The cookie nightmare. Fast version - new bird store in town. Nice lady, know her from other store. Friends with Mom. Mom and I went to store. Lady said oh would you make us some cookies for our open house, you mom said to ask you. I said yes but wanted to say NO so bad but its a new store and I like her and FUCK! Then later she called me to verify and said that my mom had told her that I should make 24 dozen. WTF!! shape sugar cookies decorated. I told her its a buck a cookie. she said of well just frost them with a knife then. I said no. I dont do it like that. So I said let me do some figuring and would get back to her. So im making cookies and frosting on my two days off in a row and im getting angry for not having any time for me and no way in hell can i make 24 dz. so i called lady Thurs morn, open house is Fri,sat,sun but they only wanted cookies for sat. So I told her no way can i do 24 dz and that is alot anyway and if she wanted I can make some choc. chop cookies also. She paused alot. I dont care and getting angry at this. but it ended ok and they get what they get I guess they can buy some from the store if they want. So i called my Mom to say not to ever suggest me again and I only got about 4 words out my mouth and she started screaming with lots of cuss words (usual mom) and I hung up on her. I WILL NEVER AGAIN FROM THIS DAY FORWARD EVER! EVER! LISTEN TO HER SCREAM AT ME AGAIN ON THE PHONE. NEVER!! ESPECIALLY WITH THAT LANGUAGE!! NEVER! So it took me awhile. she claimed she did not suggest me, nor suggested 24 doz. I belive she did not suggest me cause Dad was there with her i guess and he verifyd but not so much the 24 dz. that I do believe she said. anway back to me. so im angry i lost both my days off work. i wont get anywhere near the worth of time i put into these and doing this just made me feel ever more bogged down, I actually mailed the vacation cards today also. UGH! So again another late night baking. all cookies are done and im ONLY charging her $50 cause I want my fucking money, I want her store to make it, and I just want to have a lazy summer. Normal price what I think I should get is $100, so im going to make them a bill with the $100 price with a discounted price of $50 so they know if they ever want me to do it again....its a buck a cookie!!!!! Jordan...im making yours for free. I was thinking of making the tiedye tshirts for your and Janies visit. not the picnic just for us to eat. haha.

Damnit! She asked me why I discounted it, and that I didnt have to do that! It's ok though. It eases my guilt for being so grouchy about the whole thing. Karma? Hahaha!
