My marraige is OVER

After 16 wonderful years together, My wife and I have decided that we've grown to far apart to mend Us back together.

I've got to give Her credit, out of all the years we've been together, She's been the sound, stable, one who's been the 'voice of reason'. She's always let Me do My crazy things over the years without judging Me to much. She's been a good, patient mother of our 2 kids. She's been happy with Us in the good times and the bad. She was my high school sweetheart!! But I think over time, My craziness and personality has just eroded Her away to the point She just can't handle it anymore. I think all these years, She's thought She's had 3 kids instead of 2, but that 3rd kid (ME), just never grows up. In fact, He just gets weirder and weirder.

I, on the other hand, have had Myself quite a few different jobs, all of which I excelled at, but never found happiness. And here I am, 20 years later without a job (by choice). Yeah, I guess I can see Her point, it would be nice to have some stability in the family. And it would be nice to have a 'stable' father figure as the kids get older. Sure, now that the kids are young, it's all fun and games and Daddy is goofy, but as They get older ... who will be that stable father figure? Well I guess the verdicts in ... it won't be Me.

So by this summer, I'll be moving out of the S.O.L., and the Mrs. will stay here and get most of the 'stuff' We accumulated over the years. I'll take one of the vehicles and a little cash and head out to 'who knows where'. I think that's what I really want to do anyway. Maybe eventually selling the vehicle and living on the banks of the Mississippi or something ... just taking in nature, staring at the stars and wondering 'what the hell are we doing here?'

Yeah, life can sure throw some curve balls at you, but I guess most of the 'sane' couples out there could have probably seen our situation coming. It was just a matter of time before My strangeness finally broke the camels back. I guess all in all, I accept most of the blame for Our lost battle. I only hope that We leave each other peacefully and still friends, and that I get to see My little girls every so often. Who knows, maybe one year down the road, My loving wife will actually let the girls come visit Me in My cabin in the Rocky Mountains or something. At least one can hope!!

In closing, I just want to say I'm not bitter, I'm not mad, I'm just thankful for the years that I've had with Her and the kids. I'd also like to point out that once again, everything I've written today is total bullshit, and not one word you've read today has been true. And if this very blog doesn't show that I have the greatest wife in the world to put up with the crap I pull, then I don't think there is anything I can do or say to prove it. I am ... by far ... the luckiest guy in the world. Now if you'll excuse Me, I need to go spend the rest of the day kissing My wife's butt to make up for the torture I put Her through. That is IF She's still talking to Me after reading this.
