Divine Retribution......
I spent today as arbiter between my two housemates, a former couple - both of whom have serious issues left from abusive childhoods.
He had been very rude and used some horribly inapropriate sexually insulting language. Ii finally shouted in his face that I never wanted to hear those words out of his mouth in my house again or he was on the street at that very instant (both will be gone soon as daveguitarman moves in the next 4 months or so)
Later he was helping me hang damp sheer curtains and fell, having hung the last one, and lacerated his privates with a table corner. In a somewhat hysterical mode, probably postponed hysteria - I should have been hysterical hours earlier when she, maintaining that she didn't like him any more, paraded through the house in a small towel, post-bath, she who is built like a tall endowed goddess and for whom the towel barely sufficed, and tried to tell me that he didn't notice her and she hadn't intended for him to - I began to cackle in a raucous voice, louder and louder and finally squeeked out between guffaws, as he rolled around on the floor, "I knew all along god was a woman....."

Dear Pearl,
I don't know if you'll remember me. I know you haven't visited my blog in forever, and you used to be a somewhat regular visitor. As I attempt to do every year, I'm cleaning up my sub lists, and removing those blogs which never visit. I am hesitant to do so with yours, as I was last year, because we used to correspond quite regularly, however I haven't heard from you in a long time.
I would hope that you will treat this comment/letter as an invitation to drop by again, and that we might regularly correspond through our blogs as we used to do.
Sorry about your household problems, but at least you get a chuckle out of their actions.

You just made my day. I am leaving to get more kleenex to wipe my face. I am still laughing!
