Welcome to my nightmare, the Skeksi has struck again.  We have a lovely, I guess you could call the worthless bag of skin that occupies her desk a person, ANYWAY!  There is an individual that comes here, is paid to work, but her primary function is to create drama, and pretty much keep the "shit stirred" as it were.  I know this, and yet I get lulled into a false sense of security until "WHAM!"  I am again slapped upside my head with the ugly truth....NEVER TRUST A SKEKSI.  Pettiness was a strong suit among the Skeksis.  I have known/known of the Skeksi for a long time.  Unfortunately she is friends with Bitchbert's wonderful MIL, and as wonderful as MIL is, there are times that she makes me nuts.  Enter Skeksi.  Skeksi used to work in the same area as the MIL, she now works with me because we seem to be the dumping ground for all of the undesirables that it would take too much work to fire, so they just transfer them to us.  Some of us are here by choice, working off bad Karma, but the ones that end up here because of past transgressions, really make it not worth chewing through the straps and being mildly homicidal most of the time, I could probably get the sentence reduced because it was a mercy killing. But I digress...

Skeksi was bad and now is a member of our Happy Family.  I just found out the other night that the Skeksi went to my MIL and told her that I was talking about her...so good times, she now gets to piss me off and its a two'fer, since we work for the same organization, we have contact both personally and professionally.  It came back to me that Skeksi had "overheard" me and only told MIL "as a friend."  Is it me or doesn't that really mean..."I was eavesdropping on a conversation between Bitchbert and ? and she said A,B,C because she was venting to her friend and because I'm an evil, unhappy, malevolent old "has been" I thought I would tell you what was said so I can hurt your feelings and make you mad at her".....WHEEEEEE.  I know that I shouldn't talk about the MIL, but my friends are here and they are the people that I vent to and work through my issues (OK, some of them that it doesn't require copious amounts of medication and therapy to conquer) with and in turn they try and help keep me relatively sane.  If what I said would have somehow benefited my relationship with the MIL or not have been something I said in anger/frustration and wouldn't have hurt her, then I would have said it to her.  I would personally question the intentions/motives of someone that would deliberately set out to hurt your under the guise of "friendship."  So now there is family drama to go along with the work drama.  WTF?  So there it is boys and girls, the lesson for today, "NEVER TRUST A SKEKSI!"  Especially if they can't keep their boobs out of the frosting.  Any suggestions that wouldn't net me a sentence of 25 to life?
