My manager threatened to smash my skull in

Today was a pretty regular day. When he put up the schedule for next week, I was angry. My hours were being cut, again. I was well aware the decision came down from ownership, but he wasn't around so I took it to my manager. He didn't want to talk about and just tried to absolve himself of it.
I **lashed** out after that. I can admit that. I handled it poorly. I tend to do that. He handled it just as bad. If not worse. We argued for about 40 seconds, then he got in my face and was trying to intimidate me or provoke me into hitting him. I pushed him off me and told him I quit.
I called my boss and told him I quit and why. Manager continues to run his mouth for the next half hour. Threatens to smash my skull in, push my teeth in - generally just acting like a dope head going through withdrawals. I'm not scared of him. He could probably beat me up, but I'm no pussy bitch and can handle myself. He called me every name in the book. He wanted me to throw the first punch badly. I didn't see the point in fighting him over it. I have a son. I have a life to handle.
Owner comes back. Convinces me to come in tomorrow so we can hash everything out. Sends my manager home. Thing is...I'm not sure I can work for this guy anymore. It's not the first time we've argued. We both have some anger problems. We've always worked it out like adults, though. This just hit me like a ton of bricks. I didn't see it coming. I find myself nervous about going in there tomorrow. He says he won't work there if I do, but I imagine it's a bluff to make me not come in. I don't care if he works there or not. The guy is just insane. He's attacked an ex-employee once before and threatened him in a similar manner. I'm not confident he won't just jump me or some shit. I will defend myself. I just don't really know how to feel about the whole thing.
I don't know why I wrote this or even what advice I'm looking for. I guess just some outside, unbiased input would be nice.
