I'm a White Trash Girl Who's Not Above Bowing to Political Pressure

Update:

I'm over it. You can thank Tristan.

If the Realtor Friend didn't want his personal business spread around, perhaps the Jackhole shouldn't have conducted it in front of his peers at a Trade Association Gathering.

Reap the whirlwind, as they say.

True enough, John, but the subject of the original post isn't the one responding. It's another association member, urging my husband to keep a shorter leash on me, lest I embarrass the association and my husband with my "white trash," "zero class" account of what I witnessed.

Meh.

I think it's obvious who the real "white trash" is in this story.
I admire your courage in the way you handled this, Christina-Marie.

The Gonzo Mama said...

Thanks, Joe. My intent, of course, is not to pit REALTOR against REALTOR. I was simply galled at the thinly-veiled threats against my husband's reputation.

It puts me in a difficult place. Do I call 'em like I see 'em? Or hold my tongue.

As someone who knows me personally, Joe, you know how hard it is for me to hold my tongue.

Joe Spake said...

No device is strong enough to hold your tongue.
No offense, GM.
