"what the hell are you thinking? what do you think im doing tonight? i have not drank one thing, i have not smoked one thing, i am completely sober and i went to the rodeo with some friends. and it is incredibly and entirely unacceptable that you call my sister up...or not call her but talk to her and you...tell her things. shes fourteen. shes having a hard enough time as it is. you do a really good job of making people feel really shitty and making them think that youre actually a really cool good guy. stay out of my and my families business. my sister is my sons aunt. you have no idea what goes on. we are not together anymore. you dont talk to my family. stop it bye."

i IMd abby last night, after i got off work. it was a friday night. sarah had picked up ashton from me earlier, but i suspected, seeing as how it was friday night, that she wouldnt be anywhere near him. not when friends and fun and parties are waiting.

so i asked abby, do you have ashton?
yeah
is sarah out?
yeah

this made me angry. when i am supposed to watch ashton, and i have to work at hours that inconvenience sarah and her social/work schedule, sarah says that its not her responsibility and that its my job to find a babysitter. when i suggest that abby might be able to do it until i can go pick him up, sarah bitches at me that its not abbys responsibility to watch my son. that its my job. well, what about your grandparents then? its not their responsibility either, youd better get that day off or find someone else to watch him.

that is the bitching i get. constantly. she also will throw in that abby is only fourteen, she cant watch him that much or for that long, etc etc.

and yet, every other saturday night when i dont have ashton, sarah has abby watch him. abby watches ashton very frequently when sarah is supposed to have him. abby will have ashton until 1 or 2 in the morning sometimes when sarah finally comes home from a night of drinking partying or socializing.

i just find it sort of amusing that sarah justifies that sort of a double standard. rachel is absolutely right when she says that when i have ashton, i have him the entire night. i dont pawn him off to someone else so that i can go out drinking. i have a few times, as i need time to spend with friends too, but in spite of what sarah says, she does it all too frequently. sigh.

so i TMd sarah last night just after midnight:

when are you going to stop going out and fucking around and actually start watching your son instead of dumping him on your sister and then bitching at me about how its not her responsibility whenever i have to actually work and ask you to have abby watch him for me.

ill give you one guess what her response to that was.
