Trick Or Treat?

So at work we have this really funny Vietnamese lady in A/P department. She is the source of so much unintentional comedy. It's really amazing the stuff that she comes up with. To give you just a taste of what she is like, I'll tell you this:

• We once had a microwave that super-heated all the food in the kitchen and one time it burned popcorn. The smell was so bad that the microwave had to be removed from the kitchen and was completely discarded. Not wanting to pass up on a perfectly good microwave, she took it home. Rather than think that it was left outside the backdoor because it was unusable, she took it home, tried it, and then returned to work the next day complaining that it smelled like burnt popcorn.
• People will often leave unwanted snacks or things they just want to share with the entire office in the kitchen. One time it was dozens of bags of little airplane peanuts. She was seen later that day hoarding those peanuts.
• She used to take the cold sodas in the refrigerator that are for the entire office and then hold them to her bare-skin on her forehead, her neck, and then couldn't understand why people would complain about it because she would put them back in the fridge so that they could be used. After all, you don't drink the outside of the can, right?
• For birthday celebrations we get breakfast burritos for the entire office on one day out of the month. She will take any excess burritos, usually being at least several.

So this lady is pretty much a riot, but the best part is that she is completely oblivious to her normal behavior being completely absurd. Come Thursday, the day after Halloween, I overheard some coworkers mention that this same lady trick or treats. Yes, she's older, in her later 40s. And she goes trick or treating with her Auntie, who is about 56. The following is an account of her conversation with one of two of my favorite people in the office, Becky. Here goes:

Kathy’s Halloween was tragic and she has a small cut on her lip that “hurts a lot”. It hurt so much that she almost was unable to tell me her trick or treating story. Her Aunite is so stupid, because she had a “designer costume”. Auntie was a rainbow ghost. The ghost costume was so beautiful, it “look like wedding dress.” Kathy had to walk behind her auntie and hold the train to the dress. Her auntie wanted to go to this big “rich people’s house” because she wanted good candy. Kathy told her not to go there, because they have big dogs. The big dogs came out and scared kathy’s Auntie, who then knocked Kathy over while trying to get away from the dogs, and Kathy sustained a tragic lip cut. That was only the 4th house they went to, so they only got 3 pieces of candy. Addendum to the story—Auntie climbed a tree to get away from the dogs. They were big black dogs, “twin dogs” cause there were two of them.

The best part about this story is that the lady talking about it has a completely straight face the entire time and the only emotion she's feeling about the whole thing is annoyance at not having been able to get more free candy, and that she cut her lip.
