The characters and actions are well described and believable (I would hope they are, as you would have us believe that they are you and your wife.) This story could probably use more focus on what type of story it wants to be, however- is it horror, is it a comedy, is it drama, suspense? I think, in this short of a story, trying to hit more than one leaves it in the mushy middle, jack of all trades, master of none. I would love to see you try your hand at farce, or relationship-based humor- I think that there's a truly funny story lurking around in your head somewhere.

Like the snake eating itself, fascinating and déjà vu all over again. How meta meta. Like the snake eating itself, fascinating and déjà vu all over again.
