I have a stalker

It's kinda of scary and kind of amusing. But it's now official.

There's this woman -a mother of a kid at our school- who is kind of extrememly nuts. Officially. We met when my current 5th-grader was in 2nd grade and her only child was in 1st grade. I had to babysit her on a field trip while the teacher pretended she was an official chaperone. It was horrible. We'd just met, were looking after a bunch of 7-year-olds and she was sharing all her nuthouse admission stories with me -and that she'd only just got out again. And paying no attention to the kids.

But I've managed to avoid her for a few years......

Now, a "friend" added her to the facebook group for the fundraiser I do, and she's decided to do it with a vengeance. And turns up each week and wants to chat and "get to know each other better" (why? we have NOTHING in comon). plus she never remembers anything and asks the same questions again and again.....

... today she told me she was thinking about me (and my fundraiser) all week.....

Just lonely, maybe? No. Here's why I'm starting to think about panicking (she's not gay, it's not that type of stalky -that I can handle -my jawline is very masculine, my hair is short and my shoes are usally flat.....):

Another mom helps me at the Scrip Stores (the fundraiser). She's a shrink. An ER on call for no-one-else-can-work-it-out type shrink. The Major Crazies. And a friend.
(1) She spotted her as a nutter straight away. OK, many would
(2) She was alarmed by how much this woman knows about me -stuff that even she didn't know, and it then occurred to me that I have never told this woman a lot o what she knows about me. And I'm not all that googlable either

For example (and this was the case my shrink friend cited).... I have a PhD -all y'all know that because this is the interwebs, I can be braggy- but in real life, it's a need to know basis. And not many need to
(3) Shrink was concerned -and amused- by how she gloms on to me. I'm taking the fact that the shrink finds it funny as a reassurement that the nutter is not going to go postal......

But please, was I really that bad in a former life?

Scary, No?
