Wretched Taco Bell Lady...
in the little town of Laie there is only a few places for fast food... they include McD's, Pizza Hut and where we frequent the most... Taco Bell...
Well, there is this lady there who is a spitting image of the flight attendent on the movie, "Meet the Fockers"... the one with chopsticks in her hair, and big bug eyes, and a fake sickly sweet voice, but really she's kinda cold and wretched.
Well, the girls have a hard time controlling themselves inside Taco Bell, so I am on them like crazy, telling them so hold still, stop jumping, sit down... and the place is seriously like 10 ft x 10 ft big... really small... and there is only about 5 tables to sit at... so it is pretty crazy to take them there... anyway...
We always get water cups and usually jayden has to fill hers up herself and does a good job, however, one day, she was given a cup by the worker and ran away before I was done paying and couldn't run after her (after all.. she only went like 4 feet away) but before I grabbed her she had put her cup up to soda and not the water... so I went over and took it away and explained that we didn't pay for soda so we can't have soda and I did explain a little bit how it was stealing... so after this marvelous parenting by mua... the wretched taco bell lady comes over to my 3 year old and says, "that's stealing"... and lecturing her... DUDE!! I was so erked!! i had already delt with it, and dumped out the soda and like she really knows what stealing is, it was probably the first time I talked to her about it... so I got water and don't know what my face did towards wretched taco bell lady... but i'm sure it was a stink face... and we sat down and ate... but I was just like furious inside!
Another time we went with Chris and the girls still just have this problem climbing and jumping on the seats... so they were climbing and we grabbed them and made them sit down.... again... we had already delt with it... and wretched taco bell lady... like 2 minutes later, chimes in from across the restaurant lecturing my kids in her sick, fake sweet voice... "don't climb... bla bla bla" Chris's face was just stunned!! I was trying to turn around and say, "ya, my husband already handled it - thank you!" but I didn't... and meanwhile I could tell Chris was just grasping at something clever and mean to say, but didn't get it fast enough... So we both were irritated and sat there looking at each other saying... dude, "wretched taco bell lady!!" just in disbelief... i know it doesn't sound like a big deal... it must just be the way that she talks or her eyes bug way out of her big head. I seriously don't mind people helping out with my kids, especially when I can't get to them or don't know what they are doing... but it erks me so so BAD!! when I am actively parenting, or dealing with my kids and then someone else chimes in and tells them what to do or tells them what I already told them... don't people have that little thing in them that stops them from interferring when the parent is already there? I thought there was like big time BRAKES installed... maybe I just let my kids run wild and bonkers and don't realize it... but I'm thinking not, cause both times with wretched taco bell lady I had handled the situation, my kids were under control.. and then comes the additional lecture from a stranger... totally bypassing me... argh!!!
So, we think its funny...

I've had moments like that... you have to train yourself to say, "Thanks, but I'M the mom!" You'd be surprised at how quickly most people back off. :)
The story is awful (rotten woman!) but the way you told it is hilarious!
OH my goodness, this is hilarious!!
The worst is when you are at Wal-mart and some lady just walks right in front of you in line...while the kids are getting antsy and I am ready to pull that lady's hair!! lol! Gotta love LAIE!! hehehe!! My husband lived there as a kid too! He has some fond memories..lol!
