It's been nearly a week since Denise Albert unleashed her mommy rage onto the pages of the internet for all to see, and now she's back, apologizing, and burdened by a slight case of post-traumatic writer shock.
She says that last week's tirade, which she noted at the time may seem "aggressive or forceful," wasn't meant to make her seem "mean-spirited and entitled." She really just wants everyone to be nice and courteous. And clearly the best way to get this result is by penning an article about her self-described "useless anger," and sprinkling it with threatening phrases like "if you make me angry you will know it" and "Move out of my way"?
Anyway, she's sorry-ish, and really hopes that commenter Kojak isn't going to push her and her stroller into oncoming traffic.
