You can’t have it both ways

Today makes 24 years since Mrs. Chaffee died.  I will always remember her.

Today’s entry:

Dear Mikey,

You almost demand that I stay in the living room, where we’ve been sleeping lately, so that if you call for me, I’ll hear it.  Well, this morning, for example, I got a telephone call.  I stayed in the living room while talking.  You woke up and got angry that I woke you up.  You said you didn’t get to sleep until after 5am.  Okay, two things I have to say about that:

1)  I didn’t know you stayed up so late.

2)  You can’t have it both ways.  One thing you said to me this morning was that I should have gone to another room to talk. 

I needed to have access to my computer for that talk.  Where’s the computer?  In the living room.  Where do we sleep now?  In the living room.  Where do you want me to stay?  In the living room.  

I didn’t wake you on purpose.  You can lose your attitude problem and learn how to be a nicer person.  The world doesn’t and will not revolve around you.  It is 10:30am, and life goes on for everyone else, whether it does for you or not.  Yes, we can be as quiet as possible, but there’s only so much we can do.  You have no right to be mean to us for living a normal life.

Now, with all that said, I know not one goddamn thing will change.  Nice.

I love you, but right now I don’t really like you.

YOUR Jack…..which makes me feel more like a slave than a husband, at this moment.
