Owning Your Friends

Work has been busy this week - two funerals so far & a third tomorrow.
One thing that really stands out in the funeral home industry is family dynamics. Some families are divided into camps; this half won't have anything to do with that half, some are united against just one other member...sometimes it's it's justified & sometimes it's not. Ever heard of someone stealing memorial money from their own grandma's funeral by pretending to deliver it to the church it was intended for?? Yeah - it happens; take all the cash & deliver only the checks. Brilliant! Nobody will EVER figure it out! *rolls eyes*


One time, a long time ago, while half of the family was still at the hospital waiting on the funeral home, the other half was breaking into mama's house and taking whatever they could carry. I find it hard to believe that people like this only live here, but really now! The ratio of normal to wacko seems to be skewed somehow. There's just a really high concentration for such a small town.

There's a guy who walks around town talking to the houses. A while back, my cousin had a guy - probably 22 - come into her house and look through her cupboards until he found a bag of Oreo cookies then took the bag & went & sat down on her couch and ate them all. Then went into a rage because they were gone...his nick name is Cookie Monster. Apparently that's what he does when he gets loose from his guardians - steals cookies. There's a lady in town that walks around with a baby doll & compliments your car, your hair, your kids...super sweet. Unless she is pissed - then, she swears like a sailor and beats up cars. I'm wondering if the Culligan water filtration system we have installed is enough...maybe we should get bottled water....lol

I have a group of friends who are all playing that Friends For Sale game on Facebook. Kind of a weird premise for a game...
They keep buying me from each other and I'm not even playing, lol. But, (shhhh!!!) I've crossed over, hehe. I'm just now looking things over, so I haven't figured it out yet. Looks a little more complicated than Farm Ville, lol! Looking at my stats though, I'm pretty popular, hehe. I've been bought at least 8 times today, lol. Not bad for not even playing the game, lmbo!

  1. What can I say....I like being able to keep your nick name I gave you! It is kind of strange though.
