I got a package! →[More:]It's my parents' copy of my uncle's book. I loaned to it my ex, who loaned it to her mother, and then we broke up. Thinking about not getting this book back made me feel awful. Her mother must have sent it to me - it was intact.

I'm still hoping I'll get the shirt I left at her place. It was my favorite button-down.

Glad you got your book back; it sounds irreplacible. The shirt, I'd give up on and try to find one just like it at the store.

I just (as in, half an hour ago) finished the "stuff exchange" with my ex. These are not fun days.

Wait, mike, does this mean you broke up with the girl you went on the weekend with or your ex wife? i'm so confused.

Girlfriend, eth. The ex-wife stuff exchange won't end until our daughter is 18.

There seems to be a run on bunny separations.
