So I go over to Bed Bath and Beyond yesterday on my enjoyable afternoon of no kids, no husband, a hot date with me myself and I.
I needed square plates, glass ones. For a scrapbooking class next month. I will have to post a picture, to confusing to explain, and I will be SO off subject.
Anywho, so I get my 8 plates, a new king bed pillow for Spaghetti (since I hoard all the other 3 and leave him a skimpy little pillow) a boo boo cold patch in the cute shape of Tigger, and I picked up Spaghetti's other birthday present from my parents. (can't tell you, sometimes he reads this!)
And so I proceed to the checkout, still high off my coffee buzz, and my quality me time. I get to the cashier, freeze. Look for other cashiers. Shit, she's my only option. And I know she saw me look around. Damn it.
Right so this cashier, lets call her Pager, since back in 1997 she borrowed my pager since I was upgrading to my first cell phone. It was back in the day when you could pay your bill a year in advance, and I paid my $200 for the year. Well after a few months of not paying back her $20 a month agreement, Pager disappeared.
About 6 months later she stopped by my mom's house, to see me. I introduced her to my new boyfriend, Spaghetti. After a short time the pager I "lent her" went off. I said "hey how about some payments?"
She had to hurry up and leave.
That was over 10 years ago. My best friend, dumped our 7 year friendship, because her lame ass couldn't even look at me to say, "hey, I can't afford to pay you, and my boyfriend won't pay anymore, so I am just going to ignore you. Forever"
Yep, that was awkward at the Bed Bath and Beyond counter. She said "hi" I gave her a fake smile, and hoped it looked fake. I need not make a scene, I need not remind her. She knows.
I know she got the message.
Her cousin, is friends with one my friends, and anywho, they asked me a few years back if I would still be Pagers friend and if she could contact me...
I said, tell Pager that she owes me $200, and then after that, I still don't want to be her friend.
I'm pretty sure by the look on her face. She got the message.
She didn't ruin my happy buzz, just made me throw up in my mouth a little...
