You fascinate me because you are "an armadillo among squirrels..." (I'm still chuckling over that). Your writing inspires me, stops me in my tracks, makes me go "BWAH!" adn then laugh or sigh or...something. Always something. You are brilliant, yet down to Earth. And you care so much it hurts, which is beautiful.

I find most people fascinating, it's people who don't "try", who are scared or stuck or don't take risks, that I find less so. But even they are not boring, they just need to grow.
