Anger Management

Week 37

Another day,another fight. Yesterday she got fired up at someone who cut in front of her in line while we were waiting to pay for stocking stuffers. Eventually a sensible soul gave her his spot so she'd let it lie and guided her to an open cashier. A normal human being would have taken this opportunity and buttoned it. Not my mother. My mother, friends, is a pitbull. Once she's got something in her jaw she doesn't let go until that thing is dead. She proceeded to call the woman out openly, then the woman's friend tried to justify it by saying they were shopping together, my mother basically called her a liar and then roped a baffled cash register lady into the whole thing. She didn't really get anything accomplished by all this but she says its the principle behind it that she's sticking up for. It's wrong to cut, period. It is stupid AND wrong to cut in front of a super pregnant lady. It is idiotic to do so when this lady is my mother.

Today, thanks to her anger issues, I will no longer be a member of Mommy and Me yoga when I am born. We attended prenatal yoga at Kai for exactly one month before she got into it with the check in girl. They argued over cancelled classes that were not made up for (which I agree with) but then that temper flared and what could have been a month of free yoga quickly turned into exile from the Kumbaya land when she threw the check in card in the girl's face declaring this to be, and I quote, "BULLSHIT".

Listen, I get it, she's irritable, hormones are doing their thing -but Boo Frapping Hoo, You're uncomfortable???? try crouching for nine months in an area the size of a balloon and tell me I didn't get the short end of THIS stick.
