I think I allowed myself to become angry at my 5 yo for being a goober as my latest offense to myself.

    On Monday. My lovely boss, who doesn't really have a filter, or couth....had sent me an email on Friday to say the paycheques were in her mailbox. But she didn't say it in the body of the email, and I missed it. Monday she calls, says, "I guess you don't want to get paid?"....I said I didn't see the message saying cheques were ready...Her response? "I guess I didn't spell it out for you." Just a stupid little sentence, that went right through me. I work hard, and ALOT to get our work done, and for very little pay. That sentence, to me is the same as saying "What are you, stupid?" I left it, as we are in our final weeks of employment and it wasn't worth the bs, but it stuck with me all week.

    I'm offended about how easily offended you are.

    THAT would have really upset me. There are few things that bother me as much as someone implying I'm stupid, which that clearly did (and which you are CLEARLY NOT)

    RIGHT???!!!!!! I spent all week wondering if my skin was too thin.....Thankyou for confirming it's not! You are both fabulous!

    17 years ago. Can't even remember the details. I just remember that it was over my daughter and I got mad at my wife. Luckily, we had just had a truck load of soil delivered. I abruptly left the room and went outside in the rain and began wheelbarrowing soil from the front yard to the back yard. Took hours. My wife knew to leave me be, but my daughter, who was 5 at the time, came to the back door, with tears in her eyes, and asked me what she did to make me so mad. I felt like shlt. Told her she did nothing wrong.

    That, by the way, was my one and only fight (if you could call it that) with my wife. She does not even remember it.

    As for me, I'm pretty chill but "never read the comments" is a piece of advice I should follow more often.

    Last night. I'm an asthmatic that was also diagnosed with sarcoidosis in January. Needless to say I'm anxious about it. My wife works in health care and is very cold when it comes to my health etc. Last night she belittled me in front of the children. Not cool.

    I allowed myself to get angry with my 6 year old last night when he kept interrupting his mom and eye when we were trying to have a serious conversation about something that was important.

    Fortunately, I don't really get offended too easily...life would suck if I were as easily offended as so many people seem to be. I don't remember the last time I felt berated...even when I was in boot camp, it was hard just to not laugh at the over the top attempts to "break me."

    No? I can't get past Hugh Laurie's fake American accent.

    That is NOT cool at all, agreed. Sometimes we just don't think about who may be listening, I'm sorry xo
