This one resthome resident has some kind of memory and language processing issues with age, and so a lot of times she's out of it, or just improvises off of the last thing or two that you've said.
The other week she was saying how nice dinner was, so I asked her if she had had the chicken or the fish, and she said the chicken, since she doesn't like fish.
"Why don't you like fish, [her first name]?", I was like.
"Well, I used to be a captain," she began, and then she told me how once her ship sank and she was on it and there was this little window in the ship and she was inside looking out and there was all these fish outside the window looking in, and ever since then she doesn't like fish.
