i have a variety of fantasy worlds, any one of which i can slip into to erase reality from my mind. most of them are just nonsensical pointless images of of actions and reactions that are impossible in the real world, but some of them have an ongoing storyline that has been continuing for years. the only times i find sleep unattainable are when reality intrudes and all of the petty nuisances of the day plague me with self-doubt (i find this happening all too often these days).
