Orange Juice…

Why is it that the stupidest things can cause the biggest arguments?

One night, Aya was sitting down to eat a late dinner after putting JT down to bed and I was pouring a glass of orange juice. Aya was sitting down at the table next to the counter, about 1 foot away from the counter. As I reach for the cup, I knocked it down, towards Aya and the cup falls straight down. When the cup lands the juice erupt’s like a volcano with juice shooting towards the ceiling, the floor, the wall…and Aya.


Aya then slams down her pizza. Glares at me like I did it on purpose and then storms off. You would think she was trying to get nominated for an Oscar award or something.

I clean up the mess, Aya showers and comes back downstairs.

Aya then asks, “What happened to her pizza?”

I replied, “I didn’t know if you were done. You just stormed off, so I cleaned up everything and put everything away.

Aya answered, “I was literally soaked and had orange juice dripping down my head.”

I answered back, “Uh-huh…sure dripping…from a 6oz glass that landed on the floor…and not on your head. Last time I checked, you had two arms and two legs. If you are still hungry you can reheat your own food.”

Aya was mad because I spilled the orange juice and didn’t say, ‘sorry’. I was mad because it was an accident and I don’t feel like I should say, ‘sorry’. In addition, I thought I said sorry when it happened. I just don’t see the big deal in saying ‘sorry’ for something so trivial.

After 2 days, all was forgotten and forgiven…all that for spilled juice.

hahahaha... man, i thought it was going to be the whole 'pulp' incident again!!! too bad u didn't get that on camera.

but, you should have said sorry. it may have been an accident but weren't you 'sorry' it happened? besides, i can just see how mad you would have been had the tables been reversed! ESPECIALLY if aya didn't say she was sorry!!

ps. i still don't see the fire plane thing working!! hahahahaha

yes, i was sorry it happened because now i didn't have any juice to drink.

i don't care if aya says sorry or not. i hear it all the time so it is like calling wolf.

fire planes would totally work. you guys just aren't open to new ideas. =)
