This particular neighbor rides around our road (just our road) on a motor scooter, just watching what goes on at everyone's house. It's a little freaky. So i'm over here at the house & i hear someone talking to my brother that isn't my niece. i'm curious. i go out. it's the wheelchair lady. "oh god..." SIGH. i come out and ask what time it's getting to be. Jason says, "Almost time to go." I know it's close to time to leave, that's why i said something. The neighbor lady asks, "well who's this young lady?" Jason says "That's my sister," I say, "hello. yes we've met." And then she starts asking me what i'm doing here, if i work, etc. i say, "I'm here helping with the family and yes i'm working." She asks "where" i'm working. I say, "You sure are a nosey lady. Now i think it's time you leave b/c my brother only sees his daughter two times a week and it's almost time for them to leave so..." and she starts muttering to herself and yelling at her dog as she passes her house! I'm thinking, yeah i know i was mean, but damn! the lady can't take a hint! wtf.
she stood at her fence one day when i was playing ball with ziggy (my brother's dog) and i waved at her multiple times and she didn't even acknowledge me even tho she was belligerently staring at me! it's creepy!
so i feel i was within every right to tell her what i said. maybe i was too harsh, but shit. she's creeping me out!
idk. jason accepted my apology when i did, but also said that she has a lot of guns in her house and that one time when jason was helping her husband move some things around, the husband said she hunts and has many guns and is an avid NRA member. so what, really? my dad used to be a member of the NRA when he could afford it! Anyone can own guns and hunt and stuff, it's the south, but that isn't gonna stop me from expressing my opinion. i'm an American, as is she, and we're allowed to have opinions. but she should not be allowed to parade around making her presence known and creep people out, especially by asking questions that are of no business of hers. what would she have asked next, "who's in that green car that i see come here" oh by then i would have said SEE YA BITCH, GET OFF MY LAWN. i mean, there are just so many things you say on either a first meeting or when you haven't seen someone in a long time. but these were questions that i felt were too personal. i mean, i have had stalkers at work. i am careful what i say to people and knowing that she is a creepy person ahead of time, i didn't want her knowing anything about me. i mean, we have a child molester in this neighborhood too! i mean, wtf. (i think he moved here after my brother did, not sure.)
But i don't know. i mean. i feel bad for being a bitch to her but she doesn't need to ask questions. i just wasn't in a mood to answer them.
This is just like when the Bible thumping people came to my dad's trying to solicit their shit. i was rude to them too, and i regretted being so rude but i mean, if you don't like the way someone is i'm not gonna be nice and listen to them talk. and i didn't think this lady needed to know anything about me. she even asked jason what hours he worked!! She's like, "so, you work from 1 to 11pm?" it's like...CREEPY!!
