LOL! And knowing Wayne, he'd wear it proudly!

You can say that again. That was difficult to read. And these lines -
Laura took a tentative step, fear visible in her eyes.
..........
“You ain’t gonna arrest me?”
- made me very sad for Laura. She's not only jealous of Ellery, she's intimidated by his power and authority, too. As irrational as her behavior may be, she honestly feels that everyone and everything is conspiring against her. And now she is sitting in her truck, late at night, hours from home, after having embarrassed herself in front of her ex-husband and his man.
Oh my, Louise. You do know how to end a chapter.
Thanks,
Marie

Louise and I (and a few others) watched BBM again in a simulcast yesterday. It was the first time I had seen the movie all the way through in a long time. I was struck again how bad I feel for Alma. She doesn't understand what is going on and has no context for understanding. Laura is very much in the same situation. It is so hard and sad for them.

I am going to heat myself up some Chinese leftovers and then maybe be able to dive back into the difficult and complex situation of 'Women who Marry Gay Men'

You're doing an excellent job Louise, painful as it may be. No way out but through, right? God, I'd like to give Laura a hug right now *sigh* Colson should get himself a big dose of empathy, he could use it.
“You were sneakin around on me, Colson! It wasn’t like I was dreamin it. With that man!”
“That’s the only way a man can do it when he’s queer. It ain’t somethin ya can do in the open.”
Well, Colson, you're right about that, but that's not what Laura wants to hear. :-\ Colson will need to deal with the guilt he's still feeling over how he treated Laura (and to some extent) his girls. Because he is feeling guilty of course although he's trying to conceal it by by being mad at her.
Poor Laura. Her panic is palpalbe, her life is falling apart, again... And all she did was love a man. :(
