I think maybe the full moon has coaxed all of my creepy ex's and their equally creepy spouses out of hiding. It started yesterday. It was the worst day I have had in a very long time, so I told Aaron I wanted to go out to dinner. Fair enough, we head to Applebee's.
We get seated, hear the specials, light a cigarette (me) and....cue the waitress. "My name is Mandie, blah blah blah". Hmm, she looks SO familiar. And she has a look on her face that she is thinking the I look familiar. She leaves us be and I start racking my brain, when a long buried memory of the "crazy wife" episode surfaces.
Oh God. The woman who caught me in bed with her husband is our waitress. Uuhhh, not good. Now keep in mind, will you, that her HUSBAND told me they were DIVORCED. Not so. We'll call him Jackass No. 1 (JA1).
Let me take you on a trip through my past. I met JA1 while bartending in my home town. We got to talking and ended up hooking up and hanging out. Red flag #1-he lived with mom. I chalked this up to the fact that he was, in his words, "divorced". Stupid me, but when someone tells me they are divorced, I literally take that to mean that they are, in fact, DIVORCED.
So anyway. One morning (I had stayed over). We are sleeping when we all of a sudden we hear pounding on the door and his mom yells "JA1 Mandie's here!!!" And up the stairs she came. And again, stupid me, I thought he would go talk to her-no, she shoved past him and came at me. There I am with bed head, still half asleep, in my underwear and his t-shirt.
She starts screaming at me about how I'm screwing a married man and when she finally takes a breath I look at him (he looks like a scared dog with his tail between his legs at this point) and I calmly say, "well, I'm glad someone filled me in because, he told me you were divorced". We talked for a bit and she left. And then I left. And despite some pitiful attempts to get me back, that was the end of that.
Sitting in Applebee's after realizing who she was, just beyond uncomfortable. Neither of us ever acknowledged that we recognized the other but we got a different server and skipped desert. Of course I fill Aaron in-he's heard the story before. His reaction? "she seems a little psycho. Yeah. She is.
Then I get a call from a friend who is in Shawno (way the hell up there) and she just ran into another one of my ex's....but that's a whole 'nother blog.

Oh girl you should have hit the door (and JA1 when you had a chance)! I'd hate to think of her having any kind of access to what you put in your mouth. Either way. (Just kidding. I mean the food.)
I've been very lucky in this department!!! So far anyway I've never "ran into" any ex's or jerkoff exfriends! All besides my husbands ex showing up at his mothers funeral. Yeah she had to roll her eyes at me even then!

It sounds like there were no episodes at least. That's a good thing, hopefully you won't hear from ex's again.
