itsasickness celebrates interesting people – the most interested people in the world: the sick.

When I met my wife, it struck me that she was the most interesting person I had ever met in my life.  When we talked, she geeked out about her current obsessions.  At the time they were Django Reinhardt, her friend Frankie Manning, John Donne, the chemistry of nutrition.  And I geeked out about my then-current obsessions which were the math of classical Indian ragas, politics, film.  We talked all night and into the morning. I would have married her that very day.

Everybody knows somebody who is the most interesting person they have ever met.  These people are interested.  The people who are obsessed with stuff are beyond interesting, they are sick!  Such people make the world less boring, and I believe, 100% more awesome.  itsasickness is about them.  The sick.

Maggie is obsessed with Jazz.
Barnaby’s obsessed with Apple products.
Alan’s obsessed with his dogs.
My mom is obsessed with tomatoes.

Interesting people are interested in stuff. 

But are you sick?  That’s the question.
