All over a turkey burger

[1mamacita]

This morning I left my house pissed off and it all started with a turkey burger.  It's amazing how the smallest things can create the biggest issues.  Last night I made dinner, 4 turkey burgers to be exact but since we had a really late lunch, neither my husband or myself was hungry.  I wrapped 3 of the turkey burgers and turkey bacon strips up along with the buns and placed them in the fridge.  I then made myself a sandwich with all the fixing and wrapped it up for lunch the next day.  Everything was good until...

I woke up this morning late ( I really need to get more sleep), I'm rushing out of the house as usual and I run to the fridge with my son hanging off my hip to grab my lunch before hitting the road to daycare and work.  I start off a little puzzled because I don't see the wrapped sandwich but I figure it's in the back of fridge so I look a little deeper only to find a half eaten turkey burger on a plate that has been poorly rewrapped and now dry because it was sitting all night in the fridge with no covering. 

NOW I'M PISSED!!  Not because the turkey burger has been eaten, but because there were 3 other burgers with bacon strips neatly wrapped on a plate in the fridge along with some toasted buns neatly wrapped on another plate in the fridge.  I'm pissed for a few reasons:

1. Why would my husband eat the burger that's already prepared and wrapped, especially when he knows I was making it for my lunch today???  He just couldn't get any of the other 3 burgers and buns and make him a sandwich, he had to take the already prepared one. 

2. He didn't even eat the whole burger but only took what looked to be about one good bite and put it back.  Now, he took the time to put in on a plate but then he half wrapped it,  so...

3. Why would you not wrap it back up properly?  Not that I would have wanted it  after he bit off of it but any open food in the fridge not properly wrapped will dry out which is exactly what this burger did and now that's a waste of food, and groceries are too expensive to be wasting anything right now. 

4.  He had the nerve to tell me that it was still a fairly good burger and to go ahead and take it for lunch...ARE U KIDDING ME??  Why would I want a half eaten dry to the core burger?  What I wanted was the burger I MADE for my lunch this morning.  It would have been nice to run to the fridge and seen my prepared lunch waiting for me, especially since I was running late already and had absolutely no time to make another sandwich.

5. He really thinks he did nothing wrong and I really wanted to knock him down when I saw him looking out the door smiling at me as I was putting my son in the car like we are just a Cosby Show Family.  Bill Cosby wouldn't have eaten his wifes lunch!!

Now this small turkey burger has conjured up so many other emotions because I sped out of my drive way and up the road like a bat out of hell so that he would know that my screeching tires meant how mad I was.  Then on the drive to the daycare I stared thinking about just how much I don't really like his mother or father or brother for that matter but I only put up with them for his sake and also because I don't want any stored up hatred to send me to hell so although I don't like them, I make myself love them (and that my friends, is a very hard thing to do).  Then I started thinking about what I really want to say to them and those thoughts lead me to start thinking how late I am and how it's all my husbands fault because the least he could do is get my son dressed in the mornings for me to save me a little time and maybe I wouldn't be running so late.  And those thoughts lead to other thoughts and now I'm pissed off about other things that I normally wouldn't have given thought to had he not eaten my turkey burger but the thing that really pisses me off is...

6.  He just got on my case this weekend about spending so much money eating out and how I really need to cut back.  Now how am I suppose to do that if he's eating my lunch?  So guess what everybody???  I WILL BE BUYNG MY LUNCH TODAY AFTER ALL.

Thanks for listening.
