Venting??

Its been a long week. I am so done and I am so tired. Though I did get my almond milk yogurt today which thankful for and some good berries. I got some yesterday that were bad and wasn't even worth the trip and what I dealt with.

So early this week I went to out to get some things done. I went to Ulta get a makeup palette thats out on line but not in stores yet which I think it came out today im not sure. Tho I went to target after to get a few things, I went to back out and cart hit the side of my truck. Its brand new not even a year old and I have worked hard to take care of her. The inside is clean, the outside is getting cleaned professionally soon because im not allowed to was her myself. I thought all was good, because hit the bed of my truck and didn't realize it hit my door. So I text Wonder Woman and the All Father the nice little (about 4 inch) scratch on my door. I am beyond mad. I found out recently not many people walk to the passenger side to check for carts left behind. I also found out this week because I didn't walk to check its a legal liability and I am at fault for the "accident" when someone else hit my truck with a shopping cart. And no it wasn't mine I dont touch those nasty things lol. Wonder Woman typically pushes them for me. So I call the dealer to get it fixed and found out I had to file a claim thru my insurance. What I thought was minor is about 400 worth of damage and we need parts. Its getting fixed. Im just mad.

So after getting the estimate at the dealer to get it scheduled to be fixed, and on my way home I was going to stop at Target but I couldn't find a close parking place in general and 100 is to hot for me to walk any distance outside. So I just went to food lion and I never shop there. I got about 4 other places and its really a last resort. I just wanted to grab some berries and leave. Well im checking out and the lady behind the register comes around and starts rubbing up and down my arm looking at all my tattoos. Touching me. If I know you I have no problems with hugs and such. But someone I have never seen before in my life and just talked to for a previous minute was rubbing on me. I tenses up and kinda glared at her thru my mask and was a bit short with her after. If I know you Im totally ok with hugs. Side note I really hate this social distance thing because I miss hugs I really do. I dont know why this person had to touch my tattoos. I have actually before this never had any one physically grab me to look at my art. I get stopped all the time, I even got stopped at the dealer but from a distance. But please understand most people with tattoos if you ask nicely they will show them to you. You don't have to physically grab them to get a better look. Espically during a pandemic. My oxygen should be a clue I have a poor immune system. Not to mention I am in  a grocery store with multiple food allergies and I have no idea what you touched. I also shouldn't have to be either on blast for someone to respect a strangers boundries.

I have always said its all in how you approach me. I will explain my oxygen, my tattoos, and my health if you just ask nicely. I am all for education, and I love showing off my ink and proudly pointing at them going "thats my fave." I'll even tell you the story behind them. Except for my Rubes tattoo then you'll just get a "thats my baby." Rubes the Cat is the Queen Bee and she certainly knows it lol. Also also… is really that hard to put a shopping cart up?? Is it??

I guess I am going to get off of here and enjoy my coffee and play some video games.
Love Yall
