wow, i love finding out that so many people have to deal with this problem. i hate suffering alone. :D<br />
it's amazing that writers can even converse at conferences since we're basically sticking people with the same defect in the same space.

The really horrible part is that when I'm with real live people, I spend way too much time telling them all about my online friends. I'm not quite sure what they must think of me by now, but, since they did see live actual people come to pick me up for a weekend not long ago, at least they know these people really exist!

I <a href="http://danielhatadi.blogspot.com/search?q=gibbering">noticed</a> this in myself after only about a year or two of being in this whole writing game. After developing my inner editor's muscles, I couldn't stop the bastard stepping in during conversations, often having three possible versions of a sentence surface in my mind at the same time. I've even made up words that don't exist because I was trying to say two at once. And now that I'm not wasting my brain cells away in nightclubs…

I've even made up words that don't exist because I was trying to say two at once. And now that I'm not wasting my brain cells away in nightclubs on the weekend, I also find myself preferring online socialising. I'd feel a little guilty about doing this if guilt was a driving force for me, but it's not. So anyone that tells me otherwise can go to hell.<br />

haha! that's EXACTLY how it is. i think we're so used to searching our brain for something descriptive and unique that the common word eludes us or comes to us last. and sometimes the common word never comes to me and i have to use shiny and pointy. or a description: use to cut paper. make a scissor motion with fingers.
