Or probably what a clueless fucking moron he's married to now
or what an oversensitive hussy I am.
Take your pick.
Anyway, today, a nice big box comes for pinky, addressed from her father in her stepmother's handwriting. Probably about 18x24. I'm confused because pinky's birthday isn't for another two months and for her last birthday, they sent her two pairs of five dollar leggings from walmart with the tags attached. Plain.old.leggings.
Anyhoodle, I think to myself, hmmm wtf, should I open it? And because I'm nosy I decide to proceed figuring if it's wrapped in there, I'll leave it be.
First comes the balled up paper.
Then more balled up paper.
Then more balled up paper.
And then a photo album with of pictures of these two cheesebags smiling and happy and fawning over pinky's new baby sister.
That's it. No letter, no card, no big sister shirt, no we miss you, no hope to see you soon, no additional information. Just a photo album.
More than one picture is of this child sporting a daddy's princess tee shirt.
Thankfully, she doesn't notice these things and I swear to shit, I keep my rage to myself and let her form her own opinions but my god to these people suck.
I'm so glad I opened it. I was able to just hand her the photo album and have her go awww baby, instead of saying, look, your stepmom sent you something and risk having her get excited about something that wasn't.
Also, I feel better about ignoring the phone on mother's day. She sees pinky three times a year. No effin way was I going to let pinky tell that heifer Happy Mother's Day.
Fuck.no.
Oh did I mention that for more than three weeks after that kid was born, neither one of them called?
Also, her middle name is the first name we settled on for pinky until I changed my mind at seven months pregnant. Which isn't stab worthy, I promise. Just amusing to me.
Oh, and I'm not sure I mentioned this one but they have a room for her at his house, which is nice and sweet and all that. But instead of her real name, he put a nickname up on the wall. This is the same nickname I used for pete when he was small and yes, he should be aware of that. Dim bulb, I tell you.
I hoped that once she had her own kid, she'd wake up and realize that Pinky is douche's child. Unfortch, apparently she went the other direction and Pinky was a Starter Child.
Oh wait you forgot to add about how the stepmom is obtuse. It seems like she took the cake on this one.
Is he your son's dad too? Why wasn't it addresses to both of them?
He's not. I'm skank that way. And yet, the pictures pinky brought back from her last visit show that he has a picture of pete and pinky framed and on a table in their foyer. A picture I don't have a copy with because he took all the baby pictures of pinky he could find when he moved out.

Your nicer than me. I wouldn't have even given her the pictures. I have a big box of crap from DD1's bio family that didn't make the "give it to her cut" because it was inappropriate for whatever reason.
I'm glad you opened it. I screen everything first.

Pinky is what, 8 or so? Old enough to coo at her baby sister but realize she's got a great family as it is and not think about much beyond that. But yeah, definite chode-ness on the part of your ex and his wife.
