[05] NoJoMo 19 in MoMoMo

What is one event that changed a strongly-held previous opinion you had?

I read through the prompts before and this one ties into the next one. But, I will talk about the actual event.

I fully believe that chronological age doesn’t mean as much as people think it does. I have younger friends that are more “adult” than I am, and I know older people who act like petulant brats.

One night, my girl-group of best friends and I went out to karaoke.

There was this chick who was a huge alcoholic. Seriously alcoholic. She had to be constantly drinking and she told us she was able to get Disability for it. I went to her house a couple times and she actually has more booze in her entire house than actual food. That was the first time I’ve ever seen a mini fridge in the bathroom.

Anywho. She was trying to caress my friend Kit’s hair and Kit told her to leave her alone. Chick got pissed and I got mad and told her to just leave us the fuck alone. She tried to get in my face and I shoved her hard.

Kit grabbed me and told me, “She isn’t worth it.” I didn’t understand because she was one of the people who would throw down for me. But when I looked over at Chick, it dawned on me that it wasn’t about finishing the fight, it was about realizing there was no fight necessary.

Since then, I’ve only seen Chick a handful of times, and she never remembered that night. I would be polite to her, but that’s the extent of it.
