reminiscing about cleaning grandmas house. grandma had dementia. it was bad. she would never let us clean for her & her house was So Nasty. pepsi all over everything. big mess. ok. so we devise a Plan. in which mom takes her out on the town for a while so dad & i can sneak in and clean. you ever take an elderly woman with dementia and the absolute most godforsaken knees out shopping? it is not a fast process. so we figure we got time. we're cleaning. we're scrubbing the kitchen floor. about halfway done. soapy pepsi water everywhere. whole big production. i just happen to look out the window and i see that stupid goddamn little red car pull up i go THEYRE BACK. my dad thinks im joking bc they been gone maybe 15 minutes no Way are they already back. Theyre Back. water everywhere. i gotta go out & stall while my dad quick pulls that shit together so she doesnt go inside & become enraged. turns out my mom never took her anywhere. she just drove her around until she got so mad they had to come back. i was like Why The Fuck Didnt You Take Her To The Store!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Driving Her Around Only Infuriates Her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everybody Knows Driving Around Infuriates Her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i was SO mad to this DAY i give my mother shit for that i cannot believe
