Fighting again, damnit.

Jun 13, 2005

Haven’t gotten so much as a single page to my name today. Why? Because Anita and Richard have argued themselves into one of those moments where it’s taken me all day to figure out a way for this not to be THE FIGHT. You know, the fight that completely breaks you up. The fight where you say things that can never be taken back, and the relationship never recovers. I don’t want that for Anita and Richard, not yet, not now. Shit. At lunch I finally came up with an idea. I don’t know if it will work, or not, but it’s all I’ve got to try. I’m delaying the moment of truth by blogging. I’ve done everything and anything to avoid this scene. But if I don’t at least get a few sentences, maybe a paragraph today, I’ll be more stuck tomorrow. Now that I’ve finally thought of an alternative to the fight, I need to get something on paper so tomorrow will be easier. Anything to get me moving again. If you’re a Richard fan, say a little prayer that Jean-Claude can maneuver the two of them around this fight. The issues that are raised will have to be addressed later, but the situation is too emotionally charged for an in depth discussion. So many real life fights could be avoided if you only cooled down before having the talk.
