Why?

Why do I get all worked up over things that are only my fucking paranoid imagination?

Because you're human - paranoia came with the opposable thumbs.

That was almost my exact reply although mine was "with sapience."

Thanks.

Because your imagination knows you well enough to know exactly where to hit you. It cheats. If it works like mine, it's also well-hooked-in to your emotions, so it can just lean on the ouch lever to add weight to what it says.

Yep.

I kept repeating Ekaterin's remark about imagination, and very real blood pressure, to myself yesterday.

Then I called again.

Because contrary to popular opinion, the closest we get to the real world is the place inside our heads. Anything that's already there has first call on your attention.
