Someone acted out at a gala I was out and got mad because I talked to other people - like that is what people do, especially if you had not seen them since last year. So she jumped in a picture that I was in, pushing down on my shoulder with all her weight so she could jump in the air and be taller and coming up from behind so I had no idea she would do that. I am 70 years old - who is that stupid? I dislocated my shoulder and have been in pain ever since -anyway, if I prayed, and I am an atheist, it would be for her to get the help she needs, How sad people can be so oblivious and not realize why she has so few friends, one less now. She needs help.
