How to Apologize.

February 18, 2007

How I know I am PMS-ing is when I snap at the husband from out of the blue, for the flimsiest of reasons.  I would be totally fine the day before, or even moments before, and I suddenly turn into this monster who magnifies everything — words, gestures, a sigh, silence.  Feeling aggrieved, I would lash out, my words descending like an unexpected slap across the face.

It is not good, not good at all.  

My apology would come later in the day, and in spurts:  asking him if he's mad at me while he is preparing to vacuum, cooking him his favorite pina-uga chicken adobo, cleaning all the bathrooms, and doing the laundry.  Not very articulate, hence not quite well received.  So we spent the entire day in silence and said tepid goodbyes as he set off to work last night.  

So today, I made sure to say it:  "I'm sorry.  I apologize."  And just like that, we were beaming like little kids again, sharing a walk in this beautiful spring-like weather (in February!  How lucky can we get?) and talking about the sorry state of politics in the Philippines (at this, we stopped beaming and started tsk-tsk-ing and shaking our heads).

may gani motuo akong bana ug PMS, mai. at least he doesn’t give me a hard time about it (well, this last episode dugay ko gitinggan, hehe). pero all’s well once i do realize that he doesn’t deserve the stinging words and promptly say sorry.

that’s true sis no. I have always believed that women are special creatures. Imagine we are the only being that has that and the men in our lives have to understand because its a biological thing. Pwede magminaldita ana nga time. Well I suppose they should understand because its not easy feeling all the mess during our period. Unless they want to try one time switching roles. I wonder how crazy they would look like. Di ko ka-imagine. As for us women, we can handle anything. hehehe. Girl power!!!

hey C! is it me or was there a movie made about a husband and wife switching gender roles? that was funny. but i don’t think it’d be funny in real life. although all of us women would be amused, the men would turn homicidal. LOL.

yes, we women are stronger than we think. cheers! :-)
