30 Day Blogging Challenge Day 20: The last argument you had.

I had to think hard about this one. Because Wendy and I work together, play together, live together, and sleep together, we are around each other all of the time. Our daily arguments are summer cloudbursts: they arrive without warning, are largely inconsequential, are gone before you know it and then they are quickly forgotten. Thus, I had to think hard to remember one.

This past Friday I remember coming downstairs in the early evening. Wendy asked me in a curt tone if I had made any decisions about supper. I immediately felt snippy and replied in matching curtness that I didn’t know it was my responsibility to decide anything about supper to which Wendy complained in some fashion that I’d been upstairs in my office (and, I guess, clearly not communicating about supper). We then dropped the snippy tone and decided on something to eat.

That was it. Shocking, I know.

Does anyone know of a good marriage counselor? 🙂
