The weather woman

Am feeling quite pissed (angry,frustrated,about to tear my hair out kind of pissed/ not DRUNK!) since last night an am dying to unload my two cents worth on The Weather Woman.

"Who is she?" you may ask. But I am afraid that this information is only privy to the ones closest to me and you guys know who you are.

The Weather Woman is one person who, as the name suggests very "weathery".(if there is such a word). Unpredictable and erratic like the weather, she may be hot today, cold tomorrow and God forbid, frosty even (yes, that is very possible even in out tropical climate) the day after. Oh, let me change that.... she may be hot one second, cold for the next two hours and back to warm again the rest of the day (if I am lucky).

She is basically a B I T C H !

B - Borderline Insane/Scizo
I - Irrational
T - Temperamental , Totally Toxic
C - C * * *, Cold, Conniving, Calculative
H - Harpie

She is :

a) a bring me downer
b) a die if you do, die if you don't kind of person
c) someone who does not have a social life but resents those who do
d) one who must have if you have but ok if she has but you don't
e) rude and obnoxious
f) someone who screams at people 90% of the time
g) a repeat offender who slams down phone on you but goes berserk if you do it to her
h) insecure
i) very quick to point out fault in others but don't admit to having any faults herself
j) selfish
k) penny wise and pound foolish
l) petty
m) a big bully
n) vengeful ( woe to those who scorn her!!)
o) unforgiving
p) suspicious of everyone and everything
q) paranoid

And my mission is to be rid of her in my life ! Or pray for a miracle and that God will change her.

As of now, I will have to grit my teeth and bear with her so I guess I will have to pray hard for patience, love and forgiveness.
