I'm Not Always Heartless...

but I didn't give her money: February 18th.

So this isn't really a snarky post. I mean, clearly she's homeless. She smells kinda like old shoe leather that's gotten a bit moldy. I know this because she frequently sits next to me. Also, she's crazy. One day, she was talking into a portable radio like it was a cell phone.

But a while back, I read a story in the paper here about a homeless lady. The article talked about this woman sitting in the cold, refusing to come in or accept any help. It was pretty sad. I think the woman in that article is this lady.

Just keepin' it real. It has got to suck to be homeless.

Oh, that's her "cell phone" in her right hand.

  1. Met her. Very down to earth lady. She was working one day panhandling on Aurora but she said she wasn't staying, because no cars were stopping to give change. I don't blame her.
