So I went to the local laundromat to get my stinking laundry done. I was drying my clothes and this chick comes, she puts her clothes down, breaks out her macbook and gets on the interweb, and then tries to load her laundry into one of the washer machines. She proceeds to look for her wallet and then she goes “oh no…shit I left my wallet at home..no, no , no.” She stands there and then makes a phone call to one of her friends, I am assuming it was her boyfriend because how she was talking to him. She tells him that she has no time to go home and how she really needed to get at least two loads of laundry done or else she’ll be screwed. I looked at her, while she is still on the phone. I reached for my wallet and pulled out my last $5 bill and handed it to her. She looks at me as if I were from another planet, as she clearly debates as to whether or not she should take the money, and then says “no, thanks. I cant take that” I am like “no, really, take the money. It looks like you really need to get your laundry done, that should be enough for at least two loads.” she then looks at me and tells me “if I take the money you are not getting anything in return, not even my phone number” I looked at her and said “you know what would be really nice….if you were to just take the money and stop looking at me as if I am expecting a blowjob out this act of kindness” Then she looks at me as if she were offended. I put the money down on top of her laundry bag and walked away….as I walk away I looked back and said “dont bother thanking me by the way, I have just lost any desire to speak to you. In fact the thought of it makes me want to vomit. Happy valentine’s day. Cheers.”
I woke up today and I thanked the fact that I was able to roll out of bed and walk on my own. There was no other reason for me to be happy, and I thought to myself “my day can only get better from this point on” in fact I think like that everyday. I dont get it!! are people happy to be simply alive, with no handicaps? How miserable is your life? Nevermind that regardless of how miserable your life is there will always someone whose problems will make yours seem like a fucking walk in the park. Shit like this makes me wonder if my “do random acts of kindness for anyone, even strangers because it might make you feel better” attitude is even worth keeping around anymore. Oh yeah, I could’ve used those fucking $5 to buy my goddamn lunch; however I sit at home hungry, just waiting for 2pm to roll around so that I can go to class. How is your day?
