The Week of Irritation
Last week was nothing if not irritating. There wasn’t anything special going on, if at all. But I felt rushed and pushed.
So part of it was I went to the dentist and they did the whole shebang of the x-rays, teeth cleaning, flossing, scraping, swishing, spitting. And then I had to wait for the doctor to come and take a five second look inside my mouth and tell me it looks great and I could go. Fifteen minutes for the cleaning and fifteen minutes waiting for the all mighty doctor (who technically isn’t a real doctor, he’s a dds). When I finally get out to pay the bill, the receptionist runs my card and is praising me for keeping up with my oral health since I don’t have insurance and paying everything out of pocket. She goes on and on and thanks me for paying and hands me my slip and then tells me that had a paid in cash it would have been 5% off. I was torqued! It totally craped on my whole day.
I had to take two of my friends out (two different days of the week) because they’ve been having horrible times in work and acquaintances. It wasn’t going out that was irritating, it was the fact that these two very strong women were having such an awful time they needed to get out and leave it all behind for a bit. We had fun, but it was stressful just listening to the horrific tolls thrown on them. I was glad to spend the time with my girls, but not the reasons.
Last, but most defiantly not least, I don’t know what the heck was going on last week but for some reason not a single frikin’ person could use their turn signal. I know I shouldn’t let this get to me so bad, but I can’t help it. TURN SIGNALS ARE THERE FOR A REASON. THEY COME STANDARD (INFACT - THEY ARE REQUIRED!) ON ALL VEHICLES! THERE IS NO REASON WHY YOU CAN’T TOGGLE THE LITTLE LATCH TO MAKE THAT IDDY-BIDDY BULB LIGHT UP SO THAT PEOPLE KNOW YOU ARE PLANNING TO TURN!
These weren’t the only things that happened last week, but they were the most irritating and frustrating and I really needed to let some of it out before this week turned out the same.
