So I'm a little bit behind on my responses to your post, because I didn't even realize you were still writing! I'm sitting in the last day of my canadian film studies class and I figured I'd check if you had written again and to my pleasant surprise, there are like 5 posts I've missed!

This one was great, I know you've explained the disconnectivity disorder to me before but this post clarified it so well and used some amazing analogies. I've definitely missed reading your writing.. and hopefully we'll chat again soon!
