i've been doing my job for a long time now. and, almost everyday i shake my head and think to myself, "i can't make this stuff up". here's an excerpt of a conversation that i had yesterday.

Me:  ok, here are your pills you need to take with your breakfast.
Confused Old Person:  i need a banana.
Me:  well, you ate all of your banana. would you like me to get you another banana, or do you want to take your pills with some pudding?
COP:  just get me 2 bites of banana.
Me:  alright, hang on. i'll be right back.

I go looking for an extra banana, don't find one, grab a pudding from the fridge, go back to the room.

Me:  i couldn't find a banana, but i found some pudding.

I look at COP who is scraping the bottom of the butter cup with a spoon.

Me:  what are you doing?
COP:  huh?
Me:  what are you doing with the butter?
COP:  i'm getting the last bite.
Me:  but, that's butter. are you eating the butter?
COP:  huh?
Me:  the butter. are you eating that?
COP:  are you calling me fat? when you get my age, you don't worry about eating butter. ooh, is that pudding? i was saving that for later!
