It's time for my weekly therapy! Thank goodness for Thursdays or I just might implode from the activities of self-absorbed stupid people. Make sure to click on over to Kmama's at The Daily Dribbles and link up your own Thank You post!
To the 18 wheeler who felt it necessary to block my exit out of my street and force me to have to turn around and exit my neighborhood another way. Thank you very much.
To the construction guy who thought it was OK to stop, park, and get out of his truck in the middle of the road and walk away as if the cars behind him meant nothing. Thank you very much.
To the lady in Walmart who was in such a hurry that she just had to cut in front of me and make me wait while she tried to squeeze her cart through an area where it just didn't fit. And then proceed to look surprised by the stink eye I gave her. Thank you very much.
To the old lady in Walmart who turned the corner into my aisle so slowly that I had to stand and wait for her to get out of the way but she was to enamored with Nolan sitting in the back of the cart reading a cereal box that all she could do was stare. And then proceed to also look surprised by the stink eye I gave her. Thank you very much. (I am normally much more patient with elderly people, but she was the straw that broke the camel's back on this particular day. All of my gripes in this post happened within a 30 minute time span.)

21 Validations To Make Me Feel Worthy:
That was 30 minutes of frustration for sure! LOL
It is just WRONG to be exposed to so many idiots in such a short amount of time!
Stink eye is my favorite method of letting strangers know how I feel!
Moral of the story: Boycott Walmart. Trust me on this one. It is magnet for pariahs in the form of oxygen tank toting, obese and wheel chair bound patrons and their daughters who don't speak English and can't see their 6 children riding the bikes in the sports section up your leg even though you are all in the same aisle stuck behind that other woman.
Oh man!! That sounds like quite the day!
I have such anger for road construction workers. The county guys are the worst!! They won't post any notice and then all of a sudden, a road/lane is closed down and traffic is a total nightmare!
Thanks for linking up!
I might just have to start using your saying "stink eye". LOL. Sorry you had to give so many this week.
When is another Battle of the Blogs? Don't keep us all waiting....
I make a point to give everyone the stink eye at Wal-Mart, even if they haven't done anything to tick me off. I guess it's just the mood that place puts me in. :)
I love these! Your Thank You Very Much posts are always my favorite!
They have been doing construction on my road for the past week and it is getting on my nerves so bad! They just park and block the road like noone else has anywhere to go! I think I need a lesson on how to perfect my stink eye...I have a feeling you may be the master!
I don't know if some people don't think, like the truck driver or they just don't give a flying flip!
Do not get me started on the road construction. Last week Kam's 12 month check was scheduled and we were stopped in road construction for 30 minutes before I finally turned around and had to take a completely different way into town. Luckily we were able to get another appointment time, but apparently I was the 4th person who had called to re-schedule due to the dang construction. That's just wrong.
I think I must see a picture of this "stink-eye" you speak of :)
I would have been pissed if all that happened with 30 minutes of each other.
It is just WRONG to be exposed to so many idiots in such a short amount of time!
Work from home India
If I want to guarantee that I'll end my day on a really bad note, I stop at Walmart on my way home. There's a post at my place on those people in the go-go granny carts...despise them! Sorry your day sucked. Think about what Scarlett said - "Tomorrow is another day"!
All within a 30 minute span? I'd lose it.
Ha! Just being in Walmart make's me impatient!
I get stuck by our garbage truck all the time in my neighborhood. i hate when that happens. People are always slowing me down too.
I love when they stop in mid-isle and you wait because it can't possibly take them more then a second to get what the need and get back to their cart. Then when they finally do return to their cart they are all huffy-puffy with you because you’re irritated?!
Can we just say...way annoying week!
I have those kinds of days where everything annoys me, especially things that wouldn't bother me the day before or the day after.
