Missing

The raging battle for household supremacy is ever-present in my jumbled brain. Since moving in with Carla three months ago, I have been soundly defeated at every decision. How to arrange the living room: her call. What food to buy at the grocery store: her call. When to fuck: her call.

I find myself resorting to the more minor offenses as retribution. I leave the twisty off of the bread bag. I squeeze the toothpaste from the middle. My favorite, and most effective: I miss the toilet when pissing.

She, rightfully, hates stepping in puddles of piss. Serves her right.

Oh, the woes of living with a partner for the first time. Been there, done that and I'm not going to be traveling down that road for a while. haha

I'm definitly a toothpaste middle squeezer and yes, the twist ties never go back on the bread once they've been undone.

Pissing on the seat... well... I've never had that problem. :) Perhaps in my next serious relationship, I'll work on it.

Good stuff, Mitch.
