\"Hqdefault\"For years, there’s been a kinda crazy lady living within a block of my home in the mountains. <\/p>\n

This is a woman that has on more than one occasion been seen on her balcony bare breasted speaking fragments of half a dozen languages doing the Xena Warrior princess war cry or arguing with one or more of the voices in her head.<\/p>\n

On at least one occasion she’s been out on the street lying naked having a full on temper tantrum.<\/p>\n

It is not uncommon to hear her having these fits once a month or so, they go on for an hour or so then she gets bored and shuts up.<\/p>\n

\"CrazyHer immediate neighbor was a decent guy, But over the years he’s gone downhill. He’s on heavy medications and way too much “Medicinal” Pot. With him, the problem seems to be Tourette’s syndrome (after a fashion). Something will frustrate him and for the next 30 minutes there’s a stream of bellowing obscenities, punctuated by fuck in all it’s various forms.<\/p>\n

Usually, the neighborhood only has to deal with one of them having a bad day at a time.<\/p>\n

Since I’ve gotten back up to the mountain, both of them are having bad days every day <\/strong><\/em>sometimes all day, and well into the night. We’re talking about screaming at the top of human vocal ranges. Imagine the screams of the damned souls in Hell.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, it’s making it tough for me to calm down. The very last thing I need is conflict or soul chilling screams right now. I really need peace and quiet. I’m thinking someplace away from all people, off grid – maybe camping someplace? <\/p>\n

The thing is, The Crazy is strong with these two. Do I have to deal with their shit and my own too. can’t I find a moment’s peace? What happens if in dealing with their shit and my own… I end up just like them. <\/p>\n

There’s a fragment of something about looking into the abyss and having the abyss look into you. I can’t remember all the quote right now. There’s something else about dealing with monsters.<\/p>\n

I did find a few moments of not only peace, but joy, over the past few weeks, but that is over now I fucked it up. Now it’s back to just dealing with stupid shit.<\/p>\n

Sigh, Time to go walkabout!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
