i can be a bitch.
i know. you are shocked right now, right? alas, it’s the truth. while the majority of the time i’m sweet like pumpkin pie, there are times where the mean ugly bee-otch needs to make an appearance. some might be kind and call it being feisty, or some might go as far as to give it that lovely little pms acronym label, but truth be told, since i got my mirena iud 2 years ago, i haven’t a clue where in the sam hell i am in my cycles, so one can never say for sure.
last night?
hoo boy the bitch was on the loose. it’s a wonder that my friends still want to be my friends today.
everything was just rubbing me the wrong way…
the way every person felt the need to argue with me when i said that i’ve never been hit on. why is this so hard for people to understand. i have never been hit on, at least not by my definition. deal with it. don’t try to convince me that i have.
the way every person felt the need to argue with me that no, i wouldn’t be fired for taking off too many days in October for Jewish holidays and other exciting adventures. yes, i know i’m not going to get fired. it still doesn’t mean that i enjoy taking off that many days, especially during crunch time. and it still doesn’t mean that even though i won’t get fired that i can go ahead and take a vacation with my friends.
the way the husband felt the need to argue with me about the nudey pics i take for him and email to his blackberry when he’s out with his friends. it’s a good way for him to never get sent them again.
the way every person felt the need to argue with me about politics. because NO, i do not think that Sarah Palin is more qualified than Barack Obama. and no, i do not think that just because she’s “hot” (which is itself up for discussion) that she would make a good VP. and no, i do not think that using the “please, you don’t think they have people who make decisions for them” is a good enough reason for it to be okay to elect someone to office. and no, i don’t think it was okay for Sarah Palin to flub her interview with Katie Couric so badly.
but…there were things, of course, that didn’t rub me the wrong way. When my regular old Dr. Jekyll pumpkin pie self is on the loose.
things like afternoons outside.
and taking a fairy to meet another fairy in person.
and taking said fairy for something else. something much more rite-of-passage-y.
no? how about now?
still no? check out her ears, will you??
oh yes we did!
(we will also not talk about the fact that this morning she only woke up with ONE earring in her ears and i had to search – in the nude – through her entire room for the earring and the backing – the earrings they used to PIERCE her ears..have you seen the ends of those suckers??? like NEEDLES, they are! – and then attempt to get it BACK into her ears. so, *sigh* there will be no Working Closet picture today because i had to trade in my make-up/getting dressed/drying hair time to make a little earring-ed girl happy. but don’t get me started on it. everyone had enough Mr. Hyde last night. heh)
