I have had the stupidest things happen to me lately.

Saturday night, Joe and I are at WalMart, wasting time before a movie. I decided to use the restroom before leaving. There was one lady in a regular stall and three regular stalls open. The open stalls were all filthy and disgusting - toilets plugged up, etc. I figured I'd used the handicapped accessible stall and then go tell Customer Service that the bathroom needs some attention. Wouldn't you know, here comes a middle aged woman with a walker. I open the stall to leave and she starts b*tching at me. I apologized and told her that the remaining stalls were absolutely filthy. She continued to screamed at me while I washed my hands, slammed the stall door and called me a "rude f:censored: ing b*tch." Totally uncalled for. I considered telling her a few things, but then thought how it would look when she called the police and I was accused of fighting with a handicapped woman.

Last night, we were going to get my air conditioner out of storage at my parents. As we get in the car, the cell phone is ringing. The voicemail picks up before I can. When I listen to the voicemail, it's what I think is a child, leaving a threatening message. It went something like - Watch out at 12:00. Lock all your doors and windows because I'm coming to get you. I'm coming to get you, b*tch. I further believe it was a child because he didn't block his cell number. I called it back, no answer. I was hoping to get a parent. I then called the State Police, who called the number and left a message - Joe and I would have loved to have seen that child's face when "Trooper Whatever" from the PA State Police called him. This kid's parents need to know what he's doing with his cell phone. He really could have scared an elderly woman with that kind of stuff. I did, however, close my bedroom window at 11:30, just in case.

This morning, I wake up with what looks like a chemical burn on my face. I think the new face soap I bought and used before my "Clean Pore" lotion were too strong. It hurts and I look like an idiot. Mom told me to put cortizone on it, but don't get it in my eye. I told her "With my luck lately? Expect a telephone call from the ER."

Ok...enough goofy stuff already!

Gosh, Stacey, when it rains, it pours!! I have used the handicapped stall too, when there was nothing else available. I always think about some handicapped person would need in right when I was in there. It hasn't happened yet, but now I see what could happen if it did. That lady was awful! The kid was just creepy, I'm glad they knocked his cockiness down a few notches. I want to say, it can't get any worse, but then I don't want to jinx you. I hope your luck changes for the better!!

I have too. I will also use it when I have my youngest boys with me and I wont let them go to the mens room by themselves.

Cindy - If this is your luck, I'm sending back to you via overnight mail!

I've actually had a good laugh over both the handicapped accessible incident and the nasty little voicemail today. I, however, have not laughed at my face. I'm sure the lady at Walgreens knew exactly why I was buying the hydrocortizone cream. I noticed that the double bags under my eyes went away...that's a good sign :bbredface:

Thats terriable Stace!! I hope things get better for you! I would freak out over all of those things too. Believe me I would have given that Handicapped lady an earful but tried to keep it respectful! What are you supposed to do, hold it until you get home because the only washroom available is the Handi one?? Thats ridiculous!!! As far as that message I wouldn't have slept a wink, but thats me. We have an alarm on our house and I still don't sleep very well. (and big signs to go with that alarm too!! lol Any one breaking in would be stupid to NOT see the signs. Lmao) I'm just a paranoid freak.

I'm sorry to hear about the chemical burn! Thats horriable. I've never had that happen to me but thats because I just use plain old soap on my face...lol. I know I should use something better but at least I wash my face...lol...I never used to when I was a teenager. The only time it got washed was when I was in the shower at night. I never washed my make up off before bed! Anyhow, I hope your burn clears up soon for you and the pain goes away!

Take care. My fave saying is "If I didn't have BAD luck, I'd have NO luck at all!!!" Hope it gets better for you very soon!! :)

Sorry about your bad luck Stacey. That woman was uncalled for. I hate it when people think that just because they are handicap or have some other issue that it gives them an automatic pass to be rude. (I'm defiantely not staying that all handicap people are like this- I know better, just a few.)

I'm glad you called the police on the person who left you the scarey message. That is crazy. I would have been really scared.

I hope your luck gets better!

Oh my! Sorry to hear of your rough few days.

I too have used the handicap stall in the bathroom when there were no more available. Once while I worked at a restaurant, (I was changing into my uniform) some lady with a cane came in and said a few things under her breath, I apologized and walked away. She complained to the manager! Nothing happened to me though, the manager had a crush on me ;)

That threatening phone call was pretty creepy too. I am sure it was just a prank but if you get anything else like this, call the cops. You know you can do a reverse look up on a phone number and see who the number is registered to. http://www.anywho.com/ I am not sure if it works with a cell phone though.

Anyway, I hope things get better for you and your face clears up soon! I sometimes get redness with harsh creams and cleansers.

I always use the handicapped stall at my work just because it's more open and I'm really claustraphobic (sp?) and the little stalls just make me feel uncomfortable. The whole TWO years I have worked there, there's never been a problem. A couple weeks ago I was in there and I came out and there was a lady in a wheel chair and she gave me the nastiest look and then pointed to the handicapped sign.

I wanted to say something really not nice to her but I just washed my hands and walked out. I know how you feel, I was sooooo irritated!

As far as the burn, I feel for you! It's never happened to me, but I couldn't imagine what that would be like!

Don't worry, it'll get better!

I know how you feel about the facial burn. I got a facial yesterday and the chemical she put on my chin and nose to dissolve blackheads (:censored:) was a little too strong for my skin type. So I have been kind of red and tender today.

As for the the handicap person, let her go use the filthy stalls once or twice. Those stalls are handicap accessible not handicap reserved.
