Perfectly Horrible Mistakes

Michelle and I kid a lot. We have that kind of "I'm joking but I'm not" way of saying things to each other that makes it easy to say the real things. If I can call her a bitch and she can say I'm a fat asshole, and we can still smile at each other, the thing that needs to be said is easier to get out.
But earlier, we just "jokingly" broke-up - like in a mock-anger way. Then I thought about it and got sad and thoughtful. I'm going to hug her and be sweet a lot for a while. OK, honey?
