First Communion Class

  • Ex-Wife: [Jan 23] There is a parent/child First Communion class on February 9th from 9AM to noon at the old church (the one we were married in). Please let me know if you plan on attending.
  • Me: [Jan 23] Sounds like fun. Is this a required class? If so, can you provide me with contact information (i.e., a phone number) for the person that makes that decision?
  • Ex-Wife: [Jan 23] You want the contact information? Why must you go over my head when I try to set up appointments, etc? I am telling you all the information. Will you be there or not?
  • Me: [Jan 24] No, I am not going over your head, and no, you didn't give me all the information. Is it required? Can you provide me with some contact information?
  • Me: [Jan 25] Do you have this information?
  • Me: [Jan 29] Do you have this information?
  • Ex-Wife: [Jan 29] I have called and will let you know when she gets back to me.
  • Ex-Wife: [Jan 30] I received some more information regarding Feb. 9th. Apparently the time is from 9am to noon but we can go anytime. We will go through learning centers that should last about an hour. You do not have to go but Gabrielle and I will be going.
  • Ex-Wife: [Jan 31] There is another one on March 8th at 1pm that I cannot go to. Would it work out for me to go to the one on Feb. 9th and then you can go on March 8th?
  • Me: [Jan 31] Is it required for Gabrielle to attend? Do you have a phone number?
  • Me: [Jan 31] I just want to know if this stuff is required. I would also like a phone number. If I have the girls and the event is required, we will go.
  • Ex-Wife: [Jan 31] Yes the classes are required. I have the girls both of the weekends; Feb. 9th and March 8th. Will you be attending? Again, I wouldn't mind taking her on the 9th if you could take her on the 8th. Let me know.
  • Me: [Jan 31] I guess I'm just looking for more information. Could you pass along a phone number for me?
  • Ex-Wife: [Feb 8] Gabrielle and I will be going to St. [name]'s tomorrow around 10AM. Please let me know if you plan on attending.
  • Me: [Feb 8] Could you send me a phone number for someone who can provide me with some information about the event? I believe I've been asking for this number for almost three weeks. It is now the 11th hour and I still have minimal information about this event. Thanks!
  • Ex-Wife: [Feb 8] You are delaying this and being stubborn because you don't want to go...then you're going to try to make me look like the bad guy.
  • Ex-Wife: [Feb 8] I gave you all of the information. There is no reason you need to call anybody. Yes it is required. It is from 9am to noon and you can go anytime in between. The stations will take us about an hour.
  • Me: [Feb 8] Can you just give me the name and number for someone in charge?
  • Ex-Wife: [Feb 8] If you really cared you would have found the number on the internet. You know where to find that...you don't need me to give you any of that...again, just another stall tactic of yours. I really wasn't expecting you to go...and now you'll blame me for the reason you didn't go because you didn't get a phone number. I told you all of the information.
  • Me: [Feb 8] Well... I called a few hours ago and they told me the person I need to speak to is gone for the day. I also spoke with Gabrielle, she told me she wants me to attend. At what time will you be at the old church?
  • Ex-Wife: [Feb 8] Well, I guess you should have called sooner. We will be there close to 10AM.
  • Me: [Feb 8] Why didn't you give me a name and number back in January?
