How nice do you have to be to crazy people? I mean actual, certifiable nut cases? Our neighbor is so incredibly crazy and irritating, that I hide if I see her coming. And sadly, SHE'S A SCHOOL TEACHER, and out for the summer, so she's here all the time. The problem is, if I'm too nice, she wants to be here all day with this self-centered crazy talk, and I just can't do it. We can't go outside without her pouncing on us...
And as if the craziness wasn't enough, there is always something not quite right about her appearance that is REALLY hard to ignore. Like today, I guess she washed her hair because it was all fluffed up like... cotton pillow stuffing is all I can compare it to! (It was BIG! And not cute big like Texan women.) Or she has sunscreen dripping off one side of her face. Or she's poured cooking oil (no kidding) onto the top of her head. (why, you ask? I DON'T KNOW!!) Or the day she put on corpse makeup. (well, there was a mechanic coming over, after all) I've finally gotten used to the fact that she wears ONLY purple shirts and black pants. (shortsleeves for summer, though)
I don't know. I don't want to be unkind, but what's the rule here?
