You Can't EVEN Be Serious

"GIRL, You gettin' FAT! My husband told me you was gettin' fat!" (This was said to me LOUDLY in the MIDDLE. OF. WALMART.)

On what planet is this considered polite conversation?!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Because of some wierd medical issues I've been having, my doctor has advised me to stop taking my anti-depressants until she runs some tests to rule out a couple of things. This is day 2 without my happy pills, and my anxiety could power a city. I have no idea how I am going to manage the next few days.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Today was the political primary here in Indiana (GO HILLARY!), and on my way home I was greeted by this scene:

She was holding up a little "Vote for Obama" sign. My husband objected strongly when I began to roll down my window to shout rudely make polite conversation about a flier Obama supporters put in my door. Which, BTW, had an outright LIE in it. (Which is a rant for a later date. But until then, just picture me loudly ranting Saturday to a puzzled James and a shocked M... "WHAT THE HECK IS HIS PROBLEM?! DO YOU SEE THIS??? DO. YOU. SEE. THIS?! THAT IS A LIE! A COMPLETE AND TOTAL LIE! *pointing at the lie while waving the flier around wildly in their faces and nearly hyperventilating*")

Then, a block away, I saw this:

He was a Hillary supporter! *proud of him*

So, I dropped my hubby off at home and went to vote... and then, alone in my little car, drove excitedly back to find our friendly sign-holding friends.

Guess what? THEY WERE ALREADY GONE!!!!!! I was BEYOND disappointed. All the work of voting, and I didn't even get to shout my political opinons at random strangers! I was sad. :(

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

And this series of rants does not EVEN include the blood test vs the car saga, which is too long to recount and not yet over.

And shall I remind you, once again, that all of this his happening WITHOUT. MY. HAPPY PILLS?!

Don't tell me she took you off your pills cold turkey? That is MESSED up if that's what happened. You should have been taken off extremely slowly. When I came off mine I cut the pills into pieces a quarter off a week to make the shift easier and my brain chemistry was still so messed up that I could hold stuff. WTF?

I love that you got so riled up about politics although wish it wasn't lack of pill inspired.

Don't tell me that first sentence was real. I may have to go beat somebody up.

I have to agree with Suzie, I have never heard of a doctor pulling someone of meds that quickly, it is usually a gradual process, I would be worried that it shock your system. No wonder you are struggling. That makes me angry, I am so sorry.

As for your political standpoint on Hilary *eck, gag me* anyhoo, I thought it was cute how you were so ready to speak with those "Obama" supporters. Give them a little piece of your mind.

I will never understand how so many people support those two political fanfaronade bipartisans.

Sorry, kiddo, I am just not a fan, but you already knew that. *wink*

Since you're not on your happy pills I will leave it at that. Because I love you even if you do support Hillary.
