If you recall in my most previous post, I mentioned a quote about good writers that write all the time. Well, I also say that good writers write when they're mad. When I mean mad, I mean when they're angry at someone or something or even someones' stupid actions.
Well that's what I'm gonna do on today's post.
So just the other day, things went from very relaxed to very stressful for me. The reason I say is that I had to go pick up my dad from work. The problem was that I didn't have a car at home because I let my younger sisters take it so they can get to school (they don't want to ride the bus). To make matters a little more interesting, my youngest sister had an appointment with the family Orthodontist on that same day as well at 4 pm.
So I was expecting my sisters to get home sometime between 3 and 3:15ish. I then get a call from my youngest sister to inform me that she's got an Orthodontist appointment at 4 (which I already knew when I began my day) and that they were giving 3 friends rides home from school as well. I then called my dad to inform him of this (he gets off work at 3:30, by the way) and that I was probably gonna be a little bit late getting him.
So I was waiting, expecting my sisters to be home no later than 3:15. Well, by the time I check the clock again, it was already 3:30. I thought to myself, I should've been on the road by know. I call up my sister again and she informs me that they're still on the road (Why am I not surprised?). In the end it wasn't until 3:45 pm that my sisters got home. AND my youngest sister still had an Orthodontist appointment. So it was a scramble in getting her to the Orthodontist office and then picking up my dad from work before heading back to the Orthodontist office to pick up my sister (I got her there with 2 or 3 minutes to spare).
You would think that this is the end of the story but it isn't (cue dramatic music).
Hours later, my mom and went to the high school to watch my sisters play in the winter band concert. The concert was fine. It wasn't until after the concert that I was cheesed off again. While my mom and I were walking back to our car, we notice the car my sisters drove up in. It wasn't even 5 minutes before we noticed that one of the back windows were opened, IN THE DRIZZLING RAIN!!! My sister (most likely the older one) drove up to the school and didn't even notice that she left one of the back windows open until I called her and chewed her out about it!!!
You know, I've let a lot of things slide, but what my sister pulled on this day was totally unacceptable. I suppose it's natural though. Don't get me wrong, I love my sisters to death but they can be arrogant sometimes. They can be total bean-heads/buffoons/etc.
And it's not just them. People all around can be stupid at various things (ie. driving, school, time commitments, etc.). People tend to fail at keeping to time commitments, over complicate things, and just doesn't use common sense. It's like one my biggest pet peeves. But that's how the world runs these days...
