I am beyond annoyed with some of the fellow humans that occupy space!!!
Let me tell you about my day. I was craving a roast beef poboy with extra gravy. So Carmen and I ran some errands and the headed to Sammy's Poboys for a lunch date. I parked my van in a parking spot with an empty space on both sides of me. I prefer extra space so I can easily get out of my car and open the sliding door to get Carmen out of her carseat without feeling squished, or having to be careful about dinging someone elses car when I open the door.
We head inside and I order my poboy with a tea and C wanted the baked mac n cheese. She didn't eat it though b/c it came loaded with black pepper. She doesnt like pepper b/c its "too hot". I wish the menu said it had pepper so I didn't waste $4 on a side of macaroni. Oh well my poboy was great, I ate the whole thing!
We head back to the car after lunch and there is a SUV parked about 6 inches from my side mirror. Seriously.... Who parks their car that close to someone else? There was an older man sitting in the passenger seat, no body in the drivers seat. I thought okay someone is in the car, the car is on and running. He can just move it to allow room for me to get into my car. No biggie, right?
I look at him, look at my 8month preggo belly and he shrugs his shoulders and looks away. I wait a minute to see if he will look back and offer to move the car so I can get in my car. Nope he keeps looking in the other direction avoiding me. Mind you its like 100 degrees outside at noon!!!
I was seriously ready to open my car door and slam it into the side of their pretty white SUV. How rude!! I quickly dismissed that idea. I am not that ballsy!!
At this point Carmen is already buckled in the carseat (I put her in from the passenger side). The heat index outside is about 114 degrees so I can not leave her sitting there for long. I am still hoping Mr. Grumpy Old Man will stop being a coward and look at me and offer to move his car. No, he just sat there pretending like I didnt exist and wouldnt even look in my direction.
So I had no choice except to get in my car from the passenger side and climb across the to drivers seat with my huge 36week baby bump. That was such a fun experience... NOT! Especially when Carmen asks, "Mommy, why are you getting in the car from that side"?
I was so mad when I drove off!! I had to bite my tounge so I wouldnt go off on that man.
Ugh! I can't believe he sat there and ignored you like that! Hope your day goes better.
ReplyDeleteI would have had to of said something; Knock on the window to at least let him know that you could not get in your van. Then, if he still did nothing he knows he is a jerk.
ReplyDeleteWell, all I can say is Karma is not so nice to those who are not so nice to others. :)
