when keeping it real could go wrong

yesterday, i decided to finally make that step.... to the waxing salon. i thought i'd make an attempt to step my maintenance game up and just get the stuff waxed off. on a scale from 1-10, i'd give it a 5.5: not too bad, not a piece of cake - but above average on the pain factor. ouch! it's almost summer, so ladies check out "skin beauty spa," it's on capital hill and the people there are amazing!

on to the drama... it was snowing, but i was determined to make my appointment. i had an 11:30am appointment, it was 10:45am and i was backing into a parking spot that i noticed i missed. as soon as i started backing into the spot, a white suv with a broken side mirror zooms in - through the snow - to take the spot. well, i have a temper - so needless to say i was heated! this twirk sits in the car - i get out and yell at the dude (forgive me for being rude). the twirk gets out of his car and says - "oh - i didn't see you. sorry" yeah right. i said something i won't repeat on this blog and twirk states, "yes - i am every name you just called me"

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! i was soooo sooo close to doing so many things to that car and him! let's see - egg it, write profanities on his back window, pour soda across the windshield, whatever - you name it; all wild and crazy things. i'm a law student, so i went there - i thought of every possible charge i would have to face and what damages i would be responsible for (including that f'd up side view mirror).

fortunately, i had an appointment to make - but at first when i was getting waxed "down there," i plotted: i thought about all the horrible things i could do.... however after the first few yanks, my mind went elsewhere. i got over the car situation. big deal - it's only a parking spot asshole. haha.

now i will say this: it's black history month and i'm not about promoting violence. fortunately for him, i didn't spend my morning watching roots, rosewood, or god forbid - mississippi burning.. the outcome could have been totally different...

and to make light of this whole experience, a clip from chappelle's show:


happy monday!
