2 small miracles (for me)
akid was sitting next to me on the subway and he wasn't even man spreading - he just kept brushing his uberly soft skin arm up against mine and it was growiing me out. I felt annoyed and like he should have been the one to adjust himself since I was in the seat first. Whatever - I wanted to get up - or hit him with my bag (one of my favorite subway moves) and/or huff and puff - blah blah blah. All things that would ultimately hurt me. I moved my own arm so I wouldnt have to be picking up on his weird images in my mind (part of the reason I dont like touching strangers to begin with) and just didnt do anything. I just felt annoyed and moved myself. Miracle number 1. HEre's the next one. An older woman came in here - to the store - she's been in here before - shes a racist and shes horrible - she told another customer once to "Go back to the country you came from." I think I wrote about her before. Anyway she came in - went in the dressing room with a dress - pulls the curtain aside and heads towards my water - brand new big bottle of Poland Spring s- the BIG bottle - and says "Can I wash my hands?" I said - "no - we don't have a sink" she says "Cant I use your water?" I said "No! That's my drinking water!" She says - all demanding - "Can't I just have some?" I say okay - fine - I gave her a paper towel - I open the water and I go to pour some on her hands - and she's - ha - trying to catch it and then she just GRABS the bottle AND STICKS HER BIG OLD LADY THUMB in my brand new bottle of water. She gives the fucking bottle a good old rim job and then says thanks. Ha and OMG are you fucking kidding me? Then she asks all sarcastically if I want her to buy me another water. "Do you want me to go get you another water?" Anyway - this is the point. By the time she left - and had driven 2 other customers away - I had decided the owner of the store is buying me a new bottle of water right? I BLAMING the owner for this. I go to grab money out of the cash box and then - then it just felt so uncomfortable. I was like - no - no Im just going to go for a walk instead and take money out of the bank, throw this water out and get a new water. Listen - I know I will have old lady thumbs one day very soon and I know I could have probably just drank the water. She also could have just gone and BOUGHT me a water - she didnt need to ask me 75 times. She's a horrible person. However - I ultimately said yes - to giving her some water to begin with - I didnt need to. It wasn't the owner's fault! I wasn't going TO STEAL money to buy another bottle of water. I mean I really had to stop myself. Listen I hate being responsible for my own feelings it sucks. But Im not going to be thief because some racist old cunt was pushier than I was prepared to deal with. Whatever - I guess it's 2 very small wins. Miracles? I still have pms - love you Bluebie bye.
