I was having a bizzare conversation with Dr.B the other day (i know, something shockingly different, right?!) about whether anybody is normal. I said that he and i both fell into the category of 'weird'. He didn't believe me, arguing tha everybody was weird in their own way, and that many people strove the become 'normal', striving for an 'ideal' that didn't really exist. So, we went for a second opinion. We asked Loz if she thought she was normal. She said she'd never really thought about it. She just was; she didn't try to be normal, and she didn't try to be weird - she just was. This threw us a little (him more than me, seeing as i already believed that normality was existant). We considered this and decided that people who didn't think about whether or not they were normal were, while people who thought about it weren't. Can you get your head around that? Something to think about...
I've never considered myself normal, though i suppose i've strived for it. When i turn my mind to it, however, i don't think i'd want to be 100% normal... Dr.B isn't normal, and i would love to be more like him. His is the kind of being that i strive for. Not normality, but not weirdness in a bad way. Somehow, he finds a good middle ground.
