Friday Confessional

Before I begin with the confessing I first want to say a fond farewell

To Glamazon...{you thought *I* was saying good bye huh? pshh as if!}

She has decided to say goodbye to her blog and I for one will miss her.

So go visit her and wish her happy trails.

Friday Confessional will continue as usual, but it will be missing the musings of the one and only Glamazon Mom.

Now...onto my confessions...

I Confess...

I have a potty mouth sometimes.

I don't really fly fast and loose with the explatives on my blog.

You know I like to keep it family friendly here.

But

I Confess...

The other day when I was enjoying a sunny afternoon bike ride.

I was followed by a tweeker chick on her bike insisting that I was "holding".

*ETA Tweeker=meth addict*

She followed me yelling that she "knew" I had some "smack" and that she had "some gas cards to trade for it."

I told her over and over for about a block that she was mistaken and that I had nothing.

I Confess...

I was kind of scared.

I mean she was old and scrawny, I was pretty sure I could take her, but she was also a tweeker,

I watch enough TV to know sometimes tweeker's have super human strength when they are high.

I Confess...

I rode right past my own house because she was still following me.

I couldn't shake her using my nice calm words.

Finally I decided I needed to speak HER language.

I Confess...

There was NOTHING lady like OR Family Friendly about it.

It was UGLY. It was growly. I spit when I spoke it. Teeth gnashed. Nostrils flared.

She finally said, "OK, OK, take it easy!"

Then rode off in the opposite direction.

I Confess...

I felt like a total badass.

I scared MYSELF a little, even.

Then I rode my bike home and resolved to not go for another bike ride alone.

Not until we live in another town.

Because seriously.

Stuff like this NEVER use to happen to me.

Until we moved here.

I Confess...

I have a potty mouth and I KNOW how to use it, when needed.

Yep.

I agree. At the end of the day, knowing how to use it when needed is what matters.

Ixy said...

Unfortunately some people just don't get it unless it's hard-core. I have a huge potty mouth, but I'm trying to reign it in for my daughter. She can't talk yet, but I don't want her first words to be dirty haha!

Jen said...

Not only do I have a potty mouth...and know how to use it. I LOVE it. I love me some swearing. Not in front of the kids or the in laws...but yeah, pretty much anywhere else! There's nothing quite like a good f-bomb!

Becca said...

That is kinda a scary story - and now I'm scared of you even more!!!

swirlyagelessmind said...

I too can get a little crazy when I feel threatened, thing is, I don't cuss...I just don't. I can speak another language however, and it creeps English speakers out when I shift to my native tongue when I'm angry.

Jolene said...

Good for you, you Bad Ass! ;) I cannot picture you being a bad ass at all. LOL

Jolene said...

Mamarazzi...so sorry, not sure how my April VLOG ended up being posted. Will you kindly remove #7 and pardon my moment of stupidity? Thanks so much.

laurie said...

you go girl!

A Randomlicious Blog for the Soul said...

WOW!! I am amazed at that story! I think I would have driven to the police station LOL! You have some serious lady balls!! I have to read over your story a few times to make sure I understand cause stuff like"holding" and "smack" I'm not used to those words! haha

Jen said...

I admit it, my favorite word is the eff word....I cuss worse than any sailor! LOL

Lauren said...

You are braver than I am. If that happened to me I might have started crying. haha.

Erinsgobragh said...

Yup I'm trying to rein in my mouth too. It's gotten worse since we moved in with the in-laws as kinda a release from stress thing but Sam's getting older and I will not have her be using bad language!

Amber said...

I love riding my bike and I'd never get to do it if I waiting for someone to come with me...but I'll admit I pass some sketchy people on my rides!

I try to control my language, but I drop "douchebag" at least 10 times a day.

~Shari said...

I must confess that I had no clue what a tweeker was. I had to go look it up. Darn rural communities!

Wow, that really was a scary story. Just wow.

PS - Potty Mouth? Ha - I drop that f-boom toooo many times a day. LOL I do sound like a sailor most days.

Megan Harmeyer said...

You go, girl!! Sometimes all you attract with honey is bees...bad, Africanized bees. LOL Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do. Happy Friday!

Conni said...

ha ha that is king of funny. My sister in law won;t walk be herself because a bunch of crows(birds) chased her down one day!

Glad to know you will be conitueing the Friday confessional

Lisa said...

Hahaha! Too funny! So glad you were finally able to get rid of that wonderful friend you had following you. :) I'm pretty sure we all have somewhat of a potty mouth!

allstarme said...

Get it, girl! :)

VandyJ said...

Kinda scary--but at least you showed her. Girl power and all that. Glad your OK.

Amy said...

Oh wow! I'm glad she ran off and didn't get meaner! Good for you.

Ashley said...

Holy cow that's scary! But go team Mamarazzi! You don't mess with her. :)

Jessica said...

Wow! A little scary! Sometimes those words do have their place and that's definately one of them! I try to not curse but sometimes a few will slip out.

The other day I accidently cursed in front of my 14 year old nephew. I was embarrased ... I think he thought I was a little cooler. LOL.

Jessica said...

Totally didn't finish my thoughts before submitting!!

So sorry to hear you are losing your host buddy for the Friday Confessionals! We'll miss Glamazon!

Dazee Dreamer said...

Good for you. Sometimes you just need to use the words that they understand.

Emmy said...

Okay that is a time that a potty mouth is completely forgivable and even acceptable. Holy cow-glad she stopped following you.
And yes you need to move girl!

Christy and Adam said...

I would just like to say....Your awesome. LOL!

Brandy@YDK said...

that sounds nuts!!! i would've been scared too

Kimi said...

OMG I would have peed myself. For reals. However, I too have a sailor mouth...sometimes on my blog too :)

Kate said...

Wow, that is scary. You definitely need someone with you, just safety in numbers.

Glad you are safe and sound. Oh, and potty mouth is definitely understandable in that situation. If anything you may have been restrained. ;)

Clandestine Road said...

You're f*in amazing! (Heehee)

We have a great deal of addicts around here. My husband volunteers at the Needle Exchange (it is for disease prevention and it is often a first step into rehab) and we both have some scary tweeker run ins. I bet you had a huge surge of adrenaline to Lance Armstrong it home!

Melanie said...

I wish I could have seen you take on this old hag. Score 1 for Mamarazzi!! :)

K Lind said...

I confess that I had to Google Tweeker. How scary is that?! Glad you stood up for yourself. Sometimes I have a potty mouth too.

Annette said...

Y'know, sometimes the only way to get people to back off is by using their language. I've seen it time and time again with others around me, not only swearing, but tone and body language. It's really interesting to see.

If I lived near you, I'd love to go for a bike ride with ya!

Hope you have a great weekend!

Sarita said...

I work at a restaurant and employees in restaurants are notorious for their mouths. Well being the crazy Christian that I am, I have asked them to stop. And they have! Well, we just learned that it is illegal in our state to cuss in an establishment that serves alcohol. See, I was just keeping everyone legal! However, I have had to drop 1 or 2 and when that happens, people back up and pay attention because they know that I am upset!

Shawn said...

I have no idea what a Tweeker is but if she scared you than I'm out! I would have been freaked as well, good call on not letting her know where you lived!

Lourie said...

I confess....I totally had to google tweeker. hahaha. I have a potty mouth every now and then...like last week when there an estate sale on my street and I couldn't even get into my own driveway. Glad you were safe and acted badass. YOu go girl!

Camie Rae said...

I love it! Also that is terrifying. Smart that you didn't go home...I probably would have and not even thought about it. Yikes!!! You're awesome!

Red Stethoscope said...

Ahhh! This confession was sort of terrifying! P.S.-I didn't know what a "tweeker" was. I'm glad that you escaped because yes, drugs make people have superhuman strength!

Beth said...

Holy cats, how creepy!! I'm glad she didn't physically accost you or anything. Ugh!

But good for you for showing your claws. Sometimes we gotta bring them out and sharpen them a bit, just to remember that we have them and can, at any time, choose to use them. :)

Mrs. S said...

OH sad day Glamazon! I'll miss you!!

That's kind of scary about the tweeker! Yikes!

Impulsive Addict said...

Stupid tweekers. They are everywhere around my HELL too. They usually hang out with the swingers. And they are usually missing teef. I'm so proud of you for scaring her away. I'm glad she doesn't know where you live. Those tweekers are ca-razy!

I confess that I'm super duper happy that the Friday Confessions are ALL YOURS now! =)

Bridget said...

Good to have the potty mouth in reserves when you need it! As my son would say, You Are Ninja. Don't necessarily understand what all that means, but it's a high compliment he assures me ;)

Connie Weiss said...

WHAT??? That is crazy! Glad you got rid of her.

I taught my kids the word A**hole yesterday because I was spitting mad at some kids that were using my SUV as a ladder.

I need to move.

Johanson Family said...

I've never heard of a tweeker.. that's slang for druggie or a cooler word? You go girl! People sure have a way of pushing the right buttons!! Proud of ya!! I wouldn't ride my bike either anymore. hah

MiMi said...

This makes me laugh. So. Hard. lolololol

Carrie said...

People are crazy! Glad you put your potty-mouth to good use!

Miss Angie said...

Sometimes you just have to get down and dirty before someone takes you seriously. You are BAD A!

You are so bad. I feel cooler just knowing you.

That is freaky scary though. Wanna come use your intimidation tactics in my neighborhood?

I have a creeper that just moved in down the street. For real - I would love someone to scare him outta here.

Jill said...

Nothing wrong with having a good potty mouth.

You sound braver than me. I would've probably crashed panicked, crashed my bike, cried and begged her to go away.

becca said...

j.shriner designs said...

I think you need to have a potty mouth to get through tough situations!

Forgetfulone said...

I would have been so freakin' scared! I'm impressed you got rid of her! And I confess... I couldn't think of anything to confess today. I'm sure there's plenty, but I just couldn't THINK of it. Lame, I know. End-of-year-fried-brain!

Lauren said...

Hiiii! Its my first time linking up. This is such a good one!

But, yay for you for standing up for yourself! And you scared her away! Good job! lol

Lauren said...

Kelli @ writing the waves said...

Yikes!!! How scary! You go on with your bada$$ self! That is crazy! Glad to say I haven't had that happen myself...I'm sure I look suspicious with two kids constantly in tow. haha :)

Dysfunctional Mom said...

Ha ha, you go with your bad potty mouth!
I'd have been scared too.

shortmama said...

Go Mama! Go Mama! You scared the Tweeker! Go Go Go!!

Myya said...

Oh my gosh I am so impressed! How freaky super DUPER freaky!!! As far as the whole potty mouth thing though... Ohhh MAN do I have a potty mouth. I am trying really REALLY hard to do a little reforming before I head South. Believe me it is tough with a hubby who also has a potty mouth. Is there hope??? LOL.
