I wore an Enigma tonight. Completely unintentional; in fact, I didn't realize I was doing it until long afterwards and I was sitting on the bus going home. That bothers me. Enigma is a defense mechanism; it's usually something I switch on intentionally and keep going for exactly as long as I want it to keep going. That I no longer have control over it seems... dangerous.
I mean, what it is is the creation of a mental blank spot in surrounding consciousnesses of where I am. It's an SEP field or an Unimportance or Unremarkable field; whatever you want to call it. It's not really a good thing; it's just convenient and largely effective.
Hmph. Well. I need to keep an eye out henceforth and not do that. At least it was productive. Making another post for what I came up with at the bar.
