Went to get my allergy shots today (which went fine). Then went to the mall since I was very close and wanted to pick up some stuff (not much, but as I was already nearby--). Parking was...interesting. Parking should not be interesting. I was following another car down the row I wanted to park in; as expected, he pulled into the first open space. And since he was driving a rather large SUV, he had to back and fill to get the angle he needed. I sat behind him, waiting, when someone parked to my right started backing out, right toward my trunk. I hit the horn; she kept coming. So I leaned on the horn and held it until she stopped and pulled forward. There was no way she was going to get out of that space without hitting me (unless I'd tossed it in reverse, and moved pretty quickly, too, considering where I was sitting relative to her - a misjudgement would have had her in my passenger door, and I really preferred the back of the trunk).
Hopefully once she realized, it gave her as much of an unpleasant moment as it had been giving me. At least if she had hit me, it would have been damage to the car and aggravation; I'd be surprised if an impact at that speed even injured me minorly (unless I was unlucky and it triggered the airbags). Still, I'm quite glad not to have found out what the results would have been. Bleh.
Made a couple more stops on the way home and now have groceries, a couple new t-shirts, and a replacement new purse. (My new purse, bought on Monday, had a snap stay snapped - and rip off one of the pieces it was supposed to snap - after three days. Not only did I return it, I got a different purse this time. Here's hoping it stays together!)
Apple thinks I am a big meanie now, I think. I have chased her out of the space with my scanner - again, I do not want you sitting on the scanner, cat! - and I also wouldn't share my lunch with her (chicken legs, so no freaking way, kitty). Babe, with a lot more common sense, is napping on the top of the cat stand and never seemed to care about my lunch.
