I have a stupid vent about "save the cactus cafe" and a friend.
I'm annoyed with a semi friend of mine and I'm pretty sure it's my hormones.
I have a lot of friends that jumped on the "Save the Cactus Cafe" band wagon. I never joined the group on FB and never tweeted anything about it. Well the semi friend of mine asked me about it today and why I don't support it. I never said I didn't support it but I've never been or even know where it is so I have a hard time talking it up to others. She was kinda taken back and copped an attitude with me. I asked her where it was and what it was about. She COULDN'T answer me. She didn't even know where it is either!. Now, I've read the news reports so I kinda know whats going on but don't get me wrong I couldn't tell you anything about it that others don't know.
So here is where I want to know if I'm in the wrong....I copped an attitude back (probably hormones) to her and asked how she could be so adamant and support something she doesn't know anything about. I've received no less than 20 facebook messages from her about it among meeting invites to various things regarding it. Needless to say I blocked her from sending me things in the future however when I get home she sent me an email asking why I felt the need to "confront" her. I didn't, trust me. Yeah I copped an attitude but I didn't confront her. She has very thin skin and takes everything personally and a lot of us have to watch what we say around her. She's the most thin skinned self proclaimed activist I've ever met.
I will admit she rubs me and DH the wrong way. She's just a bit much at times and this isn't the first time she's done this. It seems like she supports whatever is in season.
I want to make it clear this post isn't anti Cactus Cafe, it's an annoyed at friend posting. I have no real reason I'm posting this other than DH went to the store becuase he could tell how annoyed I am so I could have some space. He's smarter than I give him credit at times. 
Re: I have a stupid vent about "save the cactus cafe" and a friend.
Your friend gets no sympathy from me either and I don't think you overreacted. I really, really hate when someone jumps on a popular bandwagon just to have a cause and then proceeds to send me message after message encouraging me to join their cause (with the implication that I am a Bad Person if I opt not to). But I'm a grumpy old woman that way.
Good for you for calling her on her crap!
....especially when it's on FB.
Don't get me wrong; I'm addicted to FB like the next person, but I'm really getting sick & tired of all the doppleganger/sibling/urbandictionary.com crap going around.
Good for you for sticking to your guns.

She sent you an email after the fact asking you why you felt the need to confront her?! Bwahahaha....
I thought the same thing the first time when I saw it on the news
Thanks ladies. I don't feel so bad about it since hearing what you said. My DH had to edit my email back to her but hopefully she gets the hint that while I love Austin and everything about Austin I don't need 100 emails and FB postings from her about why I *should* be head on with this particular cause.
sigh.
