Re: Rep Retirement Thread 130: Revolutions Abound!
I'm really starting to hate going to the old folks home for mom visits. First, I show up and basically have to cock block my mom from the only guy living there that doesn't drool all over himself. The guy doesn't know what my mom's saying because she gets out five or six words before she starts whistling a tune.
Now this old lady comes up to me to start some insane conversation, and I play along a little, being cordial. But then she starts hitting on me, hugging me, and patting my gut. The worst is that she's not the first to do this to me there. Good grief, I'm cougar bait and fossil bait now.
Then another woman comes by and says to me, "Do I know you?" I replied that no, she does not know me. Every time I show up there she asks that question. Finally she wants help getting back to her room because she's tired - every time I'm there she starts on that line. I walk her back to her room only to have her tail me when I start to leave. Of course, my mom's walking with us the whole time, and starts getting a few of the old bats worked up about a party in the basement. The place doesn't have a basement. So they're opening all the bathroom doors, looking for the stairway to the basement.
After all of that, my mom finds the old guy in the chair and starts petting his shoulder. I guess this happens a lot. My mom's an old hussy, but not a very successful one. That's when I left. All told, the visit was only about 20 minutes, but it's all just too much to go for longer. It's like a bad sketch comedy every time I'm in there now.
