W irritated me last night. She was away on business and stayed on over the weekend to meet with friends. Flew in last night around 9:30p. I asked her to call when the plane landed so that I could go fetch her. When I reached the airport, a long snaking line of cars brought traffic to a standstill. It took me a good 30 min to get to the sidewalk at the departure area. She gets in the car and is angry that it took me so long. What? I don't control the traffic. Believe me I wish I could. Patience is not a virtue she possesses. I told her that the real problem was that she flies in so late. She should try to catch an earlier plane. Of course her immediate response is that she cannot because she wants to spend as much time as possible with her friends. What? She gets to see them every four months or so and flying an hour earlier eats her up? I was pissed. Suffered a sleepless night too. I get worked up when such things occur. She said she'd take the cab next time. I should let her do it. For the most part, she is great, but there are times she gets really bitchy.
