When I was prekindergarten I had an imaginary friend named John. He was fairly "real" and we did stuff together and had a few conversations. I knew he wasn't really "there" because I'd get self conscious if anybody asked about him.
So then I grew up and a friend led me down bloggers' boulevard. It's kind of all imaginary too, but it's kind of like finding my friend John again at a yellow light on bloggers' boulevard. I almost have time to make out the features of his face and I'm trying to listen to what he's telling me, but the traffic is still moving.
I'm in the middle of real life now, it's across the fjord from google earth Brilliant thoughts make epileptic tidal waves through my brain, but I'm intent on making it through these rounds without landing with a cold or the flu, so they just roil in the gray matter without making a splash on the web. (otherwise I could stay up all night writing.) Maybe after Christmas I'll have it figured out and ready to post.

Well, I didn't have a friend like that, as a child, but very aware that I couldn't fight like the other boys, so I struggled to be a pilgrim among them...just passing through. Didn't know exactly where I was headed, but my heavenly Father was in it...
NEWS HEADLINE!!
lurkingplace blog readers drown in epilectic tidal wave of brilliance! Friend John among the missing and presumed dead! Emergency bailout being considered in Congress. One of the Big Three says senator from Minnesota. "But I didn't know they spelled it Fjord."
