Excuse me?? Your tea isn't gold you know.

What an absolutely insane weekend. Between rotten green peppers, getting sick, broken cigars, broken hearts, weird people and horrible customer service experiences I'm surprised I haven't gone completely insane.

A local grocery store had a whole set of rotten green peppers. Every single green pepper in their little display basket was growing some sort of grey fuzz around the stem and a horrible bruise that was rotten right through. The worst part was that each green pepper was arranged so the good side was facing up as if they were purposly hiding the fact that they were all bad!!

After walking out of that store I decided to go somewhere else. While I was running around in Sobey's I stopped to grab the green peppers for my stir fry after I found some ground beef, a lady looks at me and says,

"You're too young to look so angry."

Then she walked away. I had no idea what to say. I just stood there completely shocked at what this woman just said to me. With green peppers and meat in hand (that sounded dirty) I just watched her walk away, totally bewildered. I had absolutly no comment for her and all I could think of was that my kids were in the car getting cranky, I just found out one of my friend's had his heart shattered/smashed/demolished (not even getting into that), the store I just came from was disgusting and I was starting to get sick. Of course I looked angry, I WAS angry. I was angry at the gross store, angry at the price of ground beef, angry that I was getting sick and had a raging headache, angry that my kids were cranky and acting up, angry that my friend was hurting and now angry at this crazy lady with her strange comments. I scowled, raised an eyebrow and kept squishing green peppers, it was all I could do. I think Big Cranky is right in that every now and then we just have to puck someone in the head. On that note.....

Tim Horton's sucks. Not all of them, just the one in town by the old betting place. I sat in a drive-though for 15 minutes and no one moved. We turned the car around and being a good passenger, I went in to get our order. Besides, I had to pee. The bathroom was a mess, there was toilet paper and newspapers all over the floor plus someone PISSED all over the stall. It was just lovely. So, after using the men's bathroom which, for some unknown reason, was exponentially cleaner than the woman's, I went to order. I stood at the counter while one person slowly did the drive-through, one person watched her, another person was making sandwiches and chatting with some guy. I should've known something was up because the two men who were in line before me left as I got there with nothing but a lot of swearing. I stood there. I was obviously waiting to order since there was a big, green twenty dollar bill in my hand but the one just standing there walked away grumbling that her "shit was finished and going on break". The other ones just kept doing what they were doing. After ten minutes of standing there and excusing myself to break their conversation, I flung up my hands, said "fuck this!" as politely as possible and left. I got my tea somewhere else, somewhere that has much better service and much better tea -- ROBIN'S.

I won my eBay auction for a brand new copy of the "The Story of O'' and it's being shipped this week. I'm really excited to read it since everyone I've been talking to is saying it's a good book. Right now, I need a really good book. Movies aren't doing it for me anymore and I'm sorry, but Dan Brown is not that great of an author. His stories are good, his plots are good but the books read more like movie scripts than novels. Sorry all you Dan Brown fans but that's just how I feel.

Anyhooooo.....I think I'm going to go to bed. I have work in the morning and I still need to jump in the shower and wash the stink off myself.

Have a good night!!

PS: Does anyone have any good tips on mending a broken heart??
