Sometimes I Wonder....

I was talking to another Izzardite about a feeling of malaise I've been feeling, since Eddie's gone out of view. I think other Izzardites might be suffering the same blues. And it occurred to me...you know we might be addicted to the adrenaline of new things happening that we got used to during 99-00, or that we first felt when we found this incredible human being. I used to log on every day on the Izzard board and there was always something funny or interesting going on. There was so much buzz then, not just about Eddie, but I guess it was all new to us, and we were so jazzed to hook up with others with the exact same heads.

So now we are like old junkies, the thrill ain't there any more but the addiction still got that hold on us. I keep looking for a fix, something to ease the jones for anything new.

Can one be addicted to Izzard and to Izzardites? Isn't it the strangest thing? It feels more real than real life. I know I sometimes frustrate my husband, who feels I am absent, and he feels kind of abandoned. There is a kernel of truth to that. I don't mean it but my mind is always wondering if there's something new on my bookmarked sites.

I keep thinking of the Pied Piper of Hamlin, luring all the children away.
