I've successfully convinced my 3-year old son he MUST drink some water EVERY time he coughs.

I just now realized that my wife is gaslighting me, and she doesn't even know it. She doesn't even know what it is. AND, she won't read up on it and consider whether it might be true. =(

My growling stomach just reminded me I haven't eaten dinner yet. It's amazing how long my anger and resentment toward my wife can sustain me without food when I have to have contact with her.

The school sent a repairman (because, China) to fix my faucet this afternoon. I suppose I don't have to spit toothpaste and mouthwash into the toilet anymore, but I will.

I'm extremely disappointed. Season 2 of Super Wings introduces two new characters...planes that wear hats. =/

BTW...my son was diagnosed with a mild case of bronchitis, probably from his slightly reduced immunity after having his tonsils and adenoids out 3 weeks ago. Medicine acquired.

I survived.

In other news: the handle on the faucet in my dorm room's bathroom sink broke yesterday. It's made me realize how little I need that faucet.

This afternoon, I'll go with my wife to take our son to the hospital to have his cough checked out. If you don't hear from me in 4 hours, assume I have been murdered, and my wife is my killer.

My crazy wife just made me an offer: if the woman she thinks I'm interested in says she will be with me after our divorce, my wife will sign the settlement agreement. It's tempting to ask the woman (my good friend) to take her up on that offer, if only for a little while. But I know my wife is only lying again. She'll never sign the settlement. She wants me to admit to being interested in my friend then destroy my friend's life.

It's funny how the person who mistreated you for 4 years suddenly "can change" and "deserves another chance" because they only now realize that what they did to you was wrong and deep down, that's not who they truly are... except...it really is who they are, and they couldn't really change if they wanted too, and they secretly believe they've done nothing wrong and blame you for "breaking up the family" and continue trying to hurt you all the while claiming they HAVE changed. No. That's sick.

It's day 56 of my separation from my wife. I messaged her about her or her mother watching our son while I have an interview to conduct and classes to teach...she launched into begging me to come back "home." I'm already home.

It's been 55 days since I separated from my wife, but she still doesn't understand that I wouldn't go back to her if she were the last person on Earth.

Got a problem? The solution is simple: Don't eat. Don't sleep. Eventually, it solves itself.

Last night, I sat down to watch Split (2016). But apparently there were 2 movies with this title released in 2016. Unfortunately, I started watching http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3315656/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2 instead of http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4972582/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1. Needless to say, I was disturbed.

Am I seriously considering buying a new notebook computer simply because Windows 10 repeatedly installs graphics drivers that break everything despite my indicating in several "settings" that I don't want Windows Update to install new drivers? Yes. Yes, I am. =/

This is the school where I teach (and live).

I've updated my daily step goal to 14,000 to represent my increased desire to walk away from my wife a little faster each day.

Yesterday morning, my wife finally agreed to sit down with me "soon" and work out a divorce settlement agreement. Yay!
