1. Cheesy marriage therapists are right when they say "communicate," "tell him/her how that makes you feel," and when all else fails "give head." Ok that last one wasn't on the list.
2. Our mothers were on to something when they told us to never go to bed angry--or hold on to anger that's been festering since that horrible trip with his family over Christmas.
3. Big, ugly, screaming matches followed by crazy make-up sex are flights of cinematic fancy. Mean fights are exhausting and accomplish little. Now I just need to find a movie with a dramatic-yet-civilized marital fight scene.
4. Mornings bring clarity. (See also: a great time to act like nothing happened and sheepishly hug your spouse in apology for calling his mother a ****).
5. It's always a good idea to be on speaking terms with your spouse on Sunday morning, as there is nothing good to watch on TV.
For some reason, I thought today was a good day to bake bread for the first time. Before you roll your eyes at the idea of me now posting recipes, rest assured I won't. I'm no chef, but I do have good taste and can easily steer you to my favorite chef on the Web. For all you food pretenders out there? Check out East Village Kitchen, bow your head in embarrassment, and don't you ever post another cupcake recipe again.
Covered in flour,
June
