Mundane? Not so much...


so you this may sound mundane and petty to you but it just shows the level of her feelings of entitlement...

me: oh i like your sweater (its a nice green, cotton, knit sweater...see above photo)

The Doctah: oh i got it at this new store called ColdWater Creek

( i let go of the fact that CCW has been around for many years and don't correct her. she likes to think she's omniscient in finding a 'new' store - so i let her think she's all that...but i digress)

me: well its really nice, i like the color

The Doctah: but would you just LOOK AT THESE SLEEVES!!!!!!! (she says with a harsh tone)

me: what's wrong with them?

The Doctah: they're TOO LONG! (now she's practically yelling at me because i don't see the immediate (or invisible) problem with the sleeves)

me: well why did you buy the sweater in the first place?

The Doctah: they weren't like that when I bought it...

me: ( in my head..."oh..i see...it's the mysterious shoe making elves that snuck into your overly done, way to large for you, all white, all suede and faux fur, 4 bedroom (with only one person living there) condo, in a gated community of people you refuse to associate with? THEY snuck into your place and stretched the sleeves out before you bought it...ok...that makes sense...YOU CRAZY BAT!)

me: (in reality) but it's a cotton sweater...it's going to stretch a bit.

The Doctah: i'm bringing it back

me: but you're wearing it...you can't wear something and then bring it back just because you didn't bother to try it on and make sure the sleeves fit.

(and mind you...the sleeves are NOT too long. )

The Doctah: well then they'll fix them for me!!

me: what? it's a mainstream store...not a custom tailor...they don't do alterations or make ammendments. it's not their responsibility to make sure that you try the clothes on. (so i stop here because i know it doesn't matter HOW much sense im making...she'll never get it)

The Doctah: well i know 'the girl' there and she'll have it fixed for me.

needless to say...she's out of her freakin mind...

am i the insane one?
