My mom ended up deciding to use the Eat n Park gift card after all, so we went after her doctors appointment yesterday. I don’t know if she got me knew prescriptions for my CT scan, MRI, and blood test, but if she did she didn’t mention it to me. She briefly found the CAT scan and blood test one before we left yesterday, and lost them again within 30 minutes. I told her to ask the doctor for new ones since they only last about 6 months, though the time limit on the depends on the doctor. She said it didn’t matter since the blood test one was only 5 months old. She has no common sense at all. First of all, she doesn’t even know where it is again, and she’s not going to find it immediately if she does at all. And second, even if she did know where it was, I know I wouldn’t be going in a month. And third, that still leaves the MRI and CAT scan ones. She doesn’t think! She could have gotten all of them yesterday, but like I said, she didn’t even mention it to me. She’s going to the doctors again in a couple weeks to get her own blood test. If she doesn’t get my prescriptions then I don’t know when I will, because it’s been 5 months since she last went, and I know it’ll be at least that long before she goes again.

After we got home she went out to smoke a cigarette and when she came back in she said she had gotten a pain in her neck and was dizzy, and maybe she was having a stroke. And she calls me the hypochondriac. She’s always saying “maybe I’m having a stroke” or “maybe I’m having a heart attack.” So what if she got a pain in her neck and she was dizzy? I always get pains everywhere, I always get dizzy, and once in a while I get pain that goes down my neck and knocks me to the ground. Does that mean I’m having a heart attack/stroke? No, it means I got a pain and I got dizzy. You just deal with it until it passes, and then continue on. I’m not going to sympathize with her for things that are normal occurrences for me, and God knows she doesn’t sympathize with me, or else it wouldn’t be over a year since all this started, without getting any tests done. Besides her blood test she’s also supposed to get a throat test (she was supposed to get it the last time she went to the doctor) because of her acid reflux. It really damages your throat and can cause cancer. She says she’d rather not know. She’s so quick to die, but what would I do? I’m not capable of taking care of myself, if I was there’s no way I’d still be here. I’d love to be healthy, well, and normal, but I don’t get those options, it’s not possible for me right now. There’s another health problem I’ve been wondering if I have lately, depressions crazy sister. I realized it after watching a program on Discovery Health’s Psycho weak, and saw the people on it acting just like I do, but I don’t really want to talk about that right now.

Another thing my mom was complaining about in the brief time she was home was the air conditioning. It’s gotten chilly again in the past couple days and she thinks I should turn it off. I tried to explain to her that the air wouldn’t turn on unless it got above a certain temperature, but it didn’t sound like she believed me, she said it felt like it’d been on. It hasn’t. I don’t know what temperature it was yesterday, but it’s cold in here right now because it’s 58 degrees, not because the of the air conditioning.

She tried yesterday to call the electric company to get it switched in our name, but they said she couldn’t without putting down $300 first, because of her bad credit. Then that idiot she’s been staying with called and mention some place that could help. Now I don’t know anything about it, but my first thought was one of those “it’s my money and I need it now” kind of places, which I think is a bad idea. No company just gives you money. You either have to offer something as collateral or there’s high interest rates. There’s no point in letting her know what I think though, because she won’t listen to me or she’ll just start yelling. If she does do this and runs into any problems because of it she’ll just have to deal with it. She said she should have thought to try to put it in my name instead of hers, but I don’t have any credit either. Now this is why she put the cable in my name, because hers was bad and she said it would build mine up. So either she’s just too lazy to try, or she’s been destroying mine. Both are very good possibilities.

After a few hours at home that guy called again, and then she left to go over there. I was in the room so I heard her end of the conversation, and I don’t like it. That guy seems like the obsessive type. I remember the last times she stayed here (which was a while ago now) her cell phone was going off all night from text messages. Now, I don’t know if they were all from him, but most of them probably were. Then the last time we were out with Randy, it was happening again. Text message after text message. Then yesterday I found out he had called her earlier in the day, when she was in the doctors office, before he had called then. And she was making excuses as to why she didn’t pick up. WTF? Even if it’s someone you’re “friends” with, you don’t have to pick up the phone immediately every single time they call or text you. It wasn’t just the phone call today (and even the things in the past) that clued me in. When we were walking home, we briefly spoke about how the McDonalds next door was coming along. I mentioned I hadn’t seen it, since you can only see the parking lot from the back window because the landlord has a little office for his business back there that blocks the rest of it. So she said we could go past it so I could see it. But then she thought better of it and said that if we did we’d have to pass Carhops, and the guy would see and come out and I would have to meet him. What? Just because she walks by the place, he’d immediately charge out to see her, even though she wasn’t going in? She’d act like that before, whenever we’d pass the place she’d put her hood up so they couldn’t see it was her, and she said it was because they’d want her to go in/wonder why she didn’t. Just because you walk by a place that you know people inside doesn’t mean you have to go in, or that you should feel obligated to. And if the people are making you feel that way, you shouldn’t see them anymore, because they’re bad people. When you walk by a place and don’t go in it means you have something else to do and you don’t want to go in. You shouldn’t be harassed just from walking by a place. She is so stupid! So I didn’t get to see the new McD building. She said that guy has been asking when he gets to meet me. She told him never, and that’s right. That has nothing to do with me, and he shouldn’t even be asking because he has nothing to do with me. But since he’s obviously insane and controlling he probably thinks it’s his right. This is the guy who she knows went in her purse at least once, because all of her sleeping pills were gone. So besides taking her sleeping pills (as to why I now have an idea about) he’s gone through her purse to see what was in there, and could have very well been looking through her cell phone. She’s traded one disgusting creep for another! What is wrong with her?!

So that was my day. As for Eat n Park, it’s still a sad state of affairs. Even though it’s a family restaurant chain, it used to be really good. It’s sad to see this one at least doing so poorly. There was a little bit of the honey sauce on the sticky bun this time, but it was still room temperature and hard. Even the roll this time was hard and stale. We asked for the french fries on a separate plate since the dolts who work there can’t even get that piece of common sense through their heads, but the french fries weren’t that good. There’s no consistency with these people anymore. Except for the stale, low quality rolls that they’ve been giving the past few times. Like sometimes when you go the french fries are good and sometimes they’re bad. Then sometimes when you go you get really small (and sometimes the incorrect amount) chicken fillets, and this time they were huge. Then there’s their mashed potatoes. The last time I went and they were doing the mashed potatoes right, there ended up being a smashed tomato in the middle of them, in the gravy. I don’t know how a restaurant can change so quickly. I’ve only seen it happen once before, with Jamie’s, where the quality changed overnight when someone new who didn’t know WTF they were doing took it over and ruined it. Eat n Park’s a little different though, since it’s a chain. That doesn’t mean new people couldn’t ruin it, but there’s a certain way things are supposed to be done, and are done the same at all EnP restaurants except this one.
