ouch?

i don't swear.
i just don't.
those words aren't a part of my vocabulary really.
and living in utah
and with the friends that i have
i don't hear swearing that often,
much less directed towards me.

however today. all of that changed...
{i'm making this way more dramatic than it should be.. haha}

me and annie
had just been enjoying summer.
we took the tandem bike up to the park
rode around,
played on the playground,
took videos,
just having a good time.

then i had the idea to go buy slurpees
from 7-11 with the change from the car!
great idea?
yeah i thought so too.

so we go to 7-11.
purchase our slurpees
and turn to go out to the car.
the way out to the door
is a bit narrow
and there was an old lady standing on the side
making it even narrower
and another lady walked in.
i went to just go in between them,
but the lady and i both turned the same way,
you know that awkward situation
when you try to get out of the person's way
but they move the same way?
yeah that happened.
so i just kind of giggled and
said sorry!
and walked out.
annie gets into the car
and as i open the car door
the door to 7-11 swings open
and i hear
"learn to have some courtesy bi****!"
yup,
she said it
right to me.
i was in shock.
at first i didn't even know she was talking to me.
i just stood there
and she walked back in.
then i got upset.
we got upset.
how rude was that!
okay so maybe i should have stepped to the side
so she could walk by,
but it's not like i bumped into her
or gave her this attitude of
"get out of my way".
honestly it's a pretty hypocritical statement...
obviously i'm not going to learn to be courteous from you!

it really put a damper on our day.
we were having so much fun
not a care in the world..
even though i knew i wasn't really the bad word she called me
it still hurt!
it makes me sad!
we even tried to give her the benefit of the doubt.
maybe she was having a bad day or something...
but we just felt it was so uncalled for!

we tried to just shake it off,
but it was really bothering us.

luckily
these bad feelings were countered
not too much later.
we went to see footloose
at the draper arts theater
and when we were sitting on the grass
a stranger behind us offered to let us sit on his blankets
because he had chairs.
we had blankets already
but i really appreciated his offer!
especially after what had happened earlier.
and it reminded me that there are still nice people in this world.
so now i'm over it.
and i've forgiven her.
everyone has their own story...
and i'm really not a b word.
i'm seriously not hard core enough to be one!
haha...

but really..

so other than that.
it was a LOVELY day
filled with fun with my best friend,
crossing stuff off our summer list,
and a beautiful summer night.
