Call me a wild-eyed optimist but I am going to hold off on the speculations that she's gone over the edge or even needs therapy until the invisible ninjas attack her at a con.

That was one long paragraph, though.

My attitude toward mostly everything are pretty rigid and cynical, so it my affect my views on her. But sometimes nuttyness first appears subtly... Sorry. I always expect the worse, and sometimes it can work out in making what happens next perhas a bit less bleak. I'm a born fatalist.

For God's sake, I'll be in the mall and see something, and go, "Oh, it's the perfect gift for (fill in the blank)." I've been in line with the present in my hand, before I go, "Wait, these are make believe people. I can't buy them a Christmas present." I guess I could, but there's no way to give it to them.


She's over the edge. Separation of reality and fantasy are tenuous at best. Her super-ego is catching her out just before it becomes incredibly awkward and obvious to everybody.

I'm skeptical about wether or not "super-egos" exist.

But yeah, I have a sense of where she is headed too. I'm almost sorry for her.

She doesn't give off the KEE-RAZY vibe that so many SF writers do so effortlessly.

She does give off a strong, strong "justifying my lifestyle choice" vibe. "If you don't like my fetishes, why do you keep on sleeping with me?"
