I might be wrong in feeling this way but this chick really worked my nerves on Saturday. Ok, let me give you a little background.
My best friend "Stubburn" recently had a baby. The baby was several weeks premature and is still in the NICU as I type this. She had a little boy and the doctor said he will be ready to come home close to Thanksgiving. Her mother, another close friend of hers named AJ and I are throwing her a babyshower this coming Saturday.
The three of us got together to this past Saturday to pruchase items needed for the shower (favors, banners, crep paper, game prizes, etc.). I feel I need to mention that we planned this little outting two weeks prior. On our first stop we all arrive at the check out and get rung up. The cashier upon completion states, "79.45." "Mom" and I reach for our money and I kept watching for AJ to reach for her money as well as this is a joint effort. I kept watching, and watching, and watching. This chick never parted her wallet let alone her lips to give a reason for her not contributing.
Ok......fine. We get to the second place. I am thinking to myself that this chick better come off some money at this next stop or else we are going to have problems.
We all get to the checkout. I pay for my portion and mom pays for hers but again, AJ didn't come off any money. Ok, I'm starting to get pissed. How are you going to co-host a babyshower and not share in the cost? This shit is not free.
I kept my mouth closed but I was tempted to say something. I'm not even finished either. I still need to purchase the food I am going to cook as well as the balloons for the venue (and we will need about 36 of those fuckers), envelopes for the thank you cards and a couple more game prizes.
I should call her behind and tell her to pick them up!
