It's a great experience, when you feel very much in sync with someone with very little of the frictions and complications of actually interacting with them. Eventually it gets boring, but I love it and I love to draw it out. I also find this feeling to be an excellent antidote to the post-holiday letdown.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19408862.post-12520119975894059992007-01-08T09:45:00.000-06:002007-01-08T09:45:00.000-06:00Some of this sounds like the after-the-holidays bl...Some of this sounds like the after-the-holidays blues and some of it sounds like the writing-the dissertation blues. The writing the dissertation blues are a special kind of blues... :-) They are getting you ready for the world of academia. Writing the diss is the first place we learn how to write and work in isolation. There's no grad seminar, no seminar paper, no course work, and even with a writing group, it's still just you alone with your ideas and sometimes that makes you feel blah. :-)<br /><br />Being in love with the idea of someone has to be the most exciting part of being in love. It's that weird stage between "really new" and "getting to know you." It's the place where your imagination can run wild, usually until you find out who the person you're in love with the idea of really is... Most of the time people are so much cooler "in theory" ;-) than they are "in real life." All of that is my way of saying I fall in love with the idea of people and things all the time. :-)Gwyneth Boltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01241149490843015170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19408862.post-18775640239379977342007-01-08T04:08:00.000-06:002007-01-08T04:08:00.000-06:00Being in love with someonev or the idea of right n...Being in love with someonev or the idea of right now? Could it be a need a desire to feel accepted, wanted, approved of, cared for? <br /><br />After Christmas is always a funk I think, or at least for people who seem to really really love and enjoy Christmas. <br /><br />I feel like a ball of something, not really nerves or emotions, but sort of someone who wants something, something that will do the trick immediately, but not quite sure of what the something is. <br /><br />Sorry, I can't help. Keep writing I suppose.Abadiebitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13131824336879869920noreply@blogger.com
