She speaks quickly and forcefully with no breaks between sentences. My brain has to work extremely hard to keep up. This goes on for multiple minutes and she gets upset if anyone interrupts her. It's so crazy. When she talks I feel instantly trapped in conversation. I nod and smile disingenuously and contrive ways to break free from the conversation. Sometimes I back away slowly and am surprised at her unwillingness to pick up on my body language as she shouts with the same energy level.
