So my car key has come unglued several times in the last year. Each time I told my partner would fix it using his and his mother's FAVORITE glue JB Weld.

Well it would break again a month later.  I was blamed for BEING TOO HARD ON MY KEYS - which I believed.  Of course I am always wrong and bad.

Fast forward to this week when they broke again.  But I am separated now.  I went to the Home Depot and carefully looked at the glues and choose one.  Glued it set something heavy on top of it while drying.

It worked perfect.  I fixed it. It does not seem like it will break again.

It was his crappy glue all along not ME.

Remember that as you are being blamed for something....

Yeah toward the end I realized I was bad and wrong 100 percent of the time.  And while I knew I was not wrong zero percent of the time anything above 50 was statistically improbable.

Now I can laugh.  Go kick someone else.

Ain't that the truth.

Sunshine702 - feels pretty darn empowering to fix something once and for all that you have been accused of breaking! Bravo!

The truth will set you free if you believe it.
