I’ll admit it, I am brash and loud mouthed. I sometimes say inappropriate things but I have my limits! Today I was out shopping at Ross with about 10,000 other people. With my 4 year old in tow, I was on the prowl for bargains. Searching through housewares the only thing I got was something I wasn’t bargaining for.

” Yes she still drinks and does cocaine, I saw her smoking crack last week (pause) mm huhm well she goes back and forth about it saying oh I’ll keep it, oh I wont, oh but I want it. Then I see her ordering another drink, god she just needs an abortion”

Ok, I would tend to agree that something is going badly but do you need to be yelling about an abortion while rummentating over which curtains would go in your bedroom? I didn’t need to hear this, nor did any of the other 20 people who froze when you started squawking about it. I’m pro choice and people like your friend are exactly why (aside from the whole obvious no one is telling me what to do with MY body issue).

I simply went out to buy some new workout pants and maybe some new throw pillows. I did not want to leave my house and have to dodge my 4 year old who is wondering what an abortion is. Have some sense of decorum. If you can’t manage talk about it in private at least avoid broadcasting it to the world.
