I could think of think of so much more. Like the time we ran out of gas in Arby's parking lot or caught a flat on the side of the interstate.

So, much more that doubly outnumbered the petty arguments.
But...
It wasn't enough.

I tell myself to get over it.
It's the past.
It means nothing now.
But, I can't.
It's all I think about.
