Is Nothing Sacred Anymore?







Let me set the scene.  Mexican restaurant, about 5 o'clock.  Just me, Dorothy and Jason as the little kids were at Auntie's house.  Jason sitting on one side, Dorothy and I on the other.

So here's how it all goes down.  Waitress comes up to the table, looks my man up and down and then asks "is this altogether or separate tickets?"  I answer "together" with a hint of how dumb are you in my voice.  She proceeds to ask my man umpteen questions throughout the meal.  Stupid questions like..."that's a HUGE burrito, are you sure you can eat all that?"  At that point, I was calculating just how hard I would need to throat punch her to take her out for good.  Meal over and standing at the counter waiting to pay.  I'm standing RIGHT beside my man.  She rushes to the counter, gets as close as possible to him without actually becoming a parasite and then asks "soooo, what ya doing this weekend?"  Now I'm ready to open a can...a can of whoop ass on her.  I barely let my man speak as I felt the need to protect him from the tweeker, home wrecker that was attempting to latch onto him with his wife and daughter standing right beside him.  


Is nothing sacred anymore???  Really.  It wasn't like he didn't have a ring on or that his wife and kid weren't right there.  What makes a person so bold and stupid, especially when the other person is clearly not reciprocating the attention?  Dope.  No self-esteem.  Lack of self-respect.  Complete lack of respect for others.  Pretty sure it's all of them in her case.

What did I learn from showdown at Acapulco?  We have to be vigilant in today's world to protect our relationships.  Too many people in this world don't care about the consequences of their actions.  Could care less about how their actions hurt others.  They will blatantly attempt to ruin your life for their own pleasure.  It's my job and my man's job to make sure that our relationship is strong.  It falls on us to protect our family from the violators of this world.  We are strong.  We are one.  We will not be shaken.  Not today tweaker, not today!
