Petty (and immature), but I don't care!

Well, just heard through the grapevine that my old high school arch nemesis is getting a divorce. It's supposedly ugly (I think she cheated) and complicated (for some strange reason their new house is primarily in his parent's names?) and I'm ashamed to admit that I'm finding all of this embarrassingly enjoyable. It's a double-edged kind of happiness, because I know how petty it is to feel joy about someones misfortune, but I just can't help myself. So, for today, I have decided that I can feel guilt free happiness about the situation.

Before you judge too quickly, you don't know this particular person. She was, without a doubt, the meanest, bossiest, most aggressive and backbiting girl that I have ever met! For any of you who lived through the Ann saga, she make Ann look like Mother Teresa. To this day, she hates my guts for a myriad of silly reasons. I won't say that I hate her, because I rarely even think about her, but she's in my all-time, permanent, bottom ten people in the world that I'd like to spend time with. It'd take pages to tell you all the details, but suffice to say that she did all the evil stuff and Truvie was the totally innocent target of her rage! :)

So, today, we celebrate! When I bump into her this Christmastime in the hometown Walmart, I can feel a certain smug satisfaction that yes, my life is officially better that yours (I warned you that this was immature). Maybe karma caught up to a certain someone after all. Payback's a bitch for those Girbaud purple jeans you "lost" in 10th grade! Petty, yes, but I don't care. Hopefully, sane and rational Truvie will return tomorrow!

ahhhh!!! I think we have one of these people....one of those "fake" friends that for some reason had it out for you....reasonable. I wish them a life time of weight struggles...why that gives me great pleasure...well..I was about to say I don't know...but that wouldn't be true.

On your behalf, (and with the inspiration of Black Betty) I wish her a yeast infection that itches during church, and would like to personally add to this: a little itching while in line at the grocery store and the bank, while pumping gas, and during a meeting with her boss. All for you my love, because we all have these people, and I know you would wish the same on the ones in my life...MUAH!

Why don't you try praying for her. I have to admit when I see people I can't stand get sick or go through struggles my first reaction is YES!! But do we really want to be that kind of a person? The one who revels in others pain? Even if it is well deserved..I think compassion does more for our own charachter than loving to watch others suffer..Don't get mad at my comment..I so have reveled in others pain...but I don't want to be that kind of person anymore..it makes you a bitter not better..

Sorry, y'all, I've been sick all morning. Ok, Rorie- love you! Wishing badness on all the evil people in your life! Carter- yes, I did in fact go taco box on her! She got the taco box before I even KNEW about the taco box! And, lastly, Anon. You didn't make me mad. I agree with 85% of your statement. It's only that yesterday, I didn't want to be better. I wanted to be bitter. I'm over it now! That's enough bitchcakes for this week!
