A coherent word of caution to figures of authority.
(( The handwriting on this entry is especially sloppy. ))
When the law is your wife and crime is your mistress, it doesn't matter what kind of storybook marriage you've got. One day, word will get back to your blushing bride, and the next thing you know you're going to be sprinting out the door dodging plates and pursued by screeches that would make a banshee's ears ring.
So you scramble to salvage your marriage, you quit your bad habits, you try to leave your mistress, but she won't hear a word of it. Even if you manage to smooth-talk your way back into the house, she doesn't believe a word you say from that point on. You know every time you go to sleep, she seriously considers holding that pillow over your face.
And your mistress has started lurking outside your windows.
One of these women is going to be the death of you, the only question is which and when.
And that is precisely why I don't bother with them to begin with.
