Have you ever seen some small thing that you coveted?  I did last night.  The local meteorologist had a jacket on that I immediately fell in love with.  As my five regular readers know, I am not a fashionista, but this jacket really caught my eye.  It’s perfect for dressy and casual wear.  I was ready to kill to know where she got it.  Yes, I wanted the jacket that bad. 

     Then, as I searched the web for one like it, I began to rationalize.  With my luck, the jacket would look like crap on me and I’d have to return it.  Therefore, I say that it’s better to dream than to have reality slap you in the face over something so trivial.

     Is it no wonder that fantasy games are so popular?  They suspend reality and that’s something we all need occasionally.

     Yes, I said occasionally.  If you spend more than an hour or two a day playing games, you need a dose of reality.  You do have to put those things down, suck it up, and step out into the real world more often.

     Did I ever find the jacket?  Nope, but that’s okay I really don’t need it.
