domestic abuse
conversations at work
N: I'm going to try to work on all this at home.
ESC: don't let your cat gouge you again *points to very deep scratch on her wrist*
N: ooooooh...he won't do that again. He just didn't want me to go to work.
ESC: you know, you always sound like a victim of domestic abuse when you defend your cats like that. Like "ohhh, I know my husband hit me, but it was my fault for forgetting his coffee"
N: it's not like that! it's a cat!
ESC: if my dog bit me for trying to leave for work, I'd kick her across the room! dogs don't get away with that shit.
N: dog bites are worse than cat scratches. this isn't so bad.
ESC: yeah, defending that cat again.
N: IT'S JUST A CAT! A VERY STUPID ONE, TOO!
ESC: whatever. enabler.
