Grinity,
My IQ was tested 115, more or less as they say. I've always considered myself an oddball, though, in that common conversation bores me...unless I'm with fellow artists or people who read a lot. I'm a deep thinker, love to discuss the world, philosophies, books, meaningful art, etc. Here in "the burbs," that type of conversation is hard to find. I experience some loneliness in the burbs, yet I know there are book clubs I can root out. Too busy writing and working, I suppose. Guess I get that need filled with my theatre. Parenting a Gkid with an IQ of 153 exhausted and stressed me quite often. The intensity, sensitivities (fussiness?) argumentation, insatiability, etc. Once they grow up, we can enjoy them as adults, have mature conversations, and it's a great reward. I love the deep conversations we have.
