  I have this theory. But it has evolved into a belief. Which is to say, an optimistic type of Hope.

  I am something other than normal. I mean, everyone believes that they’re unique and special and all that bullshit, but a gander over at myspace shows the opposite. In fact, it literally makes me see how not normal I am. Not normal: for not wanting to play mind games with people. Not normal: for not trying to mind fuck and cyber tease old men with camera photos of my tongue. Not normal: for not pretending to be someone the media presses into a mold, or rolls over with a diamond studded rolling pin and cuts into cookie shapes with sharp, sharp words.

  But my theory is that I’m not the only one who feels this way. I think that we’re out there, jellyfish in the deep, glimpsing each other through the dark water while everyone else gets entangled in our tentacles and, paralyzed by things they do not understand, slip away from the current we ride.

  So I wanted to be the one to give us a name (because you all know how I like to name things) and I came up with a really good one: NeoSapien.

  That is, until I wiki’d it and apparently NeoSapiens are 8 foot tall purple humanoid aliens.

  Meh….. I don’t care. I hereby declare myself to be a NeoSapien.
