Bitch is the New Black
Last night, at the end of a work event that we had to BEG people to attend (it was a charity event), a colleague who did nothing to help boost attendance though it was her responsibility to do so came up to me and said, “Next year, we really need to drum up some excitement about this. It’s a great event!” She then went on to tell one of my supervisors and me about what a shitty PR person I am.
I went home after the event and vented to GTB for a good 30 minutes. I’m pretty sure that toward the end of my rant, I was foaming at the mouth.
This afternoon, I attended a meeting offsite where someone I worked with on a project last summer told a roomful of people, yours truly included, that my company “totally dicked up” the project.
I IMed GTB when I got back to work and said that by the time I left the meeting, I was ready to hit someone with my car.
GTB’s response: “You have a lot of anger right now.”
As I hastened to defend myself, explaining that it isn’t anger it’s just that I’m too pregnant to be expected to be tolerant of other people’s bullshit, I realized that he might have a point.

Y’know, this whole pregnancy things has had opposite effects on us. You seem to be less tolerant of others’ bullshit and I want to cry all the time. Aren’t hormones fun?

Oh please. Like I don’t cry.
