I used to believe in fantastic things of the imagination; now they all seem to be dead.
  • I'm suffering that, too

    I used to be so imaginative, but I don't have an imagination anymore - well, maybe I do, but its pretty derivative. I attribute it to my desire to fit in, increase the pool of people I can date, succeed in business, and not be singled out for a schoolyard-style pummeling. I've been feeling so bereft, that I am thinking of chucking all that and returning to the fascinations of my earlier years - the Society for Creative Anachronism and science fiction conventions. I understand there is new stuff for the 21st century - Burning Man, Steampunk and various other things that the vast majority think are "nerdy".

    Maybe when the house is paid off....
