I know this is a diet site, but I feel the need to take this journal entry above and beyond that and share the events of my weekend. lol

I'm actually kind of glad to be back at work this morning! Who would've thought! lol. Overall, my weekend was great! Went camping and had lots of fun with friends and listened to some great music. My husband is master of the outdoors, so he really enjoyed cooking everything and setting up our own little village of a camp site :) Got some sun, relaxed, and just enjoyed being outside!

With all that said, I was also somewhat stressed out. We continually had to kick out crazy drunk people who would wander into our campsite, asking for vodka, cigarrettes, other substances (none of which we had), and hitting on all of the girls and talking nonsense. One guy saw the tattoo on my shoulder and grabbed the strap on my dress and said "let me see your tattoo". Umm, no. lol. Then some people we were camping with decided to just sit on their asses and not help clean up after meals or help tear down camp. It was very irritating. If there's one thing I don't like, it's people who don't pull their weight.

Also, on Friday night, one of our "friends" decided to be a complete asshole and start making fun of where I went to college (starting off with football), and made the comment "All people like to do in Blacksburg is shoot people". Yes, you read correctly. If I haven't shared it with you already, my husband and I went to Virginia Tech. I was a sophomore when it happened. We lost 32 classmates that day, and I don't in any way find it amusing. It is still very painful to think about, and was the scariest day of my life. So, needless to say, this comment infuriated and devastated my husband and I, as well as the rest of our friends. Of course my reaction was yelling and cursing, insulting his character, telling him he was a sad excuse for a human being, etc. and THEN he went on to qualify his statement, and say "There was a shooting up the street in the town I live in the other day, I don't see the big deal". What. The. Fuck. It pretty much ruined the night for me. Then in the morning, he apologized to my husband, who was also very upset, but evidently my husband and I are the same person or something, so to this person one apology would suffice for the both of us. Uhh, no it doesn't. I will not be talking to this person again. What a fucking asshole. I am sorry for bringing this up, as I know it is very painful to people (including me) who were touched by this tragedy, but I don't think I can resolve my feelings about his comments without writing it down somewhere.

Anyway, I drank a lot this weekend, but ate healthily and got a lot of exercise, so I probably broke even in the calorie department. It is a new day, and a new week. Trying to process everything that went on this weekend, good and bad.

I hope everyone has a great day.

Sorry again for the long journal and depressing subject matter.

Looks like I'm not the only one who had a good/bad weekend. IMO people who don't really know the facts or what they're talking about should just keep it closed. Especially when they know it may hurt someone. Some things are just uncalled for. I also agree with you that a bogus "one apology is good enough" is not right. You must have gave it to him good enough to scare him into not being man enough to apologise the right way! Good for you!!] I'm sorry your weekend started out crappy, but I hope it ended well and you were able to enjoy yourself at some point. Hang in there.

Sorry for your sad thoughtless friend. Too bad, guess he will have to go be insensitive somewhere else. Glad you were able to speak your mind concerning him and sorry but he probably couldn't apologize enough. Thank goodness it isn't in our power to change them but only ourselves. Lesson learned, continue to be sensitive to other's hurts and feelings. Whatever lesson he got... he can talk about at a later date (and probably not with you). Hope you have a good week :)

WOW! How cruel! That certainly makes for a difficult situation. Sounds like you handled it well. Good for you! Hang in there! I'll be thinking of you this week.

Thank you guys for your support! It was a very shitty thing to say. I'm finally over it, I just won't be talking to him again. He will probably be at every social gathering we go to, but I will not be going out of my way to make conversation with him. He is a loser and that's all there is to it. Thanks again guys!

Every now and then, ok, every time I see her (I don't see her that often), my sister in law will say something snide about my growing up in OK. I know she's just trying to be cute, but I would love to tell her that central PA isn't that much different than Oklahoma. The accents are a little different, but I don't have to drive too far to find a dryer on somebody's front porch around here! I'll forgive her, though. She knows not what she speaks. You douche-y friend, though...WTF?? One of the guys the shooter killed was from around here, and they run a 5K every year in his honor. Jeremy Herbstritt. What an idiot friend you no longer count as a friend. Glad you had a good weekend! I also ate and drank too much, but gosh it was fun!
