I am not going to go into this too much this morning because:a) I'm still wrapping my head around it and I should probably not use the "c" word to describe Neal's former employer on a public space. That would probably be immature. And...
2) I wrote a guest blog for Krysten while she's off sunning herself and drinking margaritas by moonlight in Mehico. So, go visit me over there today and then come back tomorrow and hear my rant. I should be dried up and cried out by then.
At Krysten's @ After I Do , I am discussing the pros and cons of marriage...which, now that I think about it, is wildly appropriate, seeing as we seem to be in the throes of the "for worse" part. And while you're over there, give Krysten a follow. Just her posts about hubby Dustin make it worth it. Also? She's blogging with 2 other fellow bloggers on The Wife Diaries, which is amazing just in title alone.
I'll be back tomorrow. More sober and less angry....well, less like The Shining angry and more like P!nk angry. And I'll be looking for a free version of champagne...which could involve a gassy husband in the garden tub.
Dammit dammit dammit!!!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could get in my car right now and drive there and take you out for Champagne Friday. Let's just say that it's on a bit of a hiatus?
Let me know if there is anything I can do, even if that "anything I can do" is just listening to you vent.
I raved about your rainboots over on my blog today, BTW. Thank you again for sending me that website!
DUDE. I am so so sorry to hear it. What the HELL??
ReplyDeleteJust know that I am thinking about you today and sending positive thoughts your way. We're here when you need to vent.
xoxo
OH NO!!! Bastards. Clearly they are unaware of how awesome Neal is and how much their organization is going to suffer for losing him. Jerks.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry that you have to deal with this. If I can do anything please let me know.
Thank you for the hugs you sent me today...I'm sending them right back over your way!
xoxo
Oh no!!!!! I'm so sorry - that totally sucks.
ReplyDeleteBut now I'm confused because I thought he was in the army. And typically they're always looking for people, not getting rid of them - no?
You know what they say - when one door closes another one opens. Once you've got a good cry or five out of the way, maybe something good will come to light.
Hearts & hugs to you my dear.
Personnally...I think you should have used the C word. I'm just sayin'....
ReplyDeleteOh no!!! I'm so sorry Allyson =(
ReplyDeleteoh no!! i am so sorry!
ReplyDeletei would totally bring you champagne every friday.
sending positive thoughts and way better, more awesomer jobs for hubs your way!
Oh Damn. You have got to be kidding me. can you send champagne through the mail? Or is that frowned upon? Because I need to send you some bubbly, like right now.
ReplyDeleteholy shit yo. im so sorry. SO sorry.
ReplyDeletei know words are just words, but i would totally love to go get MANY drinks with you.
tell me what i can do to help.
oh and i agree with anonymous. mature is overrated.
ReplyDeleteBIG fat SAD FACE!! Employers who lay off their employees are the worst kind of people!! don't EVEN get me started or any of us really, we will form a angry blog mob and kick some ass just for you and Neal!
ReplyDeleteThat sucks major balls. I'm so sorry! Go for the $5 bottle of Cooks extra dry. I'm a wealth of knowledge on the subject of drinking on a shoestring budget. Some things just can't be sacrificed to the Mortgage Gods.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear this! Feel free to vent away here. We are all ears. Hang in there. It'll be easier to think and make plans next week.
ReplyDeleteThat suck! I'm so very sorry for you guys. I'm sending you positive thoughts, virtual hugs, and virtual cocktails.
ReplyDeletexoxo
Been there, done that and it ain't no fun. However, I have observed that there really always IS a better job out there - if you can only hang out until you find it. More positive thoughts from here. and love...
ReplyDeleteAllyson, so sorry to hear this. It's always awful, but here's hoping it will lead--as these things so often do--to even bigger and better things. Meanwhile, though, it sucks.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHA a gassy husband in the garden tub.
ReplyDeleteMr. Fairway just went back to work full-time after almost 2 years of "this and that," and mostly staying home and doing errands and laundry. The laundry part is the only thing I miss, seriously. Hang in there...
ReplyDeleteOh, no, Ally! I'm sorry...and sending virtual hugs and champagne. Not sure I could handle the gassy hubby in the garden tub variety. ;)
ReplyDeleteGirl I'm so sorry - if you need anything holla! Life can be SO unpredictable. M's brother just got out of the Navy and he and his wife had plans to move back here from Florida, just not right away. He was going to go to school and she was going to be the bread winner. Less than a week out of the Navy, her company laid her off. So much for their well made plans. They are still planning a move and thankfully M's father owns a business and his brother can work for his father - but still bites that he won't be finishing school which was the main reason he joined the Navy (we've discussed this).
ReplyDeleteBLERG! If you need anything hit me up girl! :(
I am so sorry to hear this...I'm sending hugs and cocktails your way.
ReplyDeletep.s. loved those boots you told Salt about...
Fuck. Can I say that here? ;)
ReplyDeleteSeriously though, y'all are in my prayers. I hope a solution comes soon. VERY soon. Like before next Friday soon.
Holy crap lady! WTF!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could come to you and take you out for some much needed alcohol.
I promise you, if you can get through the "for worse" part it makes the "for better" part SO SO worth it.
I hope you two are doing okay. Huge hugs to you!
ohgosh. i'm just now seeing this. i will send every single good thought i have your way and cross all of my fingers and toes for you guys.
ReplyDeleteeverything will be all right. (big hug.)
really.

P!nk angry is great... and I can say that they are cunts... ;0)
ReplyDeletehugs
This is so crappy, hope you are a little less angry now. I found you though Cher's The Only Girl blog and I'm a new follower.
ReplyDeleteHope everything works out.

Neal is a very talented person and I know he will turn this in to a positive. Hang in there
