It is a good idea to find something you can do that recreates some of the feeling you get from your obsession.

Instead, I married another woman. I can't get enough of seeing their life - it seems almost picture perfect (even when they blog about fights and illness). This was a great post...I needed to get this off my chest and what you had to say was some good insight.

I'm a fiction writer, so even though I have a non-creative corporate day job that consumes a lot of my time, I spend a lot of time in my head as well, just playing pretend - I am 23 years old and I don't think I'll ever give the practice up. It is my obsession. I am constantly listening for interesting bits of dialogue or figuring out how to spin a real-life situation into an exciting story. <br><br>I think that habitual fantasy has been something that has saved my sanity many times during the drudgery of my day-to-day life, and it gives me back a little bit of that joy I felt as a kid when I was the one in charge of "making up the stories"...

Probably one of the best reviews I've read, or that you've done. I'm inspired by your message to all of us that with a little creativity we can bring our fantasies closer to realities. After all, we've created our lives with our dreams in mind, and every day needed routines tend to bury them. Time to bring them back to life, and live them as much as we can. "Dance as if no one is watching." <br><br>Great message Trac. As your Mom, I have bragging rights to this! Probably one of the best reviews I've read, or that you've done.

However, since he's two states away for the winter, I'll have my memories, our talks, and vampire love stories to tide me over!
