Rude Vendors


Why am I the weirdo?!?

This lady just walked and started leaning on the wall. She asked me for my name without introducing herself first. I HATE THAT!! If you are vendor and want my business, you will at least have the courtesy to introduce yourself before demanding information about me. I gave her my name and then asked for her's. She gave me a card and asked about "M". I told her that she no longer works here and then she asked if I was familiar with their company. As I've made multiple orders from them for the past 5 months, I felt insulted that they didn't remember me. "M" has been gone a year and the girl after her 5 months.

She then started leaning into the window AND MY PERSONAL SPACE. I scooted my chair back and gave her a quizzical look. I don't understand why people think they have to lean into my window. There is a reason I open it up just enough to be polite without giving them the availability to squeeze into the room with me.

Why do they always act like I'm the freak 'cause I react the way I do to things like this? I've never been one to invade a person's personal space or treat a customer like they work for me.
(The drawing is my interpretation of the lady against my window. Told you I didn't have much of a talent in drawing. I caught the spelling mistake after I had already scanned this. I do know how to spell "mouse.")

My Guiness Record

Ok, so I am not very talented. I'm not a great singer, artist, actress, crafter, photographer or writer. I'm a Jane-of-All-Trades but a master of none. My love of art (in all its forms) comes with the desire to be hands on. I'm inspired to participate and study but there will never be an event showcasing my work.

But don't feel too bad for me. There is a small flicker of hope that has appeared for me. I have a very unique arm hair (the top of my arm, near the shoulder) growing out of a tattoo that is not only tinted blue but also grows out longer than the rest. It is nearly 2 inches long.

I got the "wild hare" to submit my physical annomily to the Guiness Book of World Records. There isn't a section for this yet, so there is a good chance that I might get in. I've filled out the application and will hear something in the next 4 to 6 weeks. Till then, I'm carefull not to scratch the area and thus accidently removing the hair.

After I get my recogniztion, I plan on selling my hair on Ebay. Portions of the funds raised will go to dog club I volunteer for as we're in need of some serious dough. I'm hoping that I'll be able to raise some serious cash with any publicity I get with this.

If it just pans out, no problem. It will just be another thing I tried out and didn't succeed at. It makes for an interesting story, though.

Back again.

Ok, so today is going to be a very, very slow day (I hope). That means I have time to update this blog and add some stuff to it that I've been putting off.

I'll get to work on adding my interesting stories and random thoughts soon enough.
