Loathing and Needing

It really sucks when you need something from the one person that you’re not currently talking to.  My wife and I are in “tiff mode” again for some reason that eludes me.  I’m pretty sure that this time it was actually her fault, not that she would ever admit it.  This means that she is going out of her way to distance herself from me and not utter a single syllable in my vicinity.

However, this morning, she needed help adjusting her undergarments, because they were cutting into her back.  It was something that required two people, and lo and behold, she suddenly realized that the only other person in the house was the one person that she had spent the last 24 hours avoiding. 

That is both a humbling and irritating moment all at the same time.  I know because I have been there many times.  It is amazing, though, how something so simple as adjusting an undergarment can make the last 24 hours just disappear.
