You know I love you but do you think I can just force myself to resolve a major identity crisis on the spot? Clearly, my problem is that I married and became a mother while I was still in late adolescence and I have no clue who I am as an adult woman in relationship to a man outside of that context or the context of my work since as my 2bx put it himself, he had no desire to play the stereotypical male role in our relationship.
I have decided that one of your animals is definitely the terrier. Which you should take as a great compliment since it means that you have the power to investigate deep dark holes and sniff out rats and take them down with your pointy teeth. Therefore, you are invaluable as a friend. And, yes, I am avoiding your question for the moment but I'll keep thinking about it as I send my customers e-mails full of typos and haphazardly fold the laundry.
