The Like/Hate Thread

[Vad]

My wife tends to do this (although she's done a very good job in NOT doing this within the recent couple of years). Her dad basically can't be trusted not to leap back into drunken binges and start calling harassing her to vent about the divorce with her mom. Everytime, she has to get her number changed to stop him from doing things that will leave me desiring the coordinates for a nuclear strike. But since she still needs to keep her grandmother with a contact method (she doesn't like her grandmother not being able to contact her in the event of an emergency) and her grandmother feels that her son can do no wrong and thus "deserves" to know the number too, it creates a problem. So far the most recent time hasn't been an issue, but whenever he manages to convince either of the two of them enough that "I'm better now and I feel really bad for what I did in the past, I'm so sorry" he ends up getting her number. Then two months later he is back on the voice mail with a total drunken rant "You fucking ungrateful little bitch, its your fault we divorced, etc" type bullshittery again - and I start eying the kitchen knives again and asking Erin if we have enough in the bank account to make another impromptu trip to VA.

xD! I'm sorry, but the nuclear strike and knives reference made me lol.

Sorry to hear that he's a pain. =(
