It’s all stuff
My name is Paul and I’m a watch nerd.
Donna’s at her annual sewing guild retreat, partying with friends, free from the demands of kitchen, hearth, husband, and dogs.
I grew up around nasty bigots like Greg Abbott. They filled the pews of the Southern Baptist churches my mother dragged me to. They are the reason I’m an atheist today.

The difference I speak of is the level of noise in our house, which has gone from Fast & Furious in Dolby Surround Sound to distant birds chirping in trees on the far side of an alpine meadow.
How many armed homeowners, hearing strange noises late at night, have wound up killing or maiming their own children and spouses? I bet more than a few.
I can’t figure out the scam, but there must be money in it or they wouldn’t be doing it.
Well, it was my mail-order bride now, to keep and to care for.
