You just get tired and then you start to find yourself going with the flow- which means that you don't fight as hard, or put as much effort as you should. I did it and had to stop for my own good. I got too damned depressed and that was not fair to me or my family.
Now, if I get into a fight it is my own choosing and is usually in the local political arena- we have many RINOs here and they make me angry. They are more liberal than the Dems at times.
I had to testify last week in another county in a custody case. The two attorneys involved were hilarious. They had the courtroom cracking up. Even the judge had his head in his hands and was shaking his head. The mom's attorney was over the top with her sarcasm, and the dad's attorney was a real @$$hole, trying to make a case where there wasn't one, but he was really entertaining in the process because some of the "evidence" he was trying to build his case on was so lame, as were some of his objections during testimony. It would have made a great comic skit.
