In & Out



The husband accepted very part time work in the early autumn. He wanted to bring in some much needed cash flow to our lives. It was painful then to witness him miss the opening weekend at his own shop; he felt a heady mix of distress, despondency, doubt. Standing together at a bus stop, an unusual situation, The Husband attempted to articulate his attitude & this is what come out:

Stephen: "Really... how can it be that bad?"

The Husband: " I just want to get in & get out... give them what they want, get in there & really work & get out as fast as I can."

Stephen: "That is an apt description of your love making techniques."

The Husband: "This exchange will not be in your blog. Do you understand?"

The bus came, but I had forgotten my wallet so we had to go separate ways at that very moment. Before returning home, I took time to jot- "the old in & out" in my notebook.
