It was a close one

I was driving the HSKP truck to Human Resources so that a new hire could do their paper work and I saw him on the side of the road.
Chris Cobb.
I loath him. He knows it.
I briefly thought about swerving, but didn't.
Aren't you proud?

I remember a conversation that I had with Jason about a week ago, that went something like this.
J: Guess who Stephanie (new roommate) has bonded with.
T: Who?
J: Pres. Henry.
T: WHAT? Fine she can like him but that doesn't change how I feel.
J: Remember that (insanely annoying) story about the coal I told you? I like you hands the way they are.
T: I have improved leap and bounds on my "despise list" I don't wish... I don't disp... Well, I don't hate Chris Cobb anymore, I just strongly dislike him.
J: Terra, you really have to get over this.
T: (channeling ansestors before her) Why?
J: It's only hurting you to hold this grudge.
T: Only because I have controlled the urge to make their lives miserable. See? I have improved.
