Newlyweds Quarrel
-I was cheerleader and he star quarterback.
Make of that what you will. You and hubby
laugh at everything anyway.
-Not this. Not him. He's a jock worshiper.
-Anyway we got married. Monster bash.
Then he was drafted into the pros.
That's a short story with an anti-O'Henry ending. Broke his leg in pre-season
and never could get back.
So he’s small college coach, now, and I work
for the dean. It’s okay. I like all the women there. Not usual with me.
But before all of that! Early matrimony proved
rocky altogether. And we had this one fight
I couldn't even describe. I mean everything
was on the table--and bleeding.
I told him if we were going to go on like that,
we should shoot each other. He left, hot!
When he came back--I thought because he remembered something especially
biting he forgot to...
-Oh oh!
-No! He dissolved in tears and begged forgiveness on his knees.
-And what did you conclude from...?
-They never really learn how to fight.
