"Daniel experienced a faint echo of what it must be like, all the time, to be Isaac Newton: a permanent ongoing epiphany, an endless immersion in lurid radiance, a drowning in light, a ringing of cosmic harmonies in the ears." --Neal Stephenson, from "Quicksilver." I have synesthesia (sounds have shapes/colors) and bipolar 1. The bipolar part fucking sucks and is the most lusciously magnificent thing ever. Yeah, you've heard that before, I bet.

You poor thing! Its like losing your voice, eh? :-)
If you wanna jump on a plane, you can use mine... I'll meet you in Florida next week. Key West!
Oh good heavens! J Star, I think someone needs to sprinkle some dust around your bed to take the curse off.
OK some idears: a good time to investigate what you can get out of other types of cameras maybe? a time to check out some photography books (though you may not be interested or already have read a ton...)umm, a time to make a matchbox camera? check out photog exhibits in zee surrounding areas? look at photog magazines?
i only say all this because i feel this way about travel and being grounded, I really have to work sometimes to understand the decisions i made to get here...so i try to make the best of it.
what? No loaner? How Rude!
Oh! So sorry to hear that!!!
cincy diva's got the right idea! in the meantime, hey, ever tried a LoMo (sp?)camera? Don't know where you'd get one where you live, but they're cheap and fun; might ease the waiting time for you trying out something new ...
PS, oops, I misinformed you (and am now totally abject): just googled Lomo and they are way way way cheaper, like $5-$25. I wanted one after seeing some Lomo shots - quite wierdly wonderful - but hadn't actually shopped, yet. Anyhow, if you're interested, try googling lomo or lomography ... and now I'm sounding like an infomercial or spam, aaaagh ...
I have three ancient one use cameras from K-mart circa 1994ish. I could send them your way if you'd like. Not sure if they would work. Two of them have all 24 exposures. One of them has a few images my great grandmother took back in 1994, but it still has about 15 exposures on it.

Shoot!
