an email

Okay- so here's an interesting little email- between ME and Anna's girl scout leader.  Anna's b-day is Saturday:) And it's my turn to bring in snack- so I was going to bring in cupcakes, for the birthday celebration.  Mind you- I will be bringing in cupcakes for school-- and then on Saturday, for field hockey.  So it goes like so:  [she also mentioned something about siblings--- the leaders kids.

Cris,
      We now have 21 or 22 girls, Olivia S. just joined.  Sibling wise we have Christa's 2 boys (possibly), my son (possibly, hopefully not), Lyndsey D., but she should be having snack with her troop, we are walking with the 2nd grade Brownies (Patti's other Troop), I don't know if Kim D. is bringing Tori or not - I am not being very helpful am I?  Could you bake an extra dozen?  I am no baker and do not know how much more work this is.  I do not know exactly how many extra parents are coming yet.

So-- is this lady on crack?? She thinks I'm going to be baking cupcakes for siblings- some other mom- and her daughter [this lady is not a leader] and then EXTRA parents.  Is she fucking out of her mind?  Does she think this is a Birthday Party- and I'm the caterer???   First off-- the SNACK is a snack- and it's for the Girl Scouts!!! not every other joe-schmo who happens to be in the vicinity.  AND-- NONE of these bloody cows need a cupcake!  
Yeah, maybe I'm bitter.. i don't care.  Store bought cookie cake it is!!!
