Cat-astrophes

My my...maybe age is catching up to me.

You know those grumpy old women you come across every now and then? I think I became one this week. Okay...maybe not completely grumpy, and I guess I don't qualify just yet as 'old', but I was definately one miffed chicky.

I actually told somebody to 'stay out of my personal life, and mind (their) own business'.

Not quite like me to become so vocal, but I guess the frustration of the last post accumulated. Here I was thinking I was calm, cool and collected...

But the lesson learnt was this...

Although I was driven absolutely nuts by this person, I found that they actually appreciated me saying 'get outta my life'. I guess it made my boundaries explicit. I found it ironic - it took me almost two hours to express to this person that I don't see them as a close friend and they have no authority to take matters of my life into their hands...but they walked away satisfied!

She actually said she had a lot of respect for me saying that.

...so I am here to re-emphasize....women are complicated.

I never thought I would be that abrupt with someone, and I never dreamt that they would respond with such admiration.

The moral of my story is this - point out the speck in everyone's eyes - they'll love you for it!
