"That Girl"

Hey everyone,
I'm updating from my cell phone so this is probably going to be short and choppy. I just really need to rant and this is going to be way too long for twitter or facebook.
So I am up in Chicago at this wedding, having a blast by the way, when I met "that girl". You know, the girl that seems to have zero tact and think that gives her the right to say stupid and ridiculous things. We have ALL met "that girl" at one point or another. So I guess it was only fair that last night was my turn.
Last night was the rehersal dinner and they has an awesome pool side barbecue. Drinks were flowing. Margarita for me but only one because I was driving. Well "that girl" had already said a few stupid comments to other people but at the end of the evening it was my turn. I was driving her and a few others home when I made a joke about Mike. He had gotten a little intoxicated and was acting really silly, so I said something sarcastic along the lines of "Yep, I chose to breed with that man" Well in a snotty tone from the backseat I hear, "Is he really even the father of your child?" She didn't ask in a funny sarcastic way like she was trying to jump on to the tail end of my joke. No, she asked it in the snotty tone that would imply that I had 50 kids by 50 different men and was now trying to claim one of them was the heir to Michael Jacksons fortune. My jaw about hit the floor as did everyone elses in the car. She didn't know me, she only met me about 10 hours earlier. She never even saw a picture of London. My reply...

"Are you kidding me? I have been with Mike for 10 F-ing years, 3 of which were spent trying to have a baby. I spent almost $7,000 to have that child. Don't you dare talk about my little boy, you know nothing about me or Mike or my family. Maybe you should get to know your audience a little better before opening your mounth again. Oh but to answer your question, yes I am 100% sure he is the father of my child. I'm not sure what you were trying to say about me or my husband but you can sure as hell leave my child out of this"

She quickly apologized, mainly because she was embarrassed though. I didn't exactly say that to her in the nicest of tones. I was so mad though and I am still fuming about this today. I can't wait until later to see if she tries to talk to me. I'm not going to make a scene or say anything to her. I don't want to cause any drama. Today is the wedding so I want to make sure everything is stress free and perfect for the bride and groom. So instead of keeping things bottled up I decided to just blog about it.
Thanks for listening, now I need to get ready for the wedding. It's going to be beautiful.

WHAT?! Who says that and WHY would that even come out of her mouth?! Honestly....to have been in her brain and hear her train of thought on that one...

Are you kidding me?! Who says things like that???? I'm sorry you had to meet this awful person!

Lora said...

Don't make me come to Chicago and kick that girl in the shins!! What the hell?? I am glad you responded the way you did, I probably would have been in too much shock to say anything. That girl is an idiot.

What a wench!! I'm proud of you for sticking up for yourself and taking the high road to avoid drama today.

Now just point her out to me and I'll smack her when no one is looking! lol

Good for you for coming down on her, what an awful thing to say!! I'll drive up there and tell her what I think about what she said if you want but something tells me you'd take care of her long before I could make the 3 hour drive :-)

Lauren said...

Holy crap, what a bitch! You handled it better than I would have!

Samantha said...

What an idiot.
She has to be a special kind of douche to mess with a woman's husband and/or kid...them's fightin' words.

Angie said...

WTH??? I can't believe the idiotic things people say. But I'm so jealous that you were able to say what you were really thinking. I usually come up with all that after the fact. Kudos!

Ooooh! I would have flipped out at least that badly. You shouldn't feel badly about it AT ALL. Try to enjoy the rest of your time!

You were far nicer than I would have been. I would have stopped the car and told her to get out.

Moe said...

I'm so sorry someone said that to you!!!!! Ugh.... I'm glad you said what you did back. She's lucky you didn't do more...I might have!!!

People can be so ignorant.

Amber said...

OH MY GOSH! What is wrong with people?!?! I think you handled it beautifully.

Kat said...

WOW! People...really...WOW
