(34,049 posts)inside a wine shop that had just opened. she either worked there or owned the place.
my obviously pregnant daughter wanted to go in and look around (for future reference) and struck up a socially distant conversation with this woman. we were all wearing masks.
i was getting nervous about being inside this little store so i stepped outside for about sixty seconds (hoping to give my daughter the hint of "let's get the fuck out of here" )
when i went back inside this bitch had her mask under her chin and my daughter had moved back away from her by several steps. they were still talking!
i interrupted the conversation and said: "would you please put your mask back on"
she said: "i have asthma"
i said: "so do i. and my daughter's pregnant, so put your mask back on"
she did. grudgingly.
in retrospect i thought i should have asked her if she needed a hit from my inhaler.
i love what you said. wish i would have said that too. i was just so pissed off--i couldn't even see straight.
