69. Actually Called The City

Ok, this is REALLY petty. My husband is insane about lamps and side tables matching and being symmetrical. Like annoying about it. So whenever we have an unrelated argument, even after we’ve made up, I slightly shift a table lamp askew, or I’ll tilt a picture frame.
For years he thought it was the city bus driving over a manhole cover. He even called the city about it. I considered telling him IF the city got involved with rerouting the manhole. They didn’t. PHEW!
Edit to let you know that this has been going on for 11 years now, and he still does not know. So if he reads this, ‘Hi honey, you’re not crazy. I love you!’
