H&D

A certain amount of Hate and Discontent in the household, at the moment.

My wife has been insistent that our daughter should participate in a youth group activity at our church. After much foot-dragging, she agreed that she would go to an event tonight. Preparing to leave, my wife mentioned that she should bring a warm jacket, as they were going to be doing caroling, possibly outside. The daughter announced that she does not do caroling -- and when they got there, the group was just preparing to leave to do just that -- so the daughter refused to stay.

She's in her room, sulking, and the wife is downstairs, simmering. As for me, I'm staying clear of the blast zone.
