Why oh why?

You’ve got to be effing kidding me. Seriously.

Why do people continue to open their mouth and insert their foot? In a big way? And this time, in regards to me?

I went to the nail salon today for a much needed pedicure. I haven’t had one since before the baby was born. I didn’t schedule an appointment as this was a last minute stop. My normal girl wasn’t there today, so I got someone else who obviously doesn’t know me.

I sit down in the chair, dip my feet in the water.

The girl turns to me and the first question out of her mouth is:

WHEN ARE YOU DUE?

Seriously. I wanted to bitch slap her right then and there. Instead, I composed myself and spat out:

I’M NOT. I HAD A BABY FOUR MONTHS AGO.

Then, then, THEN, she added insult to injury and says:

OH, YOU TRYING TO LOSE THE BABY WEIGHT, HUH?

I’m telling, you took every ounce of reservation in me not to haul off and smack her. I wanted to drag her outside and kick her skinny booty. I didn’t, but I wanted to. I mumbled something and then thankfully, my cell phone rang and it was Christy.

How is it that someone who doesn’t even know you can put a damper on your day? Why are people so stupid with their words? Why? Why? WHYYYYYYY?
