Chopping Spree

crazy margaret came by today. here are some of the things she said.

“i don’t go out at night durin’ a tornader.”

“they kicked me out and now all they got is a preacher with a gimpy revival.”

“well jaimie, what would you do if you gave your sister money cos she was down with surgery and then now she won’t give you nothing?”
“margaret, i told you to stop giving money to your sister.”
“well what would you do?”
“i’d tell her to kiss my ass!”
she gave me a real dirty look at that.

“and now their “king jesus” is out of jail and they think he’s gonna save ’em but he’ll be back. he ain’t no good.”
i’m not sure who she’s talking about. i don’t think she’s talking about the Bible Jesus. but, you never know with crazy.

“i don’t see what’s wrong with gettin’ food stamps. ain’t no differnt than my check. some call it a crazy check but it ain’t. i’ll sue you for callin it a crazy check. i ain’t crazy i seen two psychiatrists back in nineteen and nighty-eight. they said i was just fine.”

“i got an attempted murder out on me. ever time i leave my house i know he’s waitin’ on me. it’s a police man and he rides a bicycle. i came home early one day and there he was in front of my house gettin off his bike and when he seen me comin’ you never saw such surprise on a man’s face before.”

“all i’ve got to turn to is the wind.”

“they come over and ask me for money and then they tie into me and give me all their demons and then i puke all night. i puke up all their demons and they don’t care they don’t give me nothin’.”

“thanks for the coke, jaimie.”
“you’re welcome.”
“i’ll bring you one this week.”
“keep your cokes, margaret.”
“naw, you come home one day and there’ll be some cokes and you don’t say nothin about where they come from you just say thank you.”
