Gabriel's desire and intentions
I just spoke with Gabriel and he expressed that he would like to remain in Arizona permanently, and visit with me during school breaks. I shall contact my attorney and have him change my petition appropriately. I will continue with my intention of providing for Gabriel's financial needs and desires. I have explained to him that as long as I have the means he will not have to go without things he needs or should have, or live uncomfortably. I have made it very clear to him that any money or items I provide him are for his use alone and that if I find out that you or Sage have benefited in any way from anything I have provided Gabriel then anything beyond support for necessities will be promptly discontinued. When he no longer uses something which I provide him it will be returned to me, at my expense. It will not go to Sage. I don't care about your financial problems and I don't care that you and Sage may have to eat Top Ramen and spaghetti every day while Gabriel gets to order pizza or buy his own groceries with the money I provide him. If your situation reaches that point (as I believe it will over the next few months) and you will not allow him to buy his own groceries I will order them online for him and have them delivered. I will not have Gabriel living that lifestyle because you're too irresponsible and/or selfish with your money to properly provide for him. You can pursue child support from me, if you wish. Unlike you, I would not withhold support for Gabriel just to piss you off or to make things more difficult for you. But, one thing I can tell you is, based on our respective, documented incomes and the amount of time Gabriel will be spending with each of us, my child support liability under either California or Arizona law would be nil. I will provide for Gabriel's needs because it is the right thing to do, not because I was ordered by the court. On my end, I will continue with my plans of pursuing the 12 months of child support back payments from you. Unfortunately, for you, it is not a matter at the discretion of the court - it is mandated by California legislation. That money, once received, will go into Gabriel's savings for his long term plans. I have explained to Gabriel that once he makes this decision it is something that would not be easy to change (if it all) so he has to be absolutely certain it is what he wants. He said it is. I explained to him my concerns about you raising him in the way that you believe appropriate. He said he understands. I explained to him my concerns about the reasons he provided and suggested he take a bit of time to think it over. He said he's certain it's what he wants. And finally, I spoke to my attorney just now, and he's going to FedEx that check and the copy of the orders to you tomorrow so you should have it by Monday at the latest. I request that you please take Gabriel to get his passport photos over the weekend so you can take him to the passport office by Tuesday. Fox

I will have the photos take over the weekend. Due to work I will not be able to get to the court house until Wednesday at the earliest (I have a major production code deployment Tuesday evening which will not conclude until Wednesday morning at 5:30). My plan is to get his passport application filed and paid for no later than Thursday. I will wait to hear anything further from your attorney.

Re: Gabriel's desire and intentions
But weren't you laid off last week?

Re: Gabriel's desire and intentions
I don't mean to be a stickler, but I would like to point out that a court order takes precedence over work. You've had 10 months to take care of this so don't expect any sympathy from me or from the court. YOU caused me to be out of the country and no court in America is going to refuse me visitation so you had to know you would eventually have to get Gabriel's passport. Also, I've explicitly requested you apply for his passport for weeks now. It's your own fault that you kept delaying and it's YOUR fault that I now have to pay the additional expediting fee. We've been separated 11 years and we despise each other - so why am I still having to clean up your messes?

Re: Gabriel's desire and intentions
ok - first, I was not laid off - not sure where you heard that. Second, whether I go in Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday Gabriel will have his passport in time for the court scheduled visitation. And lastly - please stop communicating with me directly. You have an attorney and have expressed your desire for me to communicate with him only.

Re: Gabriel's desire and intentions
I never said you were laid off and I never said I heard you were laid off. Your life is a constant stream of chaos and drama. Things frequently go wrong for you and don't work out the way you expected. Then, you rely on others to fix them for you. This is a fairly indisputable fact when one looks at your history. You frequently have to change plans at the last minute (affecting other people's schedules) and break your promises to them. Do you disagree with this? Therefore, I don't believe for a second that the passport will be obtained in time - unless someone else has to step in and cover for you. Oh, wait, I've already had to do that. So, since I'M paying for the passport (because you fucked up by not doing it timely, like a responsible and caring parent would have) then I believe I have some say in the matter. Like I teach Gabriel, if you don't want to have to put up with other people shit, then don't be in a position where you're dependent on them. And now you're dependent on me. So just shut the fuck up and do what you're supposed to do. God, I'm so tired of your stupid bullshit. You're a fucking waste of skin and you and that other kid of yours always will be (because he has no one to teach him any differently). And, as for communicating with you directly, this correspondence directly relates to Gabriel and my right of visitation with him so, like it or not you will deal with me on this.

Apparently you wrote that entire thing looking in the mirror

I don't get your meaning. Please stop speaking in innuendos like you're in a poorly written made-for-tv movie and speak like a normal adult. You know who speaks that way? White trash people. Because they were raised in front of the TV and they think that's real life!
