not quite done yet.
The way it works in Mexico, divorce, even by mutual agreement, is complicated. Not very, but enough that they make it emotionally hard to do it. You know it's the right thing to do, you know it's the thing you've decided, and yet. They will force you to look at the state of the world and make you believe, for a teeny bit of a second, that it will all be better if you just decided to stay with the man who denied you for the duration of your cohabitation. Because that would be best. A little self-sacrifice, and pollution will be gone, no human will ever suffer hunger, and travel will be free.
If you should still decide that you want to be divorced, if you voice the final yes, you still have to come over again, on the 10th of October, so that the speech can be given to you, again, and you can state that you still want a divorce and you want all bunnies and flowers to die in the planet. You are so evil, with your desire for divorces.
[Like this is something that we thought of doing last Sunday. Like maybe we haven't given it much thought. We should think about it some more.
Oh, please.]
Then you will of course exit the room, and a conversation will ensue with your soon to be ex husband, and that conversation will spin out of control. And you'll remember why you don't care that all bunnies will die if you get this divorce. You want to die, now. The reason you are without him now is that he makes you want to die, and you don't want to. Not when you don't see him.
So take tons of pictures of bunnies. And I'm sorry about all the pollution and the hunger. And the having to buy the tickets.
And the economy. Everything.
It will be better. This was the hardest part, you've done it.
