So, back when I was on ADHD meds, some ideas a series of posts materialized in my head. Some of them actually became real posts, and some of them have remained unrealized on the back burner in my mind, so to speak; because I've been having a really rough time over the past six months, and it's gotten a little harder for me to articulate some of these things. It's even harder as I'm trying to write this after spending most of the day in the hot sun after consuming more booze than I should have under those kind of conditions (seriously, I am never drinking liquor at a renfaire in this kind of heat ever again. Today was great, but it could have ended very badly if flamingsword hadn't been there with a ginger oil pill. But I digress.)

And this keeps coming back to the forefront of my mind because one of my OCD demons is near-constant rumination about the past, and because I'm currently dealing with a midlife crisis. But also because we just arrived at the 25th anniversary of The Matrix; and because we may be about to get a sequel we probably didn't need, in a way that mirrors the plot of the 4th film, which lampoons the idea of legacy sequels and remakes as one of its core themes.

( A particular conundrum has been bothering me for a long time; like a splinter in my mind, driving me mad. )
