I'm really interested in what her deal was. I guess until you know her better or find out what's going on just treat her as you always have and be on time when you need to.

WASN'T AWARE PEOPLE WITH BIPOLAR CAN HIDE IT FROM OTHERS
I really thank you for your input. Until I read your reply, I was thinking as long as I carry around a bipolar checklist, I can tell if the stranger next to me or a client has it. I wasn't aware that you can talk to someone who has bipolar and never guess he/she was.
HOW CAN GORGEOUS WOMEN BE BIPOLAR?
It's even harder for me to believe, a gorgeous woman who is not only a gifted writer, but she is obviously extremely intelligent and very classy. Do people who are afflicted with bipolar can be classy or does this disease hollow out somebody's personality? She is married, has a few kids and probably been married for 9 years I am guessing, but thinking if she was bipolar her marriage wouldn't have lasted as long. My stereotype is people who are afflicted with bipolar are basically middle to low income people. The prettier and more attractive folks rarely ever have this disorder
the only maybe only indication she is bipolar is when I first met her, she was way too skinny and borderline anorexic.
MAYBE MY ADHD TRIGGERED HER HARSH RESPONSE
I have ADHD and while all the dumb things I do is done out of ignorance and innocence, as people who know me know I am super friendly and always in a good mood, but when I get excited I sometimes can get ahead of myself, I email too much, text too much, call too much, basically I turn into a little kid, harmless absolutely harmless but I realize that can piss the crap out of those who don't know me.
STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY THE RAGE
I guess at this point it does not matter, but just for being late 4 hours, Ok I was getting too personal in their lives, I can't understand for the life of me how can anybody get so angry over something so trivial as being late and of course I was getting too personal. I am thinking could it be possible I was on occasion bragging about myself, maybe she didn't like me bragging about myself and making it seem like I was better than her. It just seems the rage she demonstrated must have been ego related somehow. I mean she lives in a plush neighborhood, her husband is a successful professional, and here is this painter trying to put himself above them i have no idea but all I can say is the overly aggressiveness of her, I mean she did not show one ounce of respect or fear of me. She knew before hand I was very afraid of her both physically and mentally, and she knows I am like a little kid so she had no qualms of verbally beating me.
