Warning Rant---Does any one else feel this way?
I stood in lines twice today. One at the market another at the post office... I must be a magnet to these people...just because I offer a smile doesn't mean I want to get close and personal. I do not want to share your scent or body fluids of coughing spits or sneezing...
Ahh find it, show me Scarlet, and I promise to go all over town this week giving it with both barrels.
Remember I'm a magnet...

The first person behind me kept edging closer til she literally touched the heel of my shoe...I moved forward no less than 5 times. I move she moves.
I have a certain type of invisable field that surrounds me, it's called personal space...MY Personal Space...and no I don't think you have ^*&%talent when you are talking on your cell, while spit comes slinging out the side of your mouth targeting my jacket. YOU"RE TOO CLOSE!
Second person, after four tries, I just hit the back of the line...
A friend I have, feels she has to share every word within 2 inches of my face, I actually fell backwards one time...
ok...feel better
hugs kimmi
I turned to one guy once in line who was so close I could feel his breath, and I told him if he stood any closer, we'd be legally married in five states.
Hmm... Mac doesn't like harassment... :kimmi takes five steps back, looks over shoulder for Mac...listens for her whispered zoom zooms:*takes another step towards Kimmi/wiggles eyebrows again*
I'm always a nut about my personal space, but it was really bad when I was pregnant/hormonal/psychotic. Get ready, WildScribe. I once actually threw people off an elevator because it was too crowded.
"Hey! You! You! And you! Get off the friggin elevator. Can't you see it's full? This isn't empty space. There's a belly there and NO I am NOT expecting twins. There are six friggin elevators in the place. One will pick you up. In fact, after this one goes up, it will come back down. Now get off."
Except I didn't say friggin. Strangely enough, about half the elevator cleared off. They still tease me about this down at the court house.
I had an acquaintance rub my belly already, and I swear to god my instinctive reaction was to BITE her. I almost did. I managed not to, and she was gone before she realized how much danger she was in.
I WILL be picking hands of my stomach with a load "EXCUSE ME!" I guarantee it. NO TOUCHY!
Oh Snap!If I sense someone behind me I usually step back onto their foot when I'm finished with the ATM and it's always them who says sorry.
You know, I was expecting a lot of touching when I was pregnant but it never happened. Not once.
