Who have you pissed off today?

[DanaC]

Yeah. I gave that shit up about a decade ago.

Seriously: about half my conversations with J were like that when we lived together. Even now as friends, from time to time an innocent, though serious conversation will spiral into conflict. Rare these days, but unsettling when it happens.

Nowadays I live alone with my dog (no kids) and interact with the world and its other inhabitants more or less entirely on my own terms...
