Fussin' and fightin'

I have really been neglecting my poor blog.

Due to personal circumstances, I need to rant today.

Question... why can't liberals argue fairly?

Or better yet, why can't liberals own up to their own mistakes?

I had a good friend, or shall I say I thought she was a good friend. I was a good friend to her, and as long as I did exactly as she wished, it would stay that way. Well, I did something not to her liking, and she went behind my back and tried to sabotage my job.

What did I do that she didn't like? I took Voluntary Time Off when it was offered. Oh my GOD... I should be lynched.

So, it got back to me from more than one source that she was saying some very unkind things about me to co-workers and "higher ups". That didn't set too well with me, so I confronted her. Well, of course she denied it, and somehow spun this to appear like I was trying to get her fired.

I came to work today to find her sitting at her desk with all her belongings in a box. Oh, did I mention that she also returned all the gifts I gave her for Christmas?

All of that drama just because I said, "I'm 43 years old. Why are you talking about me behind my back?"

Pardon my language but this is so fucking childish. I just wanted a simple explanation. Even if it was, "Why? Well let me tell you why!! You pissed me off! Stop taking so much VTO!" but no, she denied the whole thing.

When two people tell me exactly the same thing within 24 hours of each other, and it's almost word for word, in words that my good friend would typically use, I tend to believe the source. Besides, I've seen her do this to three other people she called "friends". Why would I think I was so special?

But that's beside the point I'm trying to make here. The fact is, I'm mad and I have reason to be. She's mad because of the way she spun my confrontation. She can't deal with just being wrong, so she has to somehow make this my fault.

I got a response from her that said something like, "First Mike, (her ex that she just dumped) now my job. What are you going to take next? My kids?"

HUH????

Uh, I didn't take your no-jobadon, loser, pot-smokin' freak of a boyfriend. I didn't do anything to your job. You're screwing that pooch all on your own. And good Lord above, I don't wan't your kids!!! I'd have to kill them and turn them into cat food.

All this because she couldn't tell me she's mad at me.

And how was YOUR weekend?
