Last night in Tescos...




This video popped up on my TL yesterday in a group I'm in over on Facebook... and I wasn't sure whether to share it or not, I think most of my friends on here already know this... but there's a line in this video where one of the girls says... 

'that's like imagine how much of a nice person 
you would be if you weren't such a massive prick...' 


and it rang true last night after weigh in... firstly I was up.. I'm OK with it, I'm still sick, I'm really down in the dumps and I just want Xmas to be over... But after weigh in, I went to Tesco to get some milk and at the express checkout a man (lets use that term loosely) called me a 'fat cunt' ... 
I just exploded... all those years in the print industry have stood to my unlimited knowledge of swearing and I let him have it... I asked him to repeat what he said but he hung his head... I wanted him to say it again out loud so everyone could hear, so it wasn't just for my benefit and to see if it actually was funny at all... I asked him 'can I not buy a pint of milk like everyone else in the store?' No answer... nothing... nada... and I kicked off! I have let people away with commenting on my body too often... It's not breaking news to me that I'm fat... it's not like I could thank him for closing the door on a very curious chapter in my life... IS THAT WHAT THAT IS?!?! Thank you so much random stranger... Lads I'm fat... well at least now we know!

There's no secret that I hate this time of year, it's very hard for me for lots of reasons and I know this time next week I'll be feeling heaps better looking forward to NYE (yes I'm one of THOSE people but I let you lot rant on about Xmas from August so give me my day OK?!) I had a really shite day yesterday, I was up at weigh in and I just wanted to get milk, go home and watch The Zoo and feel a bit better that another day was over... However I sat in the car for 40mins trying to compose myself to drive home... I'm not looking for sympathy or anything but it's tough for so many people this time of year and not everyone can be rainbows and moonbeams all the time... The Xmas spirit was clearly lost on this bastard and it helped no one, no one came out of that last night feeling better about life and that's the kind of person I am, life is too short to make someone unhappy... I didn't even see anyone else in Tesco, the mission was get milk and go home, I just stood in the queue and waited my turn, not commenting on other people! 

I'm pretty sure he won't do it again, and he'll go home and tell his mates 'some fat bitch lost the plot in Tescos' and they'll laugh about it but if it stops him commenting on someone else weight, height, hair colour, boobs then I'm OK with that... and lads if he looked like Rob Kearney I might not have sworn at him for so long...

Sorry for the rant but you all meet these people in life and life is hard enough and it's not OK to make someone who is already miserable even more so! People who bitch about fat people have nothing else better to do with their time... they're toxic...



So today I'm taking a self care day... I'm telling fibs to clients (no real change there to be honest) the bare minimum is being done today, I'm not answering the door (sorry postie!) and I'm just gonna breathe, listen to my fav music and do a face mask tonight... In fact it's probably better if I don't answer the door!

  3. Hope your feeling much better after your 'me day' :) Some people are just utter asses and must be having an even shittier day to think they can pass comment on someone else. Chin up and hope you are feeling better soon x

  4. Oh my god doll! That's outrageous!!! Fair play to you for calling him out - he deserved every bit of it and more!!! And you know it was nothing to do with you- he would pass nasty demeaning comments about whoever he saw even if she was Cindy Crawford, because he's a small-minded misogynistic bastard and I'm so sorry that people like him exist in the world and that he happened to cross your path. And I'm sending you loads of hugs and love and hope that you have a lovely relaxing time-out today xxx
