Danish Woman Who Shares Same B-Day as Michael is a Hero – Here’s to Karin on her 40th!!!!!

Posted on August 30th, 2009 by HisHighness in IUC:Bits

As I wind my way around Europe on a promo tour for Unmasked I cannot help but think how much one of my closest friends, Karin Thomsen of Denmark, has in common with the King of Pop.  They are both courageous, incredible and humble human beings and share the same birthday.  And for years they have both put smiles on the faces of others through their art, Michael with music, Karin with her incredible handmade jewelry. 

Unfortunately, Karin has been battling cancer for years and it has gotten worse.  Still, we celebrated her 40th in Denmark yesterday with her incredible family and close friends.  Another one of my closest friends, Vanesa from Montreal, also made the trip.  She was Karin’s closest friend when Karin lived in Montreal for several years before returning to Denmark three years ago to be with her family.  Please, everyone send best wishes to Karin – she’s a true hero, and an inspiration to anyone affected by cancer.  My prayers are with her.

    @Keane Cyber Queen Supreme:
    Yes please say hi from me too. I’ve not been here for a while as been having a few problems. My husband of 13 years walked out on me and the kids for a woman he’s been having a affair with at work. So, roll on more Brange posts so I can really vent. Not that his desparate tart is an Ange. No, she’s 45, never married. no kids and was living with her parents. But she thinks he’s just wonderful so I guess that’s a powerful draw. He’s taking her n hols next week, with the money he’s saved by not paying the mortgage. Jesus, life sucks sometimes. Please Ian, give me a post I can bitch about- I need the release. The book is really good by the way.

    Dang lizzieb! You have my sincerest sympathy! Bitch, scream and yell all you want here – we are ready to listen and offer support. Nothing but truly evil thoughts are directed from me to the hussy and your son-to-be-ex: may they both rot in hell! :D

    @ladybert62:
    Thank you. I would be most grateful for all evil thoughts to be sent their way. Something fatal ideally. I never knew I could hate so much, it’s shocking really. Also feel fool as trusted him and am worried sick about how we’ll manage. Still ranting on here might be nice, at least my kids can’t hear me and I doubt I could say anything to shock you lot!

    @lizzieb:
    Go for it lizzieb! Say whatever you feel like – my heart goes out to you. I will truly think evil thoughts about those 2 selfish people and hope they end up hating each other in the near future! So sad for you and the kids – hope it all works out for you and the kids. Do you have family to help give you emotional support or are you all alone? I was always alone in my years of troubles so I understand how horrible that can be. Nothing but best wishes from me to you.

    @lizzieb:

    So sorry to hear about your situation. What a creep! I am sending you hugs. Hopefully karma will take care of your soon-to-be-ex and this woman. Let karma handle it and that way you won’t have anything to come back to you, karma-wise :)

    @lizzieb:

    Babe, am so sorry to hear that, and here I was thinking I had problems! What a pair of c*nts they are! (You really have to reserve the worst words for the best people IMO!). Not too much I can say to that other than 1) life is a bitch sometimes (generally more times than we like) and there is next to nothing you can do to prevent it 2) he must be a tosser to do what he’s done (as hard as that is to come to terms with considering your history together) and eventually you will be better off as a family without him 3) the CPS is there for a reason, get yourself a lawyer STAT if they aren’t coming up with the goods, don’t let him leave your children without a roof over their heads. Be practical now and deal with the emotion at a later date if you can manage it. So much of dealing with life is disconnecting from the pain and just soldiering on when necessary I have come to realise. The only way is up from here Lizzieb, you and your kids take care and we are always here for you to chat with x x x

    @lizzieb:
    Hi LizzieB. I’m with the other ladies, backing you up ALL THE WAY. No words of wisdom coming from THIS foolish woman because I’m pretty good at doing the WRONG thing, myself. I agree with Keane … the guy must be a “tosser” … and a cheater is always a cheater. So good riddance to him. Ranting about Brangie is a great outlet. And you can rant and rave all you want … Just one tiny, tiny bit of advice. Leave the HATE to the haters because hate hurts only one person. The person who hates. Don’t hurt yourself, hon. THEY are doing a good job of that. It sounds really bad at this time, but it’s true that the best revenge is to live a good life. A BETTER life, without the idiot. He sucks. She sucks. And they can suck together because that way, at least, they’re not out there hurting MORE people. They can hurt each other from now on. And you can just know that water (or skank) seaks its own level. And that’s the end of my preaching. xoxxoxoxoxo to you.

    Thanks for the kind messages. I have got a lot of support in ‘real life’ but this feels safer- can say what I want without little ears overhearing. Yes Keane, I have got a lawyer. That’s the third thing I did after changing the locks and photocopying all his pay slips, accounts etcto give to said lawyer. I also emailed his tart wishing her the very bext of luck, punched him several times, wrote fucking adulteror on his work shirts in indelible pen and tipped a gallon of water into the drivers seat of his car- yelling ‘bet your whore will think you’ve pissed yourself’ Feel bit ashamed now at that as it’s better to take moral high ground- a place they have no chance of reaching. Togi- I do hate. Sorry but I do. I hope htis will pass as I know it’s not healthy but I am only human. Thanks again all.

    @ Lizzie

    There are always reasons why men do what they do. Most men who are not happy at home have built up these feelings for years.

    There are lists all over the internet of things that women do that turn the men in their lives off,
    and make them more likely to stray. Sounds like you can be a bit moody my dear and if I had to guess you may have done some of the things on some of these lists.

    http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/166971/_four_types_of_women_that_drive_men_pg2.html?cat=41

    Sometimes in life things that we think are bad turn out to be blessings in disguise. At least you’re now at an age where you can still meet someone interesting who may not have some of the less favorable characteristics that your husband had.

    Either way. It’s over. Grow up and make sure you and your kids are comfortable and don’t stoop to his level again.

    I hate to say you’re part of the problem but your temper tantrum and behavior probably confirmed whatever it was about you that he wasn’t so interested in.

    It takes two people to make a relationship work, and two people to make a relationship fall apart. I’m sure you did something. You’re fortunate though. If you’re such a great catch he’s an idiot and at least now you can find a smarter guy.

    If you’re not in the mood to deal with men’s shenanigans then there are plenty of lesbians available.

    :-)

    lizzieb: sorry about your ex but life is full of suprises and it only takes one imoral woman to make an asshole man to feel like he is gods gift to womem but they forget that sometimes god forgot the wrapping and it is a default product. in a few years say 2 you will stop hating and start to feel the winner because you are that and he and she are the losers. i believe that even if they stay together for the rest of their lives there is one god that they have to answer too, and boy does that scare me shitless as i am no angel but draw the line at certain things. i left with a 5 year old and a 3 month old and today have two beatifull sons and a very happy and contented life and look back on my life and even though i speak to my ex ( no other woman involved thank god) i think what the hell did i ever marry him and can actaully laught at him and his ways that in my stupid youth i thought was cute.
    so hang in and vent your anger but let go of the hate sometime soon and love your kids rather loose a man than your kids and i will pray for you and hope you fell better soon. as for the one that says a man must have been unhappy and you are most likely at fault maybe she has taken some one elses husband and needs to justify her actions because a true man would open his mouth and tell you he has a problem with you and try to work it out not cheat that is a old excuse for the likes of pee brain pitt and jolie and most cheaters . jmo

    Thanks Keane and Jan. As for ‘Sara’ anyone who believes that men are from Mars bollocks might want to pause before making judgement on others. Maybe you are an ‘other woman’? Best of luck with that.
