Did you think I gave up on the Writing Excuses Self-Assignment? I thought about it, especially after looking at 10.4. This assignment really threw me for a loop. I was intimidated by this one.
For me, my petty actions stop at making faces, showing them my middle finger, or mummers of discontent. It lasts maybe a minute. Maybe 5 minutes. On occasion, I’ll come home and complain to my husband. Rarely have I acted on it. That is exactly what I did this past week.
