Fly on the wall

Mrs W.: *crying*

Mr. W.: I'm sorry.

Mrs. W.: *sniffing*

Mr. W.: I'm so, so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you.

Mrs. W.: *sniff**sniff* I know, but you can be such a stupid man sometimes.

Mr. W.: I know. I'm sorry.

To be completely fair to Mr. W. This was a case of minor dumb man syndrome combined with minor post partum hormonal fluctuation. You know those medications that warn not to take with alcohol because combined they can be fatal? There should be a warning not to combine dumb man syndrome with postpartum hormones.

At least he did know the correct response (groveling).

Poor thing. And I agree about mixing of the two! A post partum woman is nothing to mess with!
