I Can Smell the Anger

It turns out I have special powers.

At Mother's Day/brother's birthday brunch this morning, I picked up on a sentence from my dad and immediately stiffened and got quiet. My brother said I was projecting or over-reacting and even called me passive aggressive, but within a moment, my dad was beginning the exact tired I had expected.

I can sense when he's about to be an ass moments before anyone else. I know before it happens when to disappear and/or have a glass of wine.

Not exactly a marketable skill, but great for self-protection.
