[::..A Tribute to Dog Lovers? Naaa......::]
I was blessed with a really good day today. We had an Atrial Tachycardia case, and I was prepared to stay till midnight. I was warning everyone that we are going to stay till late. But the brilliant doctor was spot on. We ablated the tachycardia in 7.1 seconds. I was soooo happy and so impressed. Cases like this makes working worthwhile. All of us were happy. Mo allowed me to go home half an hour earlier. So I quickly changes and left the hospital. I decided to take a different route today, just so I know my way round Kings Road. It was good, Sunshine everywhere. Cool weather. Then I came to the worst part of my walk....
The River Thames.
This is where I normally encounter lots of dog poos. This is where I normally encounter Wayne and Stan on their bicycles to work. This is where Mo and I walked on good days......And this is always where I GET APPROACHED BY DOGS of all sizes and shapes.
For those of you who do not know me, I am Farah, the dog phobic. To some people, they know me as the girl who rather get knocked down by a car than approached by a dog. I just don't do dogs. I'm terrified of them. I hate their nature of coming to you and wagging their tails and licking you body parts. I just can't stand it. It scares me. Their saliva scares me, their tongue scares me, their teeth scares me. Everything about them scares me. I am so scared of them, I think I am going to the GP to get a letter. I am always close to tears when a dog approaches me.
On most days, the English dog lovers are really polite and very accommodating. Most of the owners will call their dogs when made aware of my predicament. Some nice ones even apologise if their dogs approach me. And I would say it is my fault, coz I am just tooooo scared of dogs, and they would walk away smiling and waving their hands. But today, I encountered, a Bitch in her own right. One who behaved worse than a dog.
From afar I saw her two bulldogs running about the pavements of the river. I have no problem with that. They can run anywhere they want, but please do not come near me. I know dogs are animals, they do not have brains like human, or like their owners. But most dogs in London are very well trained, and they will do as they say. But this lady, she has no intelligence at all. She was shouting at me that it is a public place and that if the dogs want to come to me, they can. Shouting at me. WHO SHOUTS IN A PUBLIC PLACE EXCEPT FOR A LOONY?????? No they bloody well cant. I have a right to my own personal space. I pay tax to walk on the pavements of London.
You know what, I was thinking so hard what to reply her royal bitchiness, but i walked away. Trembling still from the encounter. And I pray to Allah so Allah will teach her some humility and compassion to others. Of course I could wish the worst for her, but it is not worth it. Not at all....
For those nice people reading this entry, sorry for the anger, sorry for the bad words, sorry for everything. I just needed to pour my heart out coz I am just so lonely in London.
At the end of this entry, I am still scared of dogs. That fear will be with me till the end of time....Sometimes I wonder, what is the real need to have a dog in this world?
