occasional delusions of adequecy

I have eyes bigger than my wallet.　

My day started out with a dog walking. Some lady was walking towards me with a dog. Our dogs met (picture butt sniffing) and she made a comment about how Poppy, my corgi, and I look alike. Awkward and weird, but whatever. Then this lady manhandled Poppy, called her a fatso and proclaimed she needs to go on a diet. I said nothing to her as I had just woken up and still had sleep in my eyes. We parted ways and I told her to have a good day. When I got back to my apartment, I really thought about her comments. My dog is fat, needs to diet and I look like her? Yep. I didn’t cry or punish myself. I gave Poppy a good head scratching and told her that she’s the most beautiful dog ever. I know she can’t comprehend what happened, but I needed to give her some love. I ate a normal breakfast, didn’t purge and refused to hate myself.

What the eff, lady? You are officially the rudest person I can recall. Before treatment I would have self-destructed. Thankfully friends and family were within reach via phone today. As if today wasn’t trying enough, I had to have dental work done mostly repairing damage from purging.

This individual essentially ruined my day. Don’t be a jerk to a stranger because you have no knowledge of what he or she is up against.
