She has continued her out-there-comments and assumptions, and below is a compilation of the most recent.
Without further ado... ENJOY!

"[In reference to the feral cats she feeds and waters...] Would you believe the water bowl FROZE SOLID? I guess if the little animals are thirsty they can just lick snow, right? That IS what they do, right? Just lick snow?"
"I was told that even though I do not have THE INTERNET {emphasis mine} I can still get information and stuff from my computer. Is that true?"
"I guess I did not need two separate cell phones to keep one charged all the time for the car. I changed my plan and my other phone was supposed to be no good after midnight on the 12th, but I waited a few days and called it to make sure that nothing sneaky was happening."
"[After lots and lots of snow during a recent snowstorm] Well, it is 2pm and still no paper. That is ridiculous. The TV does not show anything but crap and now no paper? I am now not connected to any news at all!"
"[Speaking of the neighbor behind her that has resumed dating and has a live in boyfriend] ... How long is it before you can 'draw' against a spouse's Social Security Benefits? Ten, eleven years? She better hurry up and marry him, he has worked all his life and put away some money and would leave her a nice income."
"I just noticed on that guy's RV thing, that all the windows are tinted except the front windows. I first thought someone had broken out the windows. Why would they tint the back windows but not the front ones?"

She has also been a broken record on:
- Her concerns for a hoarding acquaintance who has dementia...
- "She could forget to feed her dog or it could get away from her and die! That poor little thing! I know how it is to have no one to help you or see about you..."
- "She is going to die, or someone is going to take advantage of her. And that daughter? She does not deserve anything when she dies!
- Commenting on her neighbor's live in boyfriend...
- "He has been complaining of not feeling well and his stomach hurts. Why... I bet he has cancer!"
- "He seems to have a lot of money to throw around. Wonder what [his pension and job]pays?
- Commenting on various neighbors offering to take her to the store since the hoard-mobile is snowed in the garage and she has been unable to leave the place for nearly two weeks. She makes a big kerfluffle of them calling, speculates on motivation, and refuses their assistance, then wails to me that she is running out of pet food, food, and medicine.
- She finally called the Area Office on Aging and got a ride to Walmart.
- She now has a new wonderful stranger that was appalled she is on her own the way she is.
- She has been fixated on any child maltreatment case in the news, and has been simply ruminating and obsessed on the death of Phillip Seymour Hoffman and the death of Shirley Temple Black.
- She keeps asking weird and random questions about the protocols of the place that I work and the types of clients we serve, and gets annoyed when I will not engage.
- Obsessing about the weather. EVERY OTHER BREATH IS A COMPLAINT. No one is really all that thrilled right now, but complaining does not do any good as far as I can tell...
The bulk of her verbal diarrhea is complaining about how she cannot get out and do what she needs, railing about all the injustices she has been dealt in her life, complaining about her health, and refusing for a second to be part of her own solution... and attempting to be an 'askhole' and keep asking the same detailed questions on the same topics that she has no intention of acting on.
Calling her is painful. And again, this is not going to end well. It cannot.
Hope something here made you laugh a bit. Have a great weekend!
Well, I guess cell phones ARE sneaky? tee hee
ReplyDeleteI like the "Askholes" <- like it a lot.
Lisa-
ReplyDeleteI wish I could claim credit for the term 'Askholes'... I swiped it from a meme on Pinterest (which I saw in the 3 seconds I was on it... All that collecting is a bit triggering!) She has it down to an art form!

Oh- and update on the neighbor's significant other. He had gallstones. A LOT of them. And had surgery and is home now, doing fantastic. NO CANCER ... Holy worst possible conclusion jumping Batman!
