Grumpy really wants to keep this whole divorce thing amicable. Good for him.
"We're keeping it amicable," he told his twice-divorced boss.
"Sure," said The Boss. "For now."
I think, don't you, that experience may have been this man's cruel mistress.
Anyway, Grumpy was minding a mate's house and there were a couple of cats thrown into the deal. He sent me a series of text messages extolling the virtues of these cats compared to our, admittedly somewhat mangy, pair. The new cats sit in his lap. The new cats like to meet strangers. And on it went.
Then he comes over here and expects an access visit!
So we went out for a coffee and I told him this kind of trash talk was going to see things go down hill real fast. He didn't seem to care. He seemed a million miles away. He was wearing a dark shirt and there was long white fur on his collar.
I came home shattered. I tried to gather the cats to my bosom but one of them scratched my leg instead.

Have you considered consulting a Pet Lawyer?
Or perhaps his cruel experience was his mistress?
THAT'S what I meant.
I don't know about you, but I'm beginning to think Grumpy is a bit of a dick.
Oooooh, nooooooo! Don't think that. You know, it MAY be that I exaggerate for effect.
It IS possible to keep it amicable, well done you two. When I divorce my New Boy (I'll be leaving him for Michael Franti of course) I intend to keep that amicable as well. 'Just keep it nice and amicable' I'll say. As I back away. Holding my car keys, and the gun.
Oh, I think we HAVE had too much caffeine.
Oh I'd take my comment as having a wee smidge of hyperbole.
I do so hope you continue with the Grumpy is a dick posts, I do enjoy the genre very much.
Don't you worry, there's plenty more where that came from!
My divorce was very amicable and it would have been more so, had I not said 'I do' in the first place.
He left me the sole provider of four cats and the government does not give moggie support.
