In the midst of this, I had been shoved on to my earlier train by an elderly man in a kind albeit aggressive form of chivalry. Not knowing whether to throw down or thank him, you can imagine that this was an emotionally draining journey.
I know I took pretty extreme measures to avoid an awkward situation that would probably only be so because I react like this. But the last time I bumped into someone I used to work with, she was serving me at TGI Fridays. After acting as if my companion was dining alone all evening, I discovered that I had been unfriended on Facebook by the time I got home. I'm not just thinking about myself folks, I'm behaving like this for the greater good! Seriously though, it's no wonder that people become reclusive!
I had dinner with my friend at the weekend who told me that she worries if she is in the bathroom for too long during the work day. She is paranoid that people will think she is doing a number 2 (which she usually is) so she has taken to coming back and loudly announcing that she had a spontaneous nose bleed. She even goes as far as to get her colleagues to check her clothes and nose for any residue in case she didn't clean up the blood properly.
I bet after that story that you are starting to understand the crazy behind this blog. It wasn't my fault!!! And I will probably put my daughter through the very same thing. Well I would have before the days of the Internet and self diagnosing. But I'm sure I will find other ways to make her a queen of drama.
