This one’s for everyone who ever announced they’d be waiting overnight outside a store for a new game’s release, or couldn’t sleep because they were so excited about the next day’s Macworld keynote, or babbled with helpless glee about the upcoming beta of the latest version of their favorite browser — only to be met with blank stares from friends, co-workers and loved ones.
You’re not alone. And maybe they’re right in thinking we have our priorities out of whack… but in the great scheme of things, there are worse things to lose your sense of proportion over than innovation, new possibilities and sheer fun.
I’m looking forward to tomorrow. Here’s hoping for a little taste of awe.
