re: "i'm tired...."

I am so OVER people responding with "I'm tired" to a question like "how are you?" Literally everyone is tired. Adulthood is tiring. And I'm not trying to say "i'm more tired than you because I'm a parent" everyone's entitled to feeling how they feel, it's not a contest. But in the context of, let's say, my relationship with my significant other... I do NOT want to fucking hear "I'm tired" at all anymore, especially when I know how busy and active I am vs. how he is, and that he kept himself up stupidly late on a work night for no real reason.

NO MORE TELLING PEOPLE YOU'RE TIRED!

I met a woman on a first date, she sheepishly said, "I am sooo high," as the eyes were rolling in the back of her head - as if someone injected her without her knowledge - and I said, "No problem, have fun," and turned right around.

Get out.

Honestly, Monday after being out for KATG the night before, I did it all - got myself ready for work, got kid ready for school, made breakfast for her and a batch breakfast for myself for the week. Made us lunches. Took us to school and work. Did work all day, went on a mile and a half walk for lunch. Got kid from school, came home n changed and both of us went to the gym. Did my weight lifting class, came home and made dinner. Then kid bath and bedtime My significant other, to give him some credit, did work later than typical that day otherwise he helps out with more things. But when I've been running ragged all day the last thing I want to hear is "I'm tired" out of anyone's mouth.

Now people reading this hate me. Good. Your hate gives me power.

When most people tell me they are tired I would like to laugh in their face.
