child support comedy

I thought this was rather comical. I got paperwork in the mail the other day from the child support office. I'm supposed to fill out all this paperwork and go to court in February for my child support case against the sperm donor (referred to as SD from now on...don't like saying sperm knowing my mother reads this.) I figure there has to be some kind of mistake or that he's taking me back to court for some dumb reason so I call them up. After waiting 3447572352 minutes to talk to someone it turns out since his arrears is so high they want to RAISE his arrears payment from $50/mo to $650. Uhhhhh, ok that will really work since I only got one check for the entire year. I mean, come on. If I ain't gettin money now, I ain't gonna get another $650.

I can't really complain, I mean I did this to myself and to my kids by making such a horrible choice for a father. Thank god that I don't need his money to raise these kids but it would sure be nice. I even called him and offered to lower his payment and make the arrears go away if he would just pay $200. Of course he jumped at the chance for that but I told him he has to get the paperwork going. I'm sure even that won't matter. He has no interest in paying me anything. Not even $20. I guess I'm holding out hope that he'll hit the lotto and I'll get what I'm owed. All $94,000 of it.
