Funny story, actually

[nilchance]

I've been gone from DW/LJ so long that it seems awkward to insert myself back into the stream. Especially after a blunt post like the last one.

So here's a funny story from yesterday:

I was sitting in the parking lot of a grocery store yesterday, waiting for an appt with my shrink. I was idling with the A/C on, listening to an audio book (Garden of Iden by Kage Baker, very good so far) and this dude opened my driver's side door.

I shoved him hard enough to bounce him off his van door. And then I burst into tears. (Did I mention that I've been diagnosed with PTSD? Yeah.)

He was apologetic as hell, because he'd just been clumsily trying to explain that my seat belt was hanging outside my door. He was very concerned about me, less so that he'd been shoved by mini!crippled!Hulk.

The funny part is that his wife was in the van. She opened the passenger door, investigating the loud bang followed by a stream of horrified apologies, heard what was going on, rolled her eyes, and closed the door without a word.

Story over. *curtsys*

How are you folks?

Thank you! I am kind of proud of myself for reacting instead of freezing. And yeah, once he'd explained I felt a little bad (a little but not very.)

I don't think it's too much! I love hearing from you even if I fail at commenting. I'm glad everyone is well. And I don't think LM#2 can outstubborn you. :)
