The Smoking Nazi Polyester Princess

I'm a little on edge lately. What with the husband's ex being heinous, the working 60+ hours a week, financial strains, planning the shower for my sister's impending wedding, the job search, dealing with troubled youth who just happen to ooze disrespect and animosity, and my customer's dog taking a big smelly dump in the kitchen while I was cleaning this morning; my stress and anxiety levels are high.

So...today when 2x4 and I were arriving from separate locations in order to have a meeting with a financial advisor and I parked in the HUGE and EMPTY Wendy's parking lot nearby, I became somewhat enraged when the polyester garbed smoking Wendy's employee told me that I could not park there or she would have me towed. I yelled at her a little bit. Nowhere NEAR as much as she deserved and moved my car to the next door lot. The ugly minimum wage making biotch apparently needed to have some authority over someone today and pick the woman in the 11 year old rusty cheap model Toyota.

Seriously, it took me a good 2 hours to calm down and I'm still plotting my revenge which will likely involve multiple opened ketchup packets being smeared in hard to reach places throughout the restaurant while I'm parked in their lot.

I'm okay with being petty and small on this occasion. I'm tired of taking the high road. The high road blows. All the hip and happy people are on the low road. I'm taking that route this time.

Hope you are feeling better....you should have had enough time to ketchup the joint by now, so I am hopeful ;)

I have had those days. I actually gave a parking control office the finger the other day as he drove off leaving a ticket tucked into my windhshield because I was 3 minutes overdue. He's lucky (or I am) that he was in his car already or it could have gotten ugly.

Hope you're feeling better. I loved your post on step-parenting. That stuff scares the crap out of me. Could have something to do with why I am still single. So much simpler this way.

SBS-As it turns out it was more of an inconvenience to go back and mess up the place. Plus, there's no guarantee that the biotch would have been affected at all. Most of it was circumstance, she caught me on a really bad day. On another day I probably would have been witty and insulted her intelligence instead of flipping her off.

MEL!!! How the hell are you?! I've missed you. I hope you're doing well. Where did all those posts come from? They kind of popped out of nowhere. Yeah, the step-parenting game has taken on a whole new twist what with 2x4's ex-wife making the Wendy's lady look cultured. We're hanging in though. Glad you're back!

"The high road blows. All the hip and happy people are on the low road." HA! I will have to shamelessly plagarize this very soon. :)
