I half expected her to shout "I don't like orange, I don't like orange!" as I pulled the highlighter out of my desk. I'm convinced that some people try to cover up crazy with makeup and book clubs. They think we can't tell they're a little "off". It's like that Bonnie Raitt song but even creepier. They stand just a little too close, stare just a little too long, pull a knife on you over a nice spaghetti dinner. There is always the possibility that they don't have a clinical problem. They could just be from Podunkville and have REALLY bad social skills. I've seen many an Italian dinner end in a brawl. To really make a fair and accurate distinction, more time and attention would have to be paid. However, it isn't worth life and limb to do so.
Whether podunk or crazy, you can't hide it. We can tell. We can see it as clearly as the bright red lipstick covering the pages of your new Oprah approved book.
