I told my cousin Iām the easiest person in the world to get along with, and she laughed so hard she choked on her coffee.ļæ¼
I am not hard to please. Feed me, leave me alone for twenty minutes, let me pick the music in the car. That is the whole list. I do not need much.
But oh, the fuse. The fuse is short and the fuse is greased.
You chew with your mouth open. You touch the thermostat without asking. You say āwe should hang out soonā and then ghost for four months and show up wanting a favor. You take the last piece of something and do not even ask if anybody else wanted it. You park crooked on purpose. You text āk.ā Just the k. With the period.
My cousin wiped her eyes and said, āSo you are easy to please, as long as nobody is around you.ā And I sat there real quiet because she had a point and I did not appreciate it. I told her she just made the list.
That is the thing nobody warns you about. The same heart that will give you the last fry will also remember every little thing you did wrong in 2019. Both can be true. Both usually are.
