be here in a week and a half. Now to get our money back for the others (oh yeah, did I mention we paid in full for the ones we won't be getting?). Anyway, we headed down to Denio's on Saturday after calling them and telling them we wanted our money back. Problem is, they called us on Saturday to say that they'd forgotten our money in West Sac. So to West Sac instead of Roseville. No biggie... it's only an hour and a half away. *rolls eyes*
Oh yeah, and the thing that's really been affecting my life lately is the news that my boss was sleeping with a co-worker. Not even just sleeping with her, but dating her. No big deal... except the wife and 4 kids he has at home. Opps! Bad judgement call? I'd say. And when you ask me "why her?" you bet your ass I'm going to defend her, I mean, she's my friend. I'm not saying his wife is hideous (she's not, she's beautiful), and I'm not saying my friend was a trade down either. But when you ask me "why her?" I'm going to tell you why... She's amazing. She's cute, sweet, caring, spunky, and she's a helluva lot of fun. I get it. I don't really get her attraction towards him (I dislike him with everything I have), but everyone has a match, and if I had found out they were together (if he weren't married with kids), I would have accepted him because she's my friend. This affair was going on since April of 2011. That shocked me too. 9 months. I don't and never expected to be the person that either of them came to to get it off their chest, but I feel betrayed, and despite the fact that she's my friend, I feel more betrayed by him, not her. I mean, I never asked her about them. If there was anything going on. I suspected it, but I figured neither of them would step over that line. But I asked him about his trips he went on. His hiking trips. And he told me all about them. Not just simply "I had a great time, thanks" but all about a certain rock he climbed or how the weather was, and the types of conditions he camped in. Come to find out, he wasn't hiking. He was in Disneyland with my friend. He bought my friend an $800 necklace for her birthday. I came home after finding that out and told Norman if I ever didn't notice that much money missing, I would want him to call it off if he didn't have something shiny for me to show for it. Then, after finding out about the $800 necklace, I found out he bought her car. $1300. And her iphone. $200. And he paid for groceries and gas and Disneyland, not once, but twice. How the fuck do you not notice this kind of money missing? And they don't even have the excuse of separate accounts. Nope. It was all joint. I'm completely blown away. And now my whole work world is blown up. The last five years I have been working for a man who skeeved me out, only to find out he was a genuine jackass. It wasn't just me and my feelings. He proved me right. And that disgusts me more than letting me just think it. I feel awful for his wife... his kids... my friend. But I'm looking at him and laughing, because all I can think is "How dumb are you?". And then... here's the best part: There were 3 more. None at the same time. But there have been a total of 4 women (I worked with ALL of them) who he's been with. But my friend was the only "relationship" one. Consider my mind blown.
