The Return of the Frick

 Last week, I got asked by the stomper if I could help their group today.  That group?  It involves Frick and Frack.  I really dreaded being asked that question but I agreed to a half day.  I received a message from Frick that made me ask a couple of questions.  There was a lot of confusion for me and in response, I got a snotty response that someone else in their group needed help.  I got a "Just so you know, we don't need your help."  I will relay that message to someone when the time is right. I know things can get lost in the cyber world but I knew her in the real world. I knew what she meant.  F off loser. If there was anyone who was shown a ton of grace, it was Frick.  I tried. I really tried. I thought maybe the three of us were better when both their dads passed and I went through cancer in the same year.  There were things that bothered me that Frick did that made me question if this is someone who could ever be a friend. I...

So Much for a Treat Myself Day

 The nail place was nice but I don't think I'll be back.  I keep looking to see if I have a bruise on my back.  No.  Nobody beat me.  Feels like it. It was the chair that I sat in when I got my pedicure.  It was a massage chair and I thought it was really nice working on my back but when I woke up this morning, I felt like I got punched in the back.  I don't know if that was a great thing. I think I pissed off the guy at the front desk for texting him about a receipt.  I explained I needed it so I could get reimbursed. I checked my spam mail and finally I said could you please email it to me and he did.  He made me feel like a cheap ass.  Maybe I am a cheap ass.  I don't know. The place seemed cramped.  It was kind of unfriendly except for the woman sitting next to me. I liked talking to her.  It just didn't feel like a great fit.  Do I regret doing something nice for myself?  No.  This just maybe wasn't the...

What a Wild Night

 So David Crowley won?  Wow.  Wow.  Wow.  Well.  He's got my support and my vote.  I don't know if I have the enthusiasm for him though after seeing the video state representative Chris Larson posted about what Crowley has done for Milwaukee.  I think well, we'll get a new county executive when he wins.  I'm saying he'll win because I believe in the power of positive thinking in this situation.  I can't afford Temu Trump.  On the flip side, I'm disappointed at how things went in the last month for this election. I get it.  I wasn't riding the Hong train like others but I thought well I have no problem voting for her.  I hate that people like Bill Maher and those jackasses from Pod Save America made fun of her for the old tweets.  You don't read Truth Social, boys?  Arrogant pricks.  I worried she would be torn apart like women can be for admitting she was treated for a bipolar disorder. I say again.  Lo...

Primary Anxiety Day

I guess I can't feel too bad about who wins because I didn't vote for anyone in the primary.  My person dropped out.  I'm nervous about the candidates who will win. I was thinking maybe David Crowley was the better person until I watched a video of some of the things he's done.  I was worried about Francesca Hong and some of the backlash she's received from her old tweets.  Look at the toddler in office on his platform.  Are we really going to nitpick something from 7 years ago?  I feel sick from the whole primary mess.  Just win in November.  I don't want to move to Michigan. I'm finally going for my first pedicure in 4 years.  I think I liked the fact that I could make the appointment online.  I hated calling the old place since the owner had his son answering the phone.  He messed up a couple of times when I made appointments.  Nice owner.  It's just things got complicated.  If this is a nice salon I can come back ...

The Return of the Anxiety Queen

Nobody knew I wasn't writing last week.  It's my announcement to me that I've returned. Last week was just a weird mix of emotions.  I think writing is good for me but there's also moments where I should step away and not think so much.  Or dwell.  Or whatever.  I had some postings where I'm like OMG I sound like such a Debbie Downer. That's life.  It's just up and down and all around.  I just needed my mind to have a break.  I ended my work week freaking out and I'm still kind of worried about something.  I think the person who makes my eye twitch missed something but I may not have been the reason.  It was showing up on their calendar but when I talked to the person, it had the event in my name and I think did I do something?  WTF?  I wanted to cry.  I had a mini meltdown. Making mistakes is going to happen.  It's how my mistakes have been handled by others.  It's the fear of someone else's reaction and I haven...

Sunday Funday at Walmart

 It was more like chaotic and get me the bleep out of here Walmart today.   We got our first delivery.  It missed one of the items and we got a refund.  They didn't have a few other things but so be it.  I realized that I had a different Walmart selected that is known for empty shelves.  My mistake.  First time user.  Won't do that again.  I liked the idea of delivery though. I hated that I wound up at Walmart on Miller Parkway to find the things that we were missing. I didn't have to do it.  My mom was upset and me being the people pleaser thought, well, I can run to the store.  She caught me in the hall and told me I didn't need to do it.  I said it's ok.  Getting out of the house is never a bad thing for me, unless it's Wal-Mart on Miller Parkway. It's not the worst store in the world, but it seems like there's a whole different type of crazy that comes out after noon at that store.  I came across a woman curs...

Not Having it Today

No dancing in the rain today.  This is solid messy rain.  I figured I can at least get a few errands done this morning and try again tomorrow.  I did the usual.  Picked up litter for the queen.  Got a few basics that we needed. I thought I'd stop and get a sheet of postcard stamps at the West Milwaukee post office.  Sometimes they have them.  Sometimes they don't.  I thought if they don't, I'll get a book of stamps since I have letters to write.  It didn't matter.  I made the mistake of stepping towards one window and the woman put her hand up and motioned to the sign.  It said wait to be called.  I apologized and stepped back.  I wasn't paying attention.  My mistake. I stepped back for a moment and walked out.  I could see both clerks looking at me.  I didn't do an angry walk.  I just left.  Why?  I just didn't feel like it today.  I don't think I'm an inconsiderate person. I admit my mi...
