Dear Crazy Lady,

When I first saw your hot pink cheeks, I naturally assumed that you were suffering from eczema, or possibly even the heartbreak of psoriasis. "That's unfortunate," I thought, "but good for her, venturing out in the world instead of hiding inside." Then I got a better look at you, and I realized that you had painted your normally brown skin a nice shade of white. But you didn't stop there. Oh no. You followed that light application of grease paint with a thorough coating of pink lipstick (what was that shade? Blink Pink? Cherries in the Snow?) to your forehead, cheeks, nose, chin, AND lips. Naturally, I assumed that you must be out of your fucking mind, because most people don't greet the world with hot pink faces. But your behavior seemed normal enough. When you took the guitar from the rack, you didn't bang it on the ground, or attempt to assault your husband with it. You used our rest room, and you did not smear shit on the walls. You didn't even shout or twitch, or cuss at me.

I just want to thank you for showing me the softer side of crazy. It was a nice change of pace.

Love,
reb

I think her variety is my favorite kinda crazy. Gently crazy I'll call it.

Lori. Scary Lori. Remember that time she beat him with a champagne bottle? That bitch was crazy. And she did over-do the blush.

I'm not sure, but you keep slingin' praise like that and my ego would probably let you slide with quarterly visits.

Just you wait... One of these days you'll see her on the news.  Some kind of news helicopter camera angle shot of her in the middle of the street with a limelight aura illuminating a maniacal smile while she pulls a .45 out of her pants with a three foot barrel on it.  Just you wait...

The catalyst? They discontinued her favorite shade.

Hey... I got Cherries in the Snow... hehehe
You gotta love those ladies. My mom was one of them, except
her thing was false eyelashes. She'd put those things on
and they'd be stuck to the middle of her eyelid, nowhere
near her actual eyelashes. One side would be flopped up,
the other side flopped down. She didn't care...she had her
goddamn eyelashes on and she was going about her business...
talking back to the voices and such.

Your mom sounds charming. My mom liked to wear shorts so tiny that her buttcheeks showed. And her psychosis manifested in the form of imaginary S.W.A.T. members on the roof of our trailer.

With my mom it was the FBI. She called those dudes constantly talking about 'the computer papers said...Gary McCormick is going to kill me.' Never did figure out if Gary McCormick was a real person. Of course, she'd shut off all the lights and make me hide under the table any time the ghetto bird was looking for someone on the loose in the 'hood- (nightly) and other various and sundry delights.

I felt pretty positive about it. I observed crazy, but wasn't singed by it's fiery flames. Plus, it made me think about war paint and tribes on the move. I don't know what the fuck I'm babbling about.

I saw an 80 yr old woman wrapped in aluminum foil and had a green painted face.  She was driving a Lincoln Towncar...a Lincoln Towncar?...tells me she wasn't on her way to Burning Man...she was on her way to the Mothership.

Wonder if it's the same old lady that led Dallas police on a 45 minute chase because she was running late for her hair appointment.

Did she have a husband with her?  Or were you just comparing her to other ladies who swing guitars (that they don't own) at their husbands?

She did have her husband with her. Nothing strange about him, except the fact that he moved at turtle speed. Maybe even slower.

Well, sane people refrain from adding that much paint to their face in the hottest month of 'Texas Summer' to avoid having a huge smear face by 9am....but if you want to question it then FINE but I am going to have to take Rebel's word for it.

Mostly because of the shoddy makeup job. It was streaky. And there was something in her eyes I could feel.

It's nice to run up on some non-shit-smearing crazy once in awhile!

Or maybe she isn't crazy. . . maybe she's just so fashion-sophisticated that we can't comprehend her.

It could be, but fashion trends are a little slow to hit East Texas. I prefer to think that pale face stole her fire water and she's on the warpath.

"the softer side of crazy"

That should be the title of Courtney Love's first recording of old standards.

Nice writing--I'm laughing my ass off here!

I like your crazy lady.  much better than I like a lot of the people who are 'not crazy'.
I had a teacher at school who use to be, shall we say, enthusiastic with her make-up.
She was really sweet.  I wonder if she moved to Texas?

She was by far the most pleasant to deal with nut I've seen in a long time. And she didn't speak for the entire time she was in the shop, so I'm not sure if she had an accent or not. But it could have been her.

Maybe she was trying to be the new female version of Michael Jackson without going to the extreme of skin bleach....just a thought.

Also possible. All I know is, Eric's grandma was scared of her, and refused to get out of the car until she left. Some people don't appreciate weirdos.

Probably is. Maybe she's one of those clown preachers I've heard about. Yet another reason for me not to go to church.
