I feel like the biggest a-hole in the world the last few days. Wednesday night I had to make an emergency run at 11:00 to pick up some Tylenol at the nearest PetroCanada. As I pulled into the station there was a silver mini van literally parked ACROSS the 3 nearest stalls to the entrance. Already in a foul mood and armed with the backup of this new twitter feed I climbed out of my truck that I had to park at the back of the lot due to no spaces being available, hell bent on letting this person know what a dickslap they were being by parking in such a manner. I strolled up to their window as I was walking inside and blurted out "nice ####ing park job" at the driver who was sitting in the drivers seat. Turned out to be an older lady who could only muster up 4 words in rebuttal. I would have been much more ready and armed for a ######y remark as a reply, but all she said was "Oh I'm sorry hunny" and pulled her vehicle ahead slightly.
Despite my appearance I am normally quite mild mannered and very conscious of others feelings, but sometimes I just can't deal with the general public and I get that little twitch in the corner of my eye and lose it. I still feel bad.
