Drama Queen
Okay, I’m going to admit it and probably for the first and last time in my life. I am a bit of a drama queen. Now I’m not talking in public or anything. I’m at my most dramatic during fights.
Today was a perfect example of such a needlessly dramatic display. Without going into all the details let’s just say that I yelled, stormed off, pouted, and eventually cried.
It was quite the production. And the thing is that I don’t intend to do it, it just sort of happens. Half way through I’m thinking to myself, “What are you doing. Stop doing what you are doing and just be sensible.” But I cannot persuade myself to listen to reason and so I continue with the dramatics and acting like a child until I’ve made such an ass of myself that there is really no where to go from there.
So I sat pouting and crying trying to come up with a reasonable thing to say when I went back to the scene of the fit throwing. Eventually we kissed and made up and the only thing I could say in my defense was, “I’m sorry.” Which sounds lame when you’ve thrown the sort of fit that I’d just thrown. It seems like much too little.
But Love forgave me my pitiful weakness and all was well. The man has un-ending patience.

That sounds awfully close to home for me…it might be more than being a “Drama Queen”. Have you spoken to your doctor about this?
