Suspension of belief...

...and how you deal with that suspension is a huge part of what living means if you're really gonna live, in my opinion. How you decide to work through the absolute fact that, as John Irving would say Garp said, we are all terminal cases.

I've got a boatload I want to write about this, but yesterday turned out to be a long one, and right now I'm about to go driving to work, and I don't want to skip anything, so I'll be back around 6:00 to finish writing. For now all I have time to say is it has to do with people like animals and the living dead and the never alive and what happens when you watch it and you don't play pretend except on purpose.
