Well I tend to agree that most women have that in themselves (not: are like that). I know fights like this, actually had one about a week ago with my beloved. Usually there's PMS to blame, but sometimes there are other (often to me incomprehendable) reasons. My strategy usually is dropping that topic and waiting for the smoke to clear and come back to the issue at a later and hopefully better time.
I've seen this kind of behavior before, and I recognize it for what it is- I just don't understand it. Why even be talking about something you don't want to actually talk about? Why talk AROUND anything in the first place? What kind of incomprehensible reason could possibly be behind this? (I guess it doesn't matter if no one could understand it anyway!)
One thing though, I don't really agree with blaming poor behavior on hormones, PMS and so on (if it's not that, it's "the change.") I know you weren't blaming it always on that, but some people (of both sexes) do act like PMS is some Get Out Of Jail Free card and since this is the "bitch about life" thread, I will bitch about it ;) Acting like an asshat is acting like an asshat. Yeah, some things may make you more prone to acting like one on any given day, but carving a week out of every month to not have to control your inner asshattery because, "oh, my uterus!" isn't right, in my opinion. If the average man can avoid beating his wife when he's had a bad day at work, the average woman can restrain herself from mindfucking with her husband because she's got the cramps (unless it's consensual, ha). And if she truly can't restrain herself, there's medical treatment for that, it's in no way "normal" to be rendered an out of control psycho for the entirety of one's childbearing years.
Anyway. To everyone who voted "life is too short," I agree completely.

Ok so my Bitch for today is I have a "friend" that called and wanted to "Watch movies" (this is kind of an accepted code that there will be VERY little movie watching in this "relationship"
Well i was tired from a long day, but hey! I'm no idiot, so I get myself together and drive over.
...And she actually wanted to watch movies and just hang out.
So I go ahead and do that, no pressure, I can make up for it next time. I wake up this morning and I have a damned flat tire on my car.... just for some extra annoyance.
...I know, sounds trivial compared to REAL complaints, but I'm grumpy.

The tire on the other hand stands to be a bigger deal if I can't find somewhere open to fix it tomorrow, it's a pretty bad leak.

Over the past two days, I spent way more money than was intended at a local, three-day annual carnival. It does help support a local hospital which is fine but things were way more expensive than I thought they would be.
I remember attending the carnival three years back and winning a brand new HDTV from the raffle but this year the raffle was completely lame since there was only one prize which was a set of family-oriented bicycles. I did enter in the raffle to win a motorcycle in hopes of selling it if I win and I did win a couple of coupons from some spin contest. I almost won some contest firing an air machine gun but there was still some orange left on the target. Too bad cause I could have won an electric guitar and blew over $20 on that game.
Overall, the carnival was nice but I spent way too much money and the food didn't seem as good as last time.

My father was in a bike accident today. Another biker blew his red light and crashed into him. The biker had a full biker outfit and was probably going very fast: My dad and his bike rose in the air and fell back on the side he was hit. The other biker is fine but my dad has a broken clavicle. The doctor says he'll be in pain for about 3 weeks and since the break is near an extremity it might not heal and might require surgery.
