Bad Days, Beat Downs, and Brother-in-Laws

I am normally a very peace-loving kind of person but last Friday I actually wanted to beat down another human being. I guess this is what happens when you make my baby cry. No, it's not even that, it's more that the guy was a complete jerk and I would probably have had the same reaction no matter who he had treated thus. A client at the tanning salon came in on Friday and berated her for failing to write down his appointment LAST SATURDAY. Yes, she made a mistake and yes, it should have been brought to her attention but to lamblast her mercilessly is a little much. The guy was actually throwing a temper tantrum. I hope he realizes that the cool quotient he obtained by purchasing a Lamborghini was completely negated when he threw a fit at the little tanning salon girl. To top it off, after humbling her completely, the Lamborghini-owning man actually accepted gas money from her and will probably get another tanning day at her expense. I'm sure of it as she will insist on it.

But the bad day continues; as she is hurrying home to the comfort and safety of those who love her, she made the mistake of tailgating a neighbor who takes her to task for it. That was the straw that broke the camel's back and she lost it. She locked herself in the bathroom and went on the crying jag of the century.

Kyle to the rescue. Just suffice it to say that he talked to the neighbor with great tact and everyone came away from the encounter feeling much better than they had before. McKenna was able to apologize for tailgating and the neighbor apologized for being mean. All's well that ends well and Adam Reeve (Lamborghini man) should thank his lucky stars that I didn't beat him down. Now all I have to do is repent for wanting to do that.

Hahahaha! That was a fun night once everyone had calmed down enough to laugh at the ridiculousness of these two guys.
Hmmm can't wait to see the pics from Kristas wedding. :)

I am so proud that you spelled ridiculousness correctly. You want me to email you those pics?

Haha! Guess what? TaraLee and I have the same background on our blogs. When I first looked at hers I was confused for a minute. I thought I was still looking at mine but there were pictures of other people on it....crazy, huh?
