Y6 D79

Okay, here's what happened:

Sunday during the day we got a text from our director who we have intentionally not told we were moving because we knew she would worry. It seems a mutual friend mentioned they saw our new place. She freaked out that we told 'everyone' but her and went radio silent until 1:45am when after drinking she decided we were going to be her scapegoats for everything else wrong in her life. She made two posts on facebook which were rude, condescending, and flat out mean. She uninvited us to her husband's birthday party and on Facebook, told us we were off cast. B was still awake when she saw those messages and saw I had a text. She read my phone and woke me up. This was 2:15. I called them right then and there. We were having a good day until all this. I tried talking with them but they were so drunk it became her yelling at me telling me how much I lie, and I am untrustworthy, and act like a teenage girl with my 'cliques'. Compare that to her husband telling me how much of a pain in the ass she is, how he will be at our wedding even if she isn't, etc. Mixed message central. If it wasn't for B, I would have told them both to go fuck themselves. B is afraid of losing the friends she has made because they will all be turned against us. No matter how much I tried to assure her that wouldn't happen didn't help. In the end I was up until almost 4. I managed to fall back to sleep until 7 thankfully.

Got up at 7, took care of emails, timesheets, expense reports, and made a couple of phone calls for work stuff. During all that I wrote a letter to our cast advisor explaining what happened and how hurt we were. She called me back later and we discussed things. She 100% understands if we decide to not go to any shows for a while. Teach our director a lesson that she can't abuse people like this. To the best of HER knowledge, we were in fact NOT kicked off cast.

I needed to wait for one more receipt to come from the car company from last week and while that was happening, B and I did some more packing. Things are almost done. Some random odds and ends for today and tomorrow. Tomorrow we are taking a load over to the new place along with her car. Some friends are going with us so we are loading up three vehicles with boxes. We kind of know which boxes are going with us.

During all this, the husband called. He too confirmed we are not off cast and told me some of what was going on in their lives. Turns out his son has Crohn's Disease at 19 and this was part of what triggered his wife to lash out. While I am empathetic I also told him how hurt we were. He had no good justification for his wife but apologized and told us how much he appreciates what we do for them. While that helped, it still doesn't resolve the issue. I am still pissed off and hurt.

After that I worked on a new training document for work. I am putting together an SPSS Modeler class and finished the strawman yesterday. For dinner we had taco bell because frankly there's little to no food here and there's no room.

I also managed to get a hold of the Franchise Tax Board. They did in fact lose my return. I had to make a copy of mine after luckily figuring out which box it was in. Mailed that off. In 2-4 weeks I should see my money. It will help after this move that's for sure. After paying 2 rents, bills, and a truck, I have $500 to last me through the week. I was able to pay $2100 to two places mind you in a two week period so it's not like I couldn't do it, it just drained me. The $3200 from the state will put me back where I need to be.

B and I watched Jumanji last night after hearing about the tragedy of Robin Williams dying. That is a serious tragedy to say the least. Someone I grew up with and loved. Goes to show, even those who make us laugh the most are suffering themselves.

We looked up some storage units near the new place because we have decided not everything is going to fit as well. Plus there's things B doesn't want out. Fair enough. We found one for $40 a month which will give us more room in the new place. I am trying to work with her on this. I want her to feel like this is her place not just mine that she moved into.

Went to bed around 10:30 exhausted as it was a full day. Today is going to be final packing and organizing.

Oh and guess what? We were re-invited to the birthday party this morning. Go figure.
