So Much for the Love Dare
By Inge’ @ Dementia for 2
Yesterday hubs and I had a nasty argument. It started out as a conversation and ended up with insults and colorful language all around. All over politics. I am sick of politics. So much so that I told him I would no longer be having any discussion centered around politics with him anymore. I know this sounds like an impossible task, but I think I can do it.
In all fairness to him, he did come back home and apologize to me for what he said. To which I replied that world famous “Okay“. All of you know the tone I used and the meaning behind it so I won’t bore you with all of that. He just looks and me and says, “I thought you might apologize too.” Well, I didn’t and I should have.

The intersection at 32nd and Lyndale is apparently a treacherous one. 32nd’s overhanging traffic light is festooned with a large metal sign with bold letters indicating that this is an “Accident Reduction Zone.” I am never sure what to make of those. Not unlike any other intersection in the city, there is no obvious reason why this one is more accident prone than any other. I suppose it has something to do with its insignificance.
I was having a bad day on Tuesday. I was called into the boss’s office, frustrated by a non-compliant computer, and foiled by a printer that would not work for anyone. I joked to my co-worker that with the way this day was going that I would probably get into an accident on the way home.
