At my job I often finish a transaction with "Enjoy!" and always flash to Zizek's view of the injunction to enjoy and how prohibitive it is of actual enjoyment. This is a good example of one of the many secret ways I am a monster.
My mind is eaten by termites and I largely blame my sister for this. When we were tiny babes she would vigorously insist "You aren't Anna, I'm Anna. You're Morgan." Naturally, this terrified me. At that young age she was the only other being I saw as fully human and it was plausible that as we were the only two beings alive we could in fact be each other. That came out a little confused because it was confusing. Anyhow, it also serves to illustrate how Confused I've always been about whether the truth was true.
