I have a 90 year old neighbor who thinks she's normal
Sometimes even I think she's normal
when I first moved here she kind of latched onto me to be her biatch
you know be her what ever when ever guy
She never really considers the effort or expense she is asking of someone when she asks
And yet if you asked her for the same kind of favors she would have no trouble saying no
example
she had this oil string art lamp in her garage that she wanted to have cleaned (you know
the kind where it looks like it is raining
So she wants me to drive 20 miles each way to take it there and back and then do it again
when its ready.
So I tell her its going to take 2 hours twice (this is los angeles people
and 14 gallons of gas and there must be a better way to make this happen like a courier
or have these people who do the work come get it or ???
Then she had me doing all her shopping like 4 times a week so I made an agreement with her that I didn’t mind doing it but that I didn’t want to make special trips and she had to have cash to reimburse me for the groceries because I am on a tight budget plus I didn’t want to have to make trips to the bank and stand in lines just to deposit small check reimbursements
This was fine except she wouldn’t get out to get the cash and she’d be short sometimes. I always gave her the receipts so i suggested she write me a check for $200 or so and I would just provide the receipts and keep a running tally on the advance. this never happened by the way.
So the last time I went shopping for her I broke my own rule because I didn’t intend to shop that day She gave me a list of 10 things and said she had $30 and I said that should be doable based on her list well on the way to the store she calls me on my cell and add about 12 things that are going to push it over the cash she has on hand (which meant I couldn’t buy any groceries for me because I was spending my money on her and going to have to wait to get my own money back
so I told her that and I buy all the stuff and drop it off and put it in the kitchen and remind tell her that the extra stuff pushed it over the $30. bla bla bla
Anyway she found a large bill and I told her I was going to go out the next day and would get her $19 change and bring it then So about 4 hours later she calls and she is all worked up about her change And I said “I’m about mad enough to spend my time and my gas to go get your change so I can not deal with this weirdness ever again”
So I did and I’ve kept my distance for the past 6 months I figure “let her kids deal with it”
So I get a call from her a couple three weeks ago and she says someone has been in her garage and the door has been left open
so I tell her that there are only a few common garage door codes that are used and anyone could have opened it inadvertently and nothing had been disturbed in the garage so not to worry about it
Today I was having a nap and I get a call and I wasn’t going to pick up
Well she had called and accused me of opening her garage door and scaring her housekeeper and told me not to do it again
Then I get a call from my roommate saying that she called to tell him I was going through her garage and she was going to call the police
I’ve tried to call her 4 or more times but she won’t pick up
WTH?
I'm not going to smoke over it
Does anyone have bail?
