that I am the only one in this apartment (Gregory excluded...because he can't do anything anyway...including make messes...he has no toys to play with because he's too little) that knows how to:

1) empty the dishwasher
2) put dishes in the dishwasher
3) do the laundry
4) put away the laundry
5) clean the bathroom
6) put toilet paper on the roll
7) clean the kitchen
8) run the vacuum
9) throw food in the garbage rather than leaving it laying out
10) get up in the middle of the night with Gregory
11) leave the toothpaste UNgunked (there's so much toothpaste caked on the outside of the nozzle, it's gross...I bought my own toothpaste after that)
12) put laundry in the hamper

Ugh...the list could go on, but I'll leave it at that. I'll be going at it all day and I'm pissed off about it already, so I'd rather not be really pissed off about it.

It basically all started with Gregory crying this morning. Rather than get up with him and sit in the chair or console him by walking around, Brian continued to lay in the bed where he was crying initially. To be honest, if Gregory is crying laying in the bed, he probably isn't very happy laying there, so don't "SHHHH" at the top of your lungs hoping that he'll stop crying...IT DOESN'T FUCKING WORK!

At this point, I envy all single moms living alone with young babies. I don't know how I'd be able to do it...in fact, I don't think I could do it...then again, I wouldn't be leaving a pigstye to clean up every 2 seconds.

If he expects me to continue to be the maid when I go back to work on Tuesday as well as taking care of Gregory full time, he's got another thing coming. I'll kick him out...I'm getting tired of it.

Yes, you heard it...I'm going back to work on Tuesday. I don't want to, but I need to make money. Brian bitched at my spending habits, however, I buy things that we need for Gregory and things that we need (like food)...I also have to pay copays and insurance needs (not to mention, I had to pay for a $400 doctor visit out of pocket because the insurance was being retarded at the moment)...he spends his money frivolously on lunch everyday ($10 lunches...that's fucking ridiculous!) and going out to the bar and bowling...computer parts and games. I didn't realize that Gregory needed computer parts *rolls eyes*

Who am I to complain though...he doesn't listen to me when I tell him.

But yeah, back to the work thing...I'll be working Tuesday and Wednesday (the entire day) and possibly Saturday and Sunday. If I can somehow work four 10 hour days in there, I'll be getting the 40 hours that I need. I could possibly do 12 hours on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and 8 hours on Saturdays and Sundays. I can only do this for a month though before poor little Gregory has to go to day care. My mom said my work would make a killing on having an in house day care. It'd be a smart idea...but it'll never happen. I wonder who we make that suggestion to?

On other things, Nuttz asked what a credit score was in a previous comment. Here is the definition: A score ranging from 300 to 900 which reflects the credit worthiness of a borrower, and is primarily determined by timeliness of past loan payments (i.e. credit card payments, student loan payments, house payments, car payments, etc.)

In response to kkama67, I would assume that paying student loans would boost my credit score. As of now, they are current, however, they are stating that they have a deferred payment. I would imagine that when I start paying them and they are no longer deferred, it would make my score go up. Unfortunately, at this point, I have several VERY DELINQUENT credit card ones that are messing it up. Hopefully when it reflects my payments to the attorneys, it will go up as well.

At ikimashokie, I don't even want to bother contesting my credit score because I know all of that stuff is mine. If I knew that I could get away with it, I'd be all for contesting...but to me, I'd have to end up paying anyway.

LostSoul13, don't worry about putting your high credit score in my face. I wish I was more like you and didn't get credit cards when I was 18 and fuck up my credit the way that I did. Everyone has problems...unfortunately, right now is when my problems are...lol

AND, Silver-dot-, a 600 on the credit score chain is in the POOR range. The only thing that it's better than is the VERY POOR...the higher your number, the better it is...I think above POOR is FAIR, then GOOD, VERY GOOD, and then EXCELLENT (which, you better have damn perfect credit to get that)...

I guess it makes sense.

Yeah, I'd kick him. Or at least let him do it himself. Take care of yourself and baby, and let him do his own thing. He'll get tired of it.

you could complain to me, i'll listen! Sorry you have to go back to work. That will be a rough schedule. Let me know if I can help.

If he really loves you then he should realize how much stress you're under... maybe you should move out for a week or two, stay with a friend, and show him what it would be like without you in his life?
» randomjunk on 2007-03-01 06:19:59

Ah, I see. ^-^ I know the feeling completely! I don't wanna do those things, but I end up doing them anyone cuz no one else does. Grr...Aw, too bad you have to go back to work. My best wishes for everything!

I totally know how you feel about the chores.. it always seem like we're the maid and they're the master. If I were to tell my brother to do something, he'll nod his head but keeps his eyes on the thing he's doing and totally forget about what I told him to do. I'd love to kick is ass hard if he wasn't able to catch hold of my leg everytime I do that. Ahh.. thanks for the explaination on credit score.
» Nuttz on 2007-03-01 09:36:08

Perhaps you should put your ass-kicking-out boots on because I highly doubt that your going back to work is going to be a cause for a miraculous change. And your list reminds me of the list we have of things Chad can't do either. haha He puts things in the dishwasher that aren't safe (when he does load it). He did go atleast 2.5 months without doing a load of laundry..somehow), and...and...well you get the point. Good luck!

Actually there is something else that people consider besides your credit score. I forget what it's called, but it's how many credit cards you have open and ready for you to be able to use. The higher the limit on your credit card the better when this is concerned, but too many high limit credit cards can also be bad.

As for credit car payments, house/rent payments, utilities and student loans effect your credit more then credit cards. I'm trying to raise mine too.

I hope Brian gets his act into shape and starts to help out!
