Five episodes in 9 years doesn't sound that bad. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's good and his tantrum the other night sounds pretty ridiculous -- but I know that I've had melt downs in front of my BF that were pretty embarrassing in hindsight and he's done the same to me. I just take it as part of life, but maybe my standards are too low, LOL.

I hope things are going better now. What bad timing on that battery! Nine years is really old!
