WTF. I have this low level of angry energy surging through me and I just can't seem to shake it today. Maybe I'm hormonal. My stupid chin now has a volcano on it that could eclipse a planet. I'm all growly, grumbly, and pissed off for no real reason.
So today for lunch Trung and I went out. Someone in the lab is having a birthday today. It's the custom here to go out to lunch for people's birthdays. Whether you like them or not, it's a good excuse to get out of the lab or the office! We finally found the place where everyone was at (like 15+ people) and I realized with horror that it was a fish and chips place. #1 -- YUCK. I hate seafood. #2 -- the main point -- I had eaten at this place before. I ate a miniscule amount of food and my blood sugar went so high I nearly passed out. That's the day I learned that my diabetic life also means cutting out batter dipped food from my diet.
I decided to leave with about 4 other people, but they said they were going to the taco truck for lunch. Ew! First, they accept cash only, which I do not carry. Second, EW. I entertained the thought of eating at the fish and chips place because I noticed that different people had taken over the place and they they also offered...eh, I don't know what they were. The girls had their hair covered and they wore dresses from the head down to their ankles and wrists. There was falafel and hummus. Middle Eastern food? Anyway, I would have been willnig to try new food.
ung was trying to be helpful by saying I could go around the corner to the Subway sandwich shop and he would come get me. For some reason that pissed me off no end. He was sending me off to eat ALONE. He should come with me!! As MY boyfriend it's his obligation!! I said I'd stay, but that I wanted to sit next to him. He pointed out that there were plenty of seats and that pissed me off doubly. Some girl was sitting next to him. *I* had to sit away from him during lunch, which is the only time of the day that we see each other?! He could have switched chairs so we were sitting together. I might as well eat alone!! I got so pissed I just threw down the menu and stalked out.
Stupid jackass. If he won't play by my rules then I won't play. So I went to Subway and sat there eating by myself for as long as I could. When I was done I went to the car and not into the restaurant to silently make my point.
When he finally came out he scolded for sitting in the car when it's 90 degrees outside and said I should have come back in, blah blah. He asked why I didn't come in and everyone was asking. I wanted to say why would I waste my time sitting and socializing with a bunch of people I don't like instead of being with my boyfriend, whom I love, but I refused to talk to him at all. He didn't notice. Or, if he did, he just dropped it.
I'm not usually so needy and bitchy. Usually. I've been feeling like this the past couple of weeks and it's just getting worse. Therefore, it must be hormonal. I am usually able to control my feelings.
When did having lunch become so hard?!
