Well, I suppose it should never be a surprise. She often manages, after drinking a while (loosening her inhibitions??), and once I'm thoroughly tired and ready to head to bed (at a weak point of energy) -- to "want to talk".
Exactly the case last night. After a calm day, again civil to friendly... not real cordial, but friendly....
We happened to buy a few groceries, including, to my regret now, the makings for Mojitos and for Black Russians. I had a couple early in the evening. Got too mellow and made a tactless remark about it making me a little too mellow and that the feeling was "making me want to ask for a blowjob". It wasn't a request or a demand. Just an unguarded remark. She asked who was going to do that? (which I took as a tease, not offense). Apparently, though, it was offensive as the night went on... Because that was one of the things she busted my chops for.
But, before that, it was just more of the usual. 11p, start to leave the living room. "So, you didn't really tell me much after I asked if you'd talked to your mother."
That, of course, just led to a series of conflicted interactions, the details of which I don't retain by choice. One, though, got into financial division, again... And again, I told her I wouldn't have that conversation at late night after alcohol was involved.
In fact, I got after her that I did not appreciate yet again a demand to talk occurring after too many drinks, late at night.... "So, you're saying I'm drunk." No, just plenty to drink. "What about what YOU'VE had to drink?" "I quit 3 hours ago. Haven't had anything but nonalcoholic stuff since 8:00 or so".
I kept trying to disengage, keep from getting too angry for my part. I didn't get too worked up or angry, but she would NOT let me leave (I give her too much power in that) until midnight. A FULL HOUR of unnecessary conflict.... unproductive. Probably destructive.
Typical, though.
