I should have stopped and apologized when I ran into the woman in front of me and jabbed her in the head with the pointy thingy on the brolly, and I did say sorry as I passed.
However, the reason I ran into the woman in front of me and jabbed her in the head with the pointy bit of my brolly is because she was so busy talking to her friend and fussing at her baby in the pram that she stopped dead *right* in front of me. I had no where to go but up her back.
And I’m sick of it. I’m sick of people not paying attention to the people around them. I’m sick of people taking up the entire pavement as they walk 3 and 4 abreast, ignoring people saying excuse me as they try to get past. I am sick of the self-centered bullshit I see all day, every day all over the place.
Be aware people. Be aware of who is around. Yes, of who might be behind you when you stop short. Who you are blocking with your SUV style pram.
I’ve heard that they’ve found the centre of the university and you know what? Its none of you.
And maybe that accidental jab in the head with the pointy bit of my brolly will be a Pavlovian reminder to this self-centered bint to pay attention to the world around her next time. But I doubt it.
less coffee my dear!
