YH: "go for it.... this is the last time... we will quit afterwards, I promise!!! "
ME: "yeah... but you know me. I'll feel kinda bad afterwards. It'll get really ugly at home, my wife will be yelling at me and she won't even know why"
YH: "hey..... dude....don't worry - Y"K coming up in a few days you'll be REALLY motivated! This is a perfect time! You'll go into shul, do some serious introspection afterwards ...... YOU'LL BE JUST FINE!!!!"
ME: "well i don't know... you make some good points... I am wondering are you really just tricking me?"
YH: "no way! You're my best bud!! I just want you to get rid of that tension your wife refuses you! I am your freind!!!"
etc etc.
This is the conversation i had this afternoon. Unfortuantely I got some serious home alone and quality google time.
So we have a v. fragile peace now.
If this isn't addiction i don't know what is!!!
