For those of you who have stuck through the bad morning saga here is a little, or giant either way you look at it, taste of my life right now. I'm large and in charge. :) 35 Weeks!!! We will get to meet this little one soon!
I know that you thought my bad morning was over, but no, sadly or happily for the sake of blog funnyness and "this would only happen to me at 9 months pregnant-ness". It was not over.
So pissed off at the rudeness of Membership Man I left the store without buying the pass and stated that I had never been treated so rudely and would never step foot in this store again...... Bite me irony.
In the car on the way back to my house I decided that some poor other soul who is nine months pregnant should not be treated the way I was and that it was my civic duty to report the lack of customer service I recieved to the store manager. So I called the store and did just that. And it felt good. I have NEVER done something like that before but I really wanted Membership Man to know that you don't tell a nine month prego mom that she doesn't have a brain. You just don't.
While driving home I glanced into my purse and noticed that my coupon book was missing....
You know, my coupon book with the cash in it that I had withdrawn from the back this morning..... You know, the cash that is supposed to last us for a month... the $800 dollars CASH!!!!!!!!
Side note......... Poor Eli is going to be the boy that no parent will let thier child play with due to his potty mouth from the words he heard in the five seconds following the realization I had left my coupon book at the dreaded food warehouse desk of Membership Man that I had already reported to his store manager. There is no need to type the words that I said through tears here. Yes I said every one of them.
"Hello store manager of food warehouse that I will never step foot in again, Yeah its me crazy prego who just stated that none of your employees have any customer service skills? Remember? Ok good... you do remember? Well ha funny, I was wondering if someone namely Rude Membership Man might have found a hot pink coupon book that has around $800 dollars cash in it? And if so I may actually step foot in your store one more time."
Store manager man was really nice and said, "Sure I'll go check.." .........Tears Tears Crying Cursing...... Really God this is not a funny joke in humility......"Mame? we have it. I'll have it waiting for you at the MEMBERSHIP DESK!!!!!!!"
So to conclude my way to long saga of a bad morning. I hulled it back to food warehouse with my tail between my legs. Lugged Eli back into the store, faced Ubber Rude Membership Man who gave me the 20th degree about exactly what color my coupon book was and exactly how much money was in it.... (Is this guy for-real? I sort of felt like David after Dentist, is this real life?) Proved to him that infact I really did NOT have a brain, and went home.
And ate cookies. And chocolate milk. And a whole hunk of cheese. And ice cream. Because I'm allowed right now damnit.
Dear God,
Could you please remove the BE MEAN to the prego chick sign from my forehead and GET THIS KID OUT OF ME!!!! Before I kill someone. Thank you and I love you. Thank you for loving EVEN ME.

Parker can play with Eli....I had a day like that where I was frustrated and I was cursing in front of him. In fact, the other day when he decided to go swimming in a pond at a park I screamed oh crap and now he walks around saying it!
