EOB’s and Running Shoes

So the ex called at 8:55pm. I answered the phone.
P-Hello?

J- Is Keith there?

P- yeah, hold on (called for Keith and let him know who was on the phone.)

K- hello?

J- hey, are you sleeping?

K- un, getting ready to

J- (raising voice) Well then why the hell did she put you on the phone?

K- what?

J- Why the hell did she put you on the phone?

K- (assertive tone) I wasn’t asleep

So now, she’s already pissed, because I put him on the phone, when he wasn’t asleep, and also because a letter he sent that she just got about EOB’s.

She opines as to how she handles the EOB’s, and says she doesn’t see what the big deal is as to why he has to get a copy, in the first place. She doesn’t see what the big deal is as to why he needs a copy of what her insurance pays.

SIGH….

So she talks to him about getting running shoes for their son, how expensive they are, etc. Keith looked up some and price was between $120-$140. She said she would probably spend $80. Keith joked that he would be him a $10 pair, and J said, “Cheapskate.”

Can’t even joke with her.
