Maybe Crazies Do Study Psychology

In my research methods class on Wednesday we did some group work with people sitting around us. I ended up working with three other girls (ladies?) though one of them is in the "woman" category. Another category she's securely in: crazy. That was probably one of the most awkward classes I have ever been in.

No more than twenty minutes after meeting each other and in the midst of normal small talk she shares about her therapy sessions and her history with restraining orders. Yeah, not at all inappropriate... In case you were wondering, the restraining order was against her, and she was proud of it! Then she shared about how she and her mother-in-law didn't get along at all and when the mother-in-law was practically on her death bed Crazy intentionally "tortured" her by driving in a manner that really scared her. Don't worry, I am not sharing any of my information with her.

After class on of the normal girls and I walked to the parking lot together discussing how we may need to start sitting on the opposite side of the room. Though that totally messes up my plan for sitting near the hot guy. Sigh, the sacrifices we make for personal well being.
