Scar Tissue

 What is it about my wife?  For 49 1/2 years I was a selfish asshole.  Now, when I have changed over night she doesn't properly celebrate my transformation!  Sure, it has only been 2 days and I have had a few slipups...but still.  It's like I am the same person I was to her - toilet seat up, drinking the last beer, not listening to something she said, ignoring her while I am writing really important stuff, etc.

I think she has some emotional scar tissue to deal with.  You know what I say?  What I always say:

SNAP OUT OF IT!

I am going to give this whole transformation thing another 24 hours...or maybe 12...
