Okay I admit it, I can be fairly confrontational when I want to be....Char. But seriously, it makes me sick to my stomach when I have to actively choose to be confrontational when I could really just let it go away. But this time I felt like I was in the wrong since I lost/misplaced the clothes. Regardless, I did end up getting my camera back which is a plus for me, yay! I was more concerned about the books, which there was no sign of since it took me about 5 years to find them all at secondhand book stores since they are all out of print and they were some of my favorites. Can you tell that the reason that I never can find time to post is because I'm usually lost in a book? So I'm a book whore, sue me.
But back to the story-ish. So I'm driving to her house (and seriously, I have wanted to post about her forever! but I had some moral-ish issues about stuff Char knows about with people being mean and the Internet, not that she even knows I have a blog but I've been wrestling with it all the same) with the clothes beside me, all freshly laundered and folded, feeling great about myself because I overcame both the bad influences of my husband, (who can be really mean when he wants to be and who never really liked that family overly much, something about her constant put downs, their kid constantly lying to get Ben in trouble and her husband being a bit too much of a wienie to respect at all....seriously, I need to do a post about them cause, yeah they border just barely on the fun side of dysfunctional) and my own bitter, slightly vengeful side which really just wanted to keep the clothes just because I knew it bugged her (I was kinda planning on donating the clothes to the Goodwill and then letting her know where she could pick them up, see something good... sorta) and at that point I was a little tired of everything that she had done too.
So anyway, I'm driving to do my good deed when WHAM! I got sideswiped by another car!! I am dead serious! It took my driver's side mirror off. I was stopped behind a line of cars at the lights well before the partition for people to use when they turn left and there was a left turn green and apparently, this guy thought I should have moved over more, he practically took my mirror off! AND HE DIDN'T STOP!!! so I never even got his licence plate. So now my mirror is hanging by a little cable, dangling on the side of my car with the glass all cracked and broken.
Just goes to show, no good deed goes unpunished.....damn.

See, you shoulda just been rotten. You are right, no good deed goes unpunished- and that's why I choose to be rotten. Seems like nasty people always come out smelling like a rose. (I'm still waiting on my rosy smell, but it ain't come yet :))
Oh my goodness gracious. Thank God Kelsey you were not harmed. ((hugs)) What a flipping weekend you have had hon...((hugs)) another one for ya.
It sounds like your yelling at me and I'm not really sure why....LoL...I too hate confrontation and do everything I can to avoid it (unless you catch me offguard at which point I will easily tell you exactly what I'm thinking - and I'm mean...LoL). I'm sorry about your car. It figures though doesn't it. You try to be the better person and some asshat gets away with being an asshat at your expense again....
LoL Sorry if I came of confrontational there Char, lol. I think I was just reading your comment filtered though the stress of the day and automatically read it as though you were poking fun at me. Like in a confrontational, you? no, not at all, kinda way, so I got kinda defensive. But as for attracting confrontation, I think it's part of the people I'm immediately attracted to as friends. Since I tend to be a little introverted at times, I befriend extroverts and they just tend to be the type of people who, rather then squash feelings like I will most of the time, will let me know what they think of me and after being walked on a few too many times, I lash out back. Wow, that was a long comment but I just wanted you to know, Char, I wasn't yelling, just trying to address your comment since you're probably the person who's known me the longest that reads this blog...so my bad.
I was being ironic....LoL....no harm, no foul. I was pretty much agreeing with you.....LoL I'm the same way.
