Mixed Up Sleeping Arrangements

The witch moved out of the master bedroom and into the guest room saying she was "having problems with her husband".
The kids were then 4 and 7, a boy and a girl.
The little boy, 4, would want to sleep with Mommy every time he had a nightmare, which was every night, and so he would come to the guest room every night at 9 or so and sleep there with her. The little girl would feel left out and would join them too. At 2 a.m. the husband would wander in, pick up the little girl, put her down on the bed in the master bedroom, as he "hated to sleep alone."
10 years have passed by and this remain their routine.
The witch tells everybody she meets she has such a beautiful relationship with her husband because they have separate bedrooms, and encourages every one to live exactly the same way. "Rajah Rani sab aise he rehetein hain. Koi apne pati ke saath nahin sota hai."
She laugh and laughs at any one going through a rough patch in their marriage.
Hurting kids is even funnier to her.
The husband seems like a decent soul, so no worries, I hope.
Looks are deceptive, so there are no guarantees in life.
The husband his his own circle of friends and prefers to attend social functions without her.
The witch is often spotted hanging out with fools or crooks...

This is the most 'open to investigation & interpretation' case of possible witchery I've heard of in a while. Too many fuzzy lines but I'll try my best to narrate it. A couple of Indian kids working in Singapore I think, at the time, met and decided to get married. They got married in India and returned to work in S'pore, later that year took two months off to spend a month each with both sets of parents in India.
Month one was great. They were with her parents. Met all their relatives. Month two started out fine but the girl got majorly sick week 3 and stayed another 2 weeks to recover while her husband returned to work.
This girl, 27 at the time, had never had one health issue all her life, and now she had every gynecological problem in the book and out of it.
It wasn't so bad she couldn't work but it did have a terrible emotional impact on her as they wanted to start a family.
Her gynecologist, in passing, suggested her husband needed to be tested for 'infections' . There was lots of crying on her part, protestations of complete faithfulness oh his part, and testing. He was clear.
Over a period of time the doc started asking her questions only her grandma would have thought to ask - Do you have enemies? Did any body ask you too many questions about your marriage? Do all the women in your family have kids? Has any other woman in your family experienced troubles of a similar nature?
Then it hit her. Every one of her SILs has a story like this, with minor variations.
I'm happy she she is safe. It has been a few years now. She recovered, just had twins, and mother and babies are doing well.

Witch,"Americans are the stupidest people in the world."

Witch called me with the greeting,"Americans think they are the mostest and bestest people in the world. They are the weakest people in the world. Look, they got kicked out of Vietnam, then Iraq and Afghanistan. You are the stupidest people in the world."

Me,"(confused silence)".
It was my birthday, so I was expecting to be greeted with a "Happy Birthday", which never happened. Instead, for the  umpteeth time, I was being criticized and laughed at for being "a stupid American".

I was stupid enough to ask,"Have you been watching the Olympics over the years? The Americans win all the time."(I had been busy researching the Olympics for a writing project so it was the uppermost thing on my mind.)

Witch,"Have you lost any weight?"

Me,"No, I've gotten fatter."

Witch,"Ha ha ha ha ha. When are you coming to India."

Me,"In a couple of years."

Witch,"That is too far away. Come now. Ticket ke paise bhejoon?"

Me,"No."

Witch,"Now days there is Skype. Use Skype."

Me,"I don't wanna. You know I've asked this stop now."

Witch,"We can't do anything in India. Tell the police there."

Me,"Ok."

******************************************

ONE WEEK LATER

Me,"You told me to report it,  so I did."

Witch,"Ya ya, your American police is so smart, they will find out everything. Nobody is going to believe you."

Me,"Ha ha ha ha ."

Witch hung up real quick.

Talent Acquistion

The witch owns and operates a widget factory.
She employs a driller, a custodian, a delivery boy, 3 women on the assembly line, and one driver.
That all looks legit until you look a little closer.
The delivery boy does her grocery shopping and sweeps the floors.
The driver is her husband's masseuse, and he cooks all their meals.
The driller packs and ships the widgets.
The custodian is their IT guy.
And one has to wonder how 3 women can man an entire assembly line and make the company a profit.
The couple call themselves "industrialists".
This has been going on for years.

When You're Under Surveillance by The Coven ...

Funny things happen when the coven is 'watching you'.
They respond to 'messages' you never send them,
 mention incidents that happen 10,000 miles away from them,
 and they know what you were wearing yesterday,
 and you haven't met them in years.

The telephone is a witch's best friend.

Why do they spend all this time and energy watching someone ?

The Most Common Witch-isms

You can call anybody fat, lazy, or stupid and get away with it, for a while,
 since, really, what are the parameters here?
A witch will always call you those three things, and add "liar" to the list,
 just in case you stand up for yourself and contradict the witch.

Caduceus

http://bansheearts.com/portfolio-items/caduceus/

The Caduceus is the symbol of the healing arts worldwide.

Tiresias is rumored to have gone blind for having watched a couple of snakes mating, and of having  been turned into a hermaphrodite who could foretell the future.

I like to think of it as a happier event.

It refers perhaps to that moment post a mid-life crisis when you realize you are complete, that you have wings, that you are healed, and that you have control over how your life turns out.

Let no witch tell you any different, for witches gain much power in this world by posturing as the only known charmer of snakes, who can gaze at a crystal ball and tell you you are doomed and that it is all your fault, and that you brought it on yourself, that it is only fair in God's world that you must suffer to pay for your imaginary sins, like being genetically deformed because blah blah blah blah .....
