The crazies are not just on the internet....

I ran out to Publix today to grab a few quick things for dinner the next few days since DH is traveling and WOA!!  So as we all know EVERY publix perking lot is one way all around, at least every one I have ever been to is. So I pull into the parking lot and am going up the aisle the way the arrow points and this lady comes FLYING down the wrong way. So I honk b/c I am unsure she is going to slow down and let me pass, as I had the right of way. So I stop and let her pass b/c she is driving like a bat out of hell. I pull around and park and she confronts me yelling and cursing as I am getting Colin out of my car. She was telling me there was no sign telling me I was a total B**** and to f*** this and f*** that...I was absolutely dumbfounded and just trying to ignore her b/c I had C with me and I was just wanting to get away. She keeps going and calling me a zillion names. She threw her car into park and threatened to get out, to do what to me physically I have NO IDEA. I simply told her to leave me alone and that I was letting her know she was going the wrong way. She wen APE and kept coming at me so I got out my phone to call the police. I publix employee came to help me out. He copied down her plate and called the police, which I didn't want to deal with but he called them to the store and I had to give them my statement.  I was very upset that she kept cursing and causing problems for no reason, and especially that she kept going once she saw I had a baby with me. Completely ridiculous but the police were very nice about it and said they will file a complaint against her. Who know if anything will come of it but at least people who saw what was going on tried to help me out. People are just INSANE!

  • What a nutjob!! I probably would have started crying right then and there. I'm glad they called the police though.

  • WTH is wrong with people?  As I was coming out of a parking lot yesterday, apparently I didn't move fast enough to suit the guy behind me.  Ummm the light had JUST turned green- pardon me for not gunning it out into the intersection!  So he actually PASSED me in the middle of the intersection.  Nearly took off my front bumper and then rolled down the window and flipped me off.  WTH???  Oh, and then we ended up going the same direction and got stuck at the next light.  So where did all that road rage get him?  An extra 6 feet ahead of me... nice.

  • Kanye says:  "Yo, Lauren I am really happy for you and I'll let you finish, but Kathy Bates had the best parking lot confrontation of all time."

    Sorry, couldn't resist.

    Glad you and Colin are OK. That person should have been arrested for oh, so many reasons.

  • JHC, what an ass.  I'm sorry you had to deal with that with your LO right there.

  • Lauren - that is absolutely insane!  I hate that I am like this, but these days I just hate people.  It seems like everyone has lost their damn mind.  It seems like more and more people have no problems showing their ass and have no descent, common courtesy.  I am sorry that happened to you - especially with Colin.

  • Oh man this makes me so mad!! What kind of animal DOES that? I"m sorry, Lauren!! 
  • Holy CRAP!!!  :(:(:(  Poor you and C, to have to deal with that nutjob.  Maybe she just ran out of her meds or something...still no excuse whatsoever to be that awful to anyone else, particularly when there's a small child witnessing it.  Good for you to get others involved and call the cops; I hope they lock her up ASAP!

  • oh my goodness!!  I am so sorry that happened to you!  What a crazy person, and awful to expose Colin to it also.  So glad the Publix employee came out and helped you, I'd have been terrified.

  • OMG.  How scary and fricken insane!  I'm so glad you guys are okay and that she didn't advance any further, what a freak.  Ugh, how sick is she to continue after seeing you with your LO?  Stupid nutbag.

  • OMG.That is crazy. You did the right thing though by ignoring her.
  • Wow, I can't believe how much she just kept going. Can we say anger management? Her response was just a little bit out of proportion. So glad you and Colin are ok.
