Local Woman Hospitalized After Pumpkin Spice Overdose

NEW BEDFORD, MA—According to reports from St. Luke’s Regional Hospital, local woman Ashley Gibson was hospitalized Tuesday when doctors determined she had overdosed on multiple items containing toxic levels of pumpkin spice flavors and aromas.

Gibson, 34, was rushed to the emergency room when passersby discovered her slumped over the wheel of her minivan in a Starbucks parking lot. Witnesses say the mother of three was clutching a venti-sized pumpkin spice latte in one hand and a container of pumpkin spice creamer in the other, and there was evidence of multiple recently consumed pumpkin spice baked goods on the passenger seat and the floor. According to sources, three others who assisted Gibson were also treated for secondhand exposure to the van’s potent pumpkin spice air freshener and the box of pumpkin spice potpourri candles discovered in the back seat.

My lovely housemate has made an offer on a house, which means she may be moving out if it's accepted.
She's lived with us for nearly 6 years, and I'll miss her terribly if she goes.

But at the same time I'm really happy for her, that's she's living life and moving forward.
I feel conflicted.

Luckily, the house is only 2 streets away.

But it won't be the same as her being here.

She even used to vacuum for me because she knew it turned me into a mental case.

I guess she has become like family by now.

My lovely neighbour will be moving sometime within the next year and I am not looking forward to it for the same kind of reasons - I will miss her dearly but at the same time will be glad that she has a smaller more manageable home to live in.

She is such a wonderful human being and has helped me out a few times, she has an abundance of empathy.

I also have some marvellous chats with her grandson, who also happens to have ASD - even before I was diagnosed we had a connection. We sit in our chairs and chat for ages and laugh together at a gate between our gardens.

Change is never easy as we want to hold on to what we know.

I will have to make the effort to go see them all and make sure that connection remains.

^ I feel like I haven't fully appreciated how wonderful this person is and how much she has added to the enjoyment of my life.

I would love for her to meet a nice young man, but alas, 99% of young, single men in my area are idiots.

The only way to stop theft imo is never leave your bike unattended

don't let the geographical distance affect your relationship , it it will just take a bit of effort from both parties to stay friends , I lost my only friend because I moved 10 mins away and both of us did nothing to meet up , just drifted apart ( I'm pretty sure he was on the spectrum too )

^ unfortunately, or fortuneately, the house offer was knocked back.

Damn, I give up on spelling.

^ Could this be the opportunity to let her know how much you value her?

This has made me think about my own relationship with my neighbour and what I can do to show her some love.

aw! for your friend. Yay! for you

Now you can tell them how f*****g wonderful they are and the feelings it evoked when you thought she was moving

Ive done stuff like that too in the past, unable to maintain friendships.
I seem better at it now, but it still seems fake, do you know what I mean?
Like, I've really got to work at being a decent kind of person.

I think she knew.
I've actually been snivelling about it, overemotional little twat I am.

I have no friends ( except my GF ) but I think I know what you mean about being fake , you know what needs to be done but it doesn't come naturally so it feels forced.
You must work really hard here then because I never would of guessed you were a cnut

Eventually I'm going to buy a lifelike robot friend/companion. Even though I know it will probably murder me in my sleep.

Make sure it's 3 laws safe.

Have you seen the sleep robots?
Like little beans.
At least they have no arms to strangle you with.

My best friend is my dog.
