A Little Rebellion at Home

Today I slipped up and decided to skip doing the dishes after dinner. My partner had explicitly asked me to do them right away, knowing they would probably stack overnight otherwise. But something in me just rebelled a bit. It felt... liberating? Childish? Playing pretend that I was back in my twenties again with all the freedom of youth but none of the responsibilities. I'm not sure if it's tied to any deeper desire for playful discipline or if it’s just a quick thrill of being a little naughty and getting away with it. Whatever it is, I know better than to make a habit out of it.
