I'm relieved and disappointed at the same time. I get a lot of pleasure out of laughing at her, but I have to admit this stay has been an uncharacteristically easy-going affair. Things have gone amazingly well, and things never go well when Nancy's in town. I don't think she has the energy anymore to be as zealously judgmental and superior as she once was. Being absolutely correct about absolutely everything is a lot of work, and she's just not up to the task at the moment.
Fatigue can sometimes bring out the best in a person.
