H and I had a massive row when he rolled in pathetically drunk and incapable last night at 3am (having been uncontactable etc - I was frantic). He has form, but it has been almost a year since the last episode like this after I issued an ultimatum after he got mugged having drunk himself insensible and passed out in an unfamiliar area.
He'd promised to help with a lot of stuff which needed doing by today so I was worried and furious.
Row ended up with me forcing him out of the front door (we're in flats). He passed out on the landing and woke me up at 6am having managed to get in (he couldn't work the door when he first got home). Pawing me and saying I love you baby.
Kicked him off and into DD's (empty, she was sharing with DD2) bed. Dragged him up in time to have a shower before work as he stunk of alcohol and was still stumbling/slurring etc.
He was aggressive and whiny. Packed him off to work and sorted the kids (he usually takes them to school).
He just called from work sounding pretty normal, no reference to last night, reminding me that school closes early today, just normal chat (we usually talk throughout the day).
I can well believe he doesn't remember the row, and might have thought he passed out on the stairs under his own steam, but he can't have genuinely forgotton this morning (I made it very clear I thought he was being incredibly disrespectful and pathetic), and he'll have all the text messages I sent him to refer to.
Is he pretending to have forgotton? Should I go along with it? The temptation to brush it under the carpet this close to xmas is strong but would send the wrong message I think.
