Alright. First setback. My wife takes a polite phone call from work as an opportunity to berate me for being an emotionally unsupportive husband and having an emotionally unfulfilling relationship with my son. Does this help? No.
What is it when people only seem to see the worst. The phone call was meant to show her I wanted to hear how her day was going. Sometimes I wonder if it my relationship with her that makes me want to drink. I think I'll end up going to bed early tonight just to avoid the inevitable confrontation.
