Other lives

When you don't know people well you make assumptions out of how they live. You think that because people have been married for over 30 years that they get along well and that things are great.

I have had occasion to slap myself upside the head the last couple of days. On Sunday I worked the gift shop while the boss's wife finished her last day in the Snack bar. She told me she would be taking the things that were hers; things that she had brought in. I didn't have a problem with that. Who would? If they were hers she has a right to take them. But it bothered me that I detected a note of bitchiness in her tone.

Another girl had covered the Snack bar on Monday so I could have a day off. When I went into work yesterday, I was speechless. The place was nearly bare. You would think we were closing it today instead of in a week or so.

I am amazed at how the human mind works. Here she is, the boss's wife. He runs the place and is responsible for everything. Apparently she is not suffering from any disease, has no health problems..the bottom line is that she wanted to work in the gift shop and he told her no. I believe it was because she disses the manager there all the time and they get along like oil and water. So, she got mad and quit. And took all her toys home.

How petty. How vindictive. Glad I'm not him.

Aw, Mel

couldn't you just keep your big fat mouth shut?! Noooo, you had to spit venomous hateful stuff directed at a people fighting for existence. God knows, I love Mel Gibson with the gorgeous blue eyes and a sense of humor that flashes across the screen to you. But, I hate a drunk. Worse, I hate a mean drunk.

Go to AAA. Leave the bottle alone. Apparently you can't handle it.
