So Sweet and So Cold
Just to let you know,
I’ll be as accommodating
as possible during
the process. But I will
refuse people moving
my things. I don't know
how to put this but,
as super-polite as I am
in these situations,
I have been known
to flip to super-aggressive.
I’m working through this.
I just wanted to give you
the heads up that if
I sense resistance and
people aren't listening
to me—well, in those
moments I have no problem
going after them
with a hammer (even
in front of my son).
