And then karma stepped in and taught me a lesson

In the middle of the workday, I got a voicemail from the Pretend Husband going on and on (and on) about what a bad day he was having. Everything was going wrong, he had driven somewhere, then somewhere else, then had to go all the way back to the first place for some reason. Then his office called and something else had gone wrong. Blah, blah, blah.

So when he called a little while later and started talking (again!) about what a bad day he was having, I interrupted him and said, "You already told me in your message."

He responded, "Yeah, but since then someone rear ended our car."

Oh.

(Not to worry. There was no damage and no one was hurt. But still, it taught me a little lesson about not being so quick to tune out the PH).
