“I don’t want to play”
So today was one of those day’s you know we all have them, feeling gross, bloated, ugly, and definitely cranky. For me I refer to those days as the ones where ‘I don’t play well with others” or ” I don’t want to play in your sand box, because I will throw sand in your eyes to make you cry and then throw my bucket at you.” So today was one of those, all day people are talking to me, and I am like GRR leave me alone I don’t like anyone today, please feck off…. the end of day comes and I have been working out quite a bit so Monday’s are normally a good workout day.
I fought this knowledge all day, I had been determined to not go ( because I didn’t want to damn it) right from 7:30 in the morning. Needless to say not the best way to motivate yourself, anyhow I go to the gym, with my “I don’t want to play” attitude, which clearly didn’t work. I stayed on the treadmill for about 5 min before deciding I hated today and it was the fault my sore legs. So instead I head to the weight room (which is full of friggen motivated people who all want me to play in the sand box and smiles smiles everywhere) that lasted a whole 7 min of abs and fiddling with my mp3 and water bottle. Finally I can’t take the happy people any longer and go home.
Things are getting better, for 1 – I have left the happy motivated people in their sand box and handed in my bucket. Off to a better night, the Cab driver seems nice, doesn’t say anything but for me that’s good. I then call up my fav Thai place and order some not nutritious food that should be ready in 5 or 10 or 7 minutes. So on my way to the food, I have frumpy clothes on, grrr all the way there, don’t look at me, don’t get in my way attitude, I hear my name and I stop in my tracks and I see it is my new friend. It was actually nice to run into someone, changed my mood a bit, as we discuss (ok I bitched) about our days, this random woman walked directly up to me and said, “I know I don’t know you lady’s but I hope I can interrupt for a moment” Emmy and I are somewhat set back at the this. She turns to me and Say’s ” I just saw you from across the street and have to tell you, you have the most beautiful Bangs, your hair is so cute”.
Of course this is a shockingly nice moment in my ass of a day, so this wonderful lady continues to compliment me out of nowhere only making me feel happier and happier to the point of tears. It was the best thing that could have ever happened to me today. As she went on she proceeded to tell us that she feels that the world is just not nice enough anymore and she is has started to tell 5 people a day how beautiful they are, which in turn (as Opera has said) will make you feel more beautiful. From there I picked up my food, bottle of wine and my day couldn’t be any better.
So thank you random lady, you have made my day. And I pass this story on to all of you to spread the word, lets make others feel better because you never know when your kind words may make someones day make a complete turn around. Everyday, select 5 people and tell them they are beautiful.
