Today is not off to the best start.
I just bitched out a very "pretty" couple when I went to pick up some lunch at the Tim Hortons next to work. It's a busy place so it has a long line that runs across the store and leads to both registers. I was next in line and there were another 3 or 4 people between me and the couple. The girl running the far register called for the next customer and the couple just left their place at the back of the line and went up. Normally I would just sigh and leave it at that, but I had already had another incident (we'll talk about that next) that made me crabby this morning. So I went up to them and asked if they were seriously just going to go in front of all the other people in line. I was probably a bit crankier than I had any right to be, but come on, how could you not know that you weren't next in line? So they stepped aside and I ordered. I could hear them muttering about "Can you believe that?" So I told them that they hadn't just gone in front of me, but had also jumped ahead of about 4 other people. "Oh, we thought you were together" Yeah right. Of course, right after I left I started to feel bad. Because it's what I do.
Earlier this morning I went to the drug store to pick up a prescription. My dog came along because he loves car rides and will gladly wait out in the car when I go in places. When I got back out to the car, about 20 minutes later, someone had left a note on my windshield telling me that they felt really sorry for my dog because I was such a terrible owner. It was not hot out. The car was also in the shade. It was not uncomfortablely hot when I got back in the car. Dog was perfectly happy. And yet the note made me feel really guilty and upset.
Later on today I'm going to my grandparents' 50th anniversary party. I'm not looking forward to it. That side of the family is super religious and holier than thou. I guess I can hang out with my immediate family, who managed to escape the madness, but I'm sure I'll have to bite my tongue to keep for freaking out if any sort of hot topics come up. If I disappear, it's because my head exploded.
But... there are good things coming up. I'll focus on those. Monday can not come fast enough...
Everyone should tell me something that has made them happy lately. For cheering up purposes.
Here's one of mine: Lavonne and I went to the arcade the other night. We won enough tickets to trade in for 11 pairs of stick on earrings and a pink plastic anklyosaurus. We're awesome that way.
That's all for now.
