Drama Mamma
Drama Mamma and I are sort of back on speaking terms. Whatever.
Apparently she's doing a last harrah with hanging over at the neighbors before they ship out after selling. At the most 30-60 days and she'll have no excuse to come down the block. The taxes on the yellow house are too high to make it Section 8 (which is probably why the landlord kicked the renters out), the white guy doesn't talk to anyone, nor does the guy below him; Sandra doesn't like that crowd; the Hispanic family they are friendly but I don't see them hanging with DM; the Howard students are a heavy Jesus-loving crowd and ... nah, I don't see them hanging with her either.
