from now on, i'll just stay home.
in an effort to continue the common thread of misanthropic revelations, i thought i should include this little tid-bit:
we were out of pain reliever. typically, this is one of the things we always have stocked in abundance; but, charlotte needed a specific brand, so i was sent off to the store. it took me 15 minutes to get there -long way to town from the boonies- 4 minutes to acquire my booty -it took longer than necessary because i stopped to decide whether or not to grab "angel heart" for $5.99- and i was on my way to the checkout. obviously, i was in line for the self-check. this is where the problem revealed itself:
it came in the form of the couple in front of me who were unable to count to twenty. see, this is the stated maximum number of items in the self-check lines. o.k. i get the fact that you are a selfish, inconsiderate narcissist. i can deal with this because i'm used to it, as many people fit this mold. but is it necessary to discuss every single item with each other before struggling to find the bar code and not picking up on the ease of swiping it...even after the 25th item. good grief! i need to be at work in 12 hours, do you think you can get your butt in gear?!
if you are too unintelligent to figure out something this simple, how on earth did you decipher the maze of roadways required to get to the store in the first place? even frank on my ipod couldn't completely placate my rising anger.
oh yeah. jake (one of jackson's friends at school) let me read a note his teacher sent home with him today. she was thanking him for being a great student and leader and for making the first week of 3rd grade easy for her and the class. i can only assume that something vaguely similar was sent home with each student. this is wonderful and encouraging for a kid except for the facts that the word "too" was used improperly and two words were misspelled. what in the heck?! at this point, i can't even comment on this kind of crap or i may start bleeding from my ears.
can't wait 'til tomorrow.
