so I started cleaning the cupboards mostly as a thing I wanted to do
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:51 PM
partially because they're a shitshow that has been bugging me for years now, and partially because I wanted to make a list of food so that i could figure out what we have, start cooking and the like

Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:52 PM
i mean, it's mostly just me being petty and annoyed
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:53 PM
because my grandmother suddenly came in here like "Are you going to keep cleaning?"
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:53 PM
James: I was going to take a break, and make cookies after lunch today.

Her: Well, you could do both...
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:54 PM
and then copper interrupted us and she left it alone
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:54 PM
but there was just, like.... something about her tone that grinded on me?
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:54 PM
like this was just expected now
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:54 PM
but this isn't, like, a task she gave me. this was something i decided to do on my own.

it's like you do a thing or start a thing and then the people around you expect further the thing

you do a thing out of the goodness and annoyance of your soul and instead of thanks and praise you get 'why aren't you doing this faster'

like i do plan on cleaning on the freezers and whatnot, but, again, same reasoning

Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:58 PM
you were doing a good thing for you and she got her attitude all over it and Ruined It

and it sucks when that happens
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:58 PM
but she's been trying to mention me cleaning up her disastrous tupperware situation and such, and i'm like..... maybe you can deal with that
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:58 PM
i'm just here for the food
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 6:58 PM
because the food is the important thing

Your annoyance is valid.

Wed, Sep 23, 2020 7:09 PM
yeah if she wants to be a hoarder she can clean up her own shit
sentient gate
@mutedtempest
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 7:09 PM
you, however, use the food so it makes sense that youd want to clean it
sentient gate
@mutedtempest
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 7:10 PM
and it's shitty of her to be all her about it
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 7:30 PM
i don't know if that's what she intended for it to be, but she did come up to me while i was making lunch to offer to clean the secondary cupboard space (where the dog treats and cookies are) while i did tupperware and, like..... i'll accept that
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 7:30 PM
it makes it less annoying
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 7:30 PM
although i will say, yeah, there is a lot of hoarding happening on these grounds. two whole ass buildings besides this one full of it
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 11:53 PM
nevermind, scraps of good will gone
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 11:53 PM
she went to go pay the water bill or something, and then came back to immediately start yelling at me
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 11:53 PM
first because apparently maisy peed somewhere not easily visible from where i was baking
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 11:54 PM
you know, the dog that even my grandmother admitted will sometimes just immediately squat and go no matter where or what nowadays
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 11:54 PM
and then to yell at me because how dare i..... tell one of my ex-coworkers who i was on friendly terms with that i was cleaning out cupboards??
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 11:55 PM
my grandmother literally told the conversation as:
Ex-Coworker: So what's James up to?
Her: Who knows!
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 11:55 PM
it apparently enraged my grandmother a lot that people, like..... check in on how i'm doing???
duck bastard
@trilies

duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 11:56 PM
anyway she did an immediate 180 to use me as a venting board on how she was screwed over by the bank, and checked in on my baking, etc
duck bastard
@trilies
Wed, Sep 23, 2020 11:56 PM
like she hadn't started immediately yelling at me for dumb bullshit

If they're checking in on you they're not paying enough attention to her i guess
duck bastard
@trilies
Thu, Sep 24, 2020 12:05 AM
I suspect it's more like some sort of embarrassment
duck bastard
@trilies
Thu, Sep 24, 2020 12:05 AM
because gasp! what if the talk about town becomes that i'm some jobless layabout scoundrel!
duck bastard
@trilies

when it could be really easy for her to just go, i don't know
