i'm feeling a little hurt right now
my dad and sister flew out to new york without me yesterday. i know that, at 31, i can't expect my dad to pay my way on vacations now, but we've dropped about 500 bucks on our car over the past six weeks or so with more to come, so our disposable income has been zilch. which meant there was no money for me to even get a plane ticket. the worst part is is that they're actually getting into the city this time, an opportunity that has not been provided to me the last four times we've made the trek out there. it's one of the homes of my heart and it's been years since i've been able to see it.
i have more than just a bit of anger about this, because i know why my dad didn't have the money to take me. i'm feeling like a spoiled brat and that isn't helping the situation, either.
i'm crying crying and wanting to actually yell and scream at someone for the first time in several months. i'm mad about money, i'm mad about being left here and i'm mad that they're making the time to do something they never made the time for all the trips we've made previously. i thought i'd be ok with this, but was i ever wrong.
and there is no one to give me a hug.

4. thanks, peggy
i know some of this has to do with me being absolutely exhausted, my boss was out of the office this week, so i pulled a 50 hour week to do both our jobs. and the frustration at our financial situation. plus, i'm watching the house, so i'm sleeping away from my husband for a few nights, which always throws me off.
i'm not necessarily sure it's an issue of right and wrong, more that's just how it shook out this time. being an adult certainly sucks sometimes.

6. Me, too.
I can relate to being excluded from family dynamics, and it does hurt. Please know we will be here for you.

Goes to show just how alienated the DUmbass has made his family with his politics.

Oh my goodness, grow the f--k up.

That is why you will never be a boss, 50 hours a week exhausts you. :whatever:

Wait, is this DUmmie married? How would DUmmie's significant other feel if DUmmie went to New York without him/her?
Edited to add that I reread DUmmie's post, it's a she and she is married...to a man. You never can tell. :p
-
Female or (Biologically) male, that DUmmie needs to be bitchslapped repeatedly.
-
How can this happen when Horus has returned in the guise of Baraque J. 0bama with his promises of Skittle crapping unicorns for all His worshipers (except white males, including hispanic white males)?
Why is the primitive posting it on the DUmp when he could be starting a petition at the White House dot Gov?
Travesty!

I thought the OP was a male... :rotf:
All I could picture was a grown ass man sobbing at his computer desk.

I think the DUmmie is lying because surely in this 'wonderful' Obamaconomy it can afford a plane ticket. Or maybe the Obamaconomy really isn't that wonderful and the DUmmie voted for the zero because both are idiots.

She's 31 and house watching Daddy's home. This is a libs dream come true, why is she all upset? Now she can call up her 30 year old loser girlfriends and they can stay up all night drinking cheap wine and talking about boys.

She's on DU so it might be to talk about girls. Or furries. Or who knows what.

Things just haven't been the same for her around the old homestead since Rex got out and was hit by that darn car.
:popcorn:

i'm feeling like a spoiled brat
That's because you are one. Good grief DUmmy grow the hell up, there are a lot of things that I would love to do but can't afford to, yet I don't go around crying how unfair it is.

I see what you did there, DAT . . . H5!
-
Oh my goodness, grow the f--k up.
Really can't say it any better than this. She must also be bitter that Obamacare only covers deadbeat children until age 26.
-
I'm inclined to give her a break since she recognizes her reaction as purely emotional and irrational. She even slapped the calpgs hand when she said her father was wrong. Don't know if anyone caught that. It's calpig who gets me with her response. A 70 year old woman thinks its 'wrong' of the woman's dad to not sit at home and sulk with his daughter. That's the one who need to grow th **** up. The other lady just appears to be venting and knows her feeling is totally selfish. It sounds like she knows her upset is at the recent circumstances that made it impossible for them to go.
....wonders if calpig pays for all her children to go with her on trips. Hell the poetress can certainly afford it;) does she feel she was 'wrong' when she doesn't? Sorry her response is where I find hilarity. I think she just throws shit out there for false sympathy.

That is why you will never be a boss, 50 hours a week exhausts you. :whatever:
.....and that was to do TWO jobs......at work. So that proves she is only worth ten hours of pay on a normal week. :lmao:

I'm sure after she is done house sitting it would of been less expensive for dad to take her with.

So dummie... you know why daddy didn't have the money to take you, huh? I suspect the reason is because he gave it to you for your car.
Here is clue dummie. Daddy don't owe you a damned thing. You are 31 dummie. You made decisions in your life that resulted in you not having the money. Did you ever think that maybe Daddy is more than a little pissed at you?
BTW dummie... canines go mad, people get angry. Are you a canine?
-
Maybe it's not because her dad went without her, but that he took her sister. Or maybe she's just a pain in the butt to take on a trip.
-
Sure sign she's a DUmmie.
Actually WANTS to go to NYC.
If I was offered a trip to NYC, I'd say NFW! I'm as happy as a pig in slop right here in the boonies. :-)
-
Same here, DD.
I'm with you, jty. Calpig's response pissed me off more. Maybe Dad has his reasons. Maybe he's trying to make the little bird leave the nest. We don't always get what we want. That's just life. Fizzy said it, "sometimes it's hard to be an adult." Maybe Dad is giving a nudge. Mighty impertinent of Calpig to say he's "wrong."

Same here. Been to most of the Northeast big cities numerous times for job-related reasons. Great museums, everything else either ridiculously expensive, annoying, or downright dangerous. I'll be perfectly happy to never ever go back.
