Whatever Comes To My Mind

I went to the Social Security office today to have the condition of my social security card removed. I never had any problem with it before until recently. One of my employer wants to have it updated even if I have submitted a copy of my citizenship certificate. The lady said that it wasn’t a valid form of identification. Mind you, there is my picture there and my signature and for crying out loud, I am already a citizen but she wants a different one. I have told her twice that if it wasn’t good enough then I am not interested anymore. She still emailed me that they will wait for the said updated SS card until May 6. So Ryan encouraged me to go ahead and get another one anyway.

I got there around noon. All three of us ate lunch early and I gave Frankie a bath before I went. As usual the parking space was very limited but thankfully I was able to get into a space. I waited for 2 hours which I thought not too long considering the amount of people that were waiting there. I was just anxious because I need to pick up Frankie and Papa to get something at Kohl’s. Well, we were all so quiet when all of the sudden a lady came in and sat among us because she needed to get her social security check. I was seated all the way back when I smelled something nasty. I thought it was the people that were next to me but it was coming from the front. I noticed that the people that were seated around her started walking away and started standing on the side. I never thought that the smell can travel that far but it did. I can’t even describe the smell. All I felt was I wanted to throw up. A lot of ladies at the back of me were also complaining. I thought in the beginning there is something wrong with her mentally but one lady who sat right next to me said that she is homeless. A lot of people were making fun of her and it is so sad but she was just so stinky. She was so bad that the security guard had to give her the priority so that she could leave right away but he didn’t make it too obvious though. He was also spraying Lysol all over the place because a lot of people were covering their noses. I hope she gets bath someone soon or in a shelter. I heard she is not staying to one. She spends her ss check in motels and then when she is done she goes from places to places. How sad.
