Tonight, when I came home from work, exhausted and a little irritated, I discovered that the cat had broken my favorite vase. Since you're on maternity leave because you're close to delivery and were home when it happened, I'm taking my anger out on you. I throw my purse on the counter, raising my voice.

"What the fuck is this? Didn't you do anything to stop it from falling?? It was a vase I cared about!"
