Wednesday

Nabal- "Going to church with me Wednesday?"

Me- "Huh?"

Nabal- "Are you going to your church Wednesday?"

Nabal- "When do you have time off from your work?"

Me- "Not now, busy season."

Nabal- "We need to spend time together. Go to dinner, take some time for us..."

Me- "Why?"

Nabal- "Because I want to."

Me- "No thank you."

Nabal- "You're just mean."

A call from drunk Nabal, who decided to get drink instead of going to church:

Nabal- "Are you leaving?"
(he'd been standing there drinking with his buddies when I packed up and drove off)

Me- "I'm at the store."

Nabal- "You need to get back here!"
(very confrontational and harsh voice)

Me- "What?"

Nabal- "I want to give you a hug baby."
(very quiet voice)

He went on like this speaking harshly, then when I called him out changing his tone to cajoling. Some new game? Looking tough on his woman for his audience? Just drunk crazy? Don't know, don't care. Just a lot of double talk this week. Like he's trying subliminal suggestion...

Nabal fell had his elbow swollen and hit his head the same place he had that bad gash a few years ago when the cement block got dropped on his head. Again, drunks on a work site are dangerous!
