Last entry today, I promise.
WIFE: she came home late and frustrated. She tripped on something in the living room, got very frustrated, and then managed to hit herself in the face with a metal object. I also managed to lose a couple of things in the course of cleaning. All of these things frustrated her, and it showed. She proceeded to......... control....... herself.........and........not.....go.....off.....on me. Not at all. I could tell she wanted to for a few seconds, but it even had a different feel to it than the occasions when she used to make a show of controlling herself. She genuinely didn’t want to go off on me and found something else to do with the anger. Then she genuinely let it go almost immediately. (Not sure how I know that, but I do. The thing with increased contact with my subconscious seems to let me know stuff like that too)
Before, she’d have torn my head off all night, never mind that only one of the things pissing her off was remotely my fault. Not this time.
Matter of fact we’ve been getting along really well, enjoying each other’s company, for the last few weeks. I haven’t even felt any DEFCON 2 tension for a while.
