- OK. You'll appreciate this. I had a crisis moment in
- Filene's department store this afternoon. I had just bought my
- wedding dress and was walking towards the elevators when my wedding
- became "Reality" in a sudden flash (maybe it was the price of the
- dress..). My knees gave out, and my girlfriend grabbed me and asked
- me what was the matter. I told her, "I want my virtual life back."
-
- We then proceeded to shoe shop like possessed fiends. I've
- never bought 3 pairs of shoes on the same day in my entire life. Good
- thing this is all going to be over soon.
