Do I go bump in the night?

I have always lived inside my head a lot - maybe more than most people. Recently another doctoral student told me that my head is a dark and scary place. But she is one of these really logical kind of deeply analytical people.

Of course our prof said did say that I write in a visionary and disturbing voice. It seems I tend to raise more questions than I answer. But then I have always been somewhat more intrigued by the questions than the answers. I mean the question is what generates energy. The answer simply tends to pacify. Maybe that is why another professor introduce me to a colleague as an anomaly as in "Hi, this is James - he's a bit of an anomaly."

But really - who wants the answers when it is the questions that get you out of bed?
