Connections, or Why I'd be an Excellent Time Lady

One of the most important things to know about me is that I thrive on connections. I love definitions, I love analogies, I love relationships, and I love time travel. Definitions shape the words they define, and the words in turn shape their definitions. Analogies bridge the gap between words and life. Relationships connect people. Time travel connects EVERYTHING.

Yes, this is a bit silly, but I love the different ways that fiction approaches the concepts of time travel. I love the way my brain stretches and twists around it. I love the notion that everything is bigger and more important than it seems. I love thinking about the impact that the tiny choices I make now might have on my life.

As always, this seemed more important before I started typing. Maybe someday it will be.
