Meandering anecdotes and an occasional incisive comment, courtesy of an overeducated, feminist former-professional, who is continually outsmarted by her overly-gifted children and genius spouse and who seeks refuge in books, cocktails, and the occasional Xanax.

fear her
At the breakfast table this morning, Lola announced, "I am God! Watch out for me!" and chuckled demoniacally.
"What??" was my clever, witty response.
Lola gave a double take and looked at me and then said in a false voice, "Just kidding."
I am reminded of a line from Night Court where two people were arguing because one of them claimed to be God. The other asserted, "He can't be God." A third person asked the complainant "Why not?" To which the complainant fired back, "Because I am!" Perhaps you could have applied this little use case of petty blasphemy to your situation?
