Part Two

Just found out that Wife has, yet again, done the one thing that pisses me off more than anything. Spent my money that's safe away in my bank account, without telling me.

As she plays Second Life constantly, I decided to let her have a Pay account. This was so she could buy Linden Dollars and not have to get me to do it. This was on the proviso that she told me about it. She spent £54 on them, without a word. It's not as if she just forgot to tell me, either. When I asked "Why has Second Life taken 50-odd quid twice in a week?" her reply was "Because the account renewed". I asked again why the other 50 had gone too, she replied "Because I bought Linden's, okay?!"
At least she told me the truth, though. Times in the past I've asked "Why has Second Life taken this money?" and gotten "I dunno, do I?" so I've gone to change my Paypal password - someone is obviously stealing from me. But instead of support, I've had "Bu

I wrote a story for an erotic magazine and got a complimentary issue as payment. This was posted from the USA, so a very obvious air-mail envolope. I got home one day, about a month and a half ago, and found it by accident, having been opened and placed in a hard-to-find area of the livingroom. It was in the envolope and It had obviously opened it to see what it was. The kind of thing you tell your husband about, right?
She still hasn't mentioned the delivery to me.
She does this with my post regularly. At weekends I sometimes hear "Oh, there's a letter downstairs addressed to you, it says you need to owe this company money. It got here on Monday."

Part One

No, it's not a play on words. I hate my wife. Though as She ensures she is as big a part of my life as possible, I suppose I hate my life too.

I'll not address her looks and I have nothing against my son or daughter.

I'll start with today, just one thing to kick it off.

I work 9-5 for the technology side of a logistics company. I quality control mobile phones, getting paid 6 thousand pounds per annum less than someone else doing my job. Half hour for lunch, two fifteen minute breaks. I drive, so in all I have almost two hours of time alone - all spent doing something. When I got home and put tea in the oven (this was today, but also pretty standard) I found my 2-year old daughter was asleep. Twenty minutes previous, I asked Wife on the phone, to ensure Daughter didn't fall asleep, which I was told "She won't." I knew this meant Daughter would stay awake until after 10pm.
Almost 7pm, Daughter wakes. 7.30 I put Son to bed. 8.50 I get to stop watching Hannah Montana and put Daughter to bed. 9.30 Wife goes to sleep. I get half an hour of relaxation before having to sleep to get up at 6am?! If I'm not looking after the kids, I'm working or entertaining Wife.

If Wife gets bored, I have to stop whatever I'm doing and do something to entertain her. Watch tv with her, play a game so she can watch and nap, look at failblog.org... I interupt reading comics, writing, playing Flash games, watching cartoons/movies/anime - just because she wants to stop playing Second Life for the first time in 9 hours that day.

She has around 10 Second Life accounts. Not including the 20 or so she's deleted. She plays it from 8.30am until 5.30pm. Some days she 'Can't be bothered' to take Son to school, so just sits in bed "looking after the kids" and playing Second Life. When confronted about housework, taking Son to school or helping dress either kid just once, I get "You try having a bad back and being in agony all the time!". Two doctors have told her that her back hurts a lot simply because of her weight. The same weight that:
Stops her from crouching.
Stops her getting out of the bath without holding the sink.
Makes her take up an entire side of a double mattress that fits myself and either child.
Ridded said mattress of its firmness.
Stops her kneeling.

Do come back next post. There's more. I've not touched upon her speaking, yet.
