First may I say to all, HAPPY holidays! ok, This may seem kinda whacky, but so often I almost feel as though I (or we) create our own daily reality show, and by our own minds, we decide how to fill in the blanks based on what is familiar in our own individual choices we choose to add to what to me almost feels like a sitcom in a way. By that I mean so often, and more often than not I will be doing something, talking about something, thinking about something, or mention someone, and anywhere from a few seconds later to maybe a half our later I will turn on the TV, or radio, or get a phone call and the name, word, song or topic is exactly what I had just said or thought. And this is not the everyday things that are common things to suggest it is something that would more than likely be in my thoughts,or said or heard to suddenly be heard or said back to me. A perfect example, which is a smidgeon of the so many examples I could state , for instance just yesterday I called my neighbor who happen to be babysitting, and stated how her Grandson is having a blast with this silly Gag gift I gave her husband years ago. He was in the war (world war II) and I happened upon this tacky plastic flower in a pot that was triggered off by motion. And as soon as you would walk by it, it would start spinning and singing the song Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company Blue (1941), and told me I HAVE to come and see this toddler having a blast as he danced around to the song. Feeling bad saying "no thanks" It went watched, got a kick myself seeing this, and went back home, turned on the news, and what's on? the song Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company Blue (1941)! Days before that, My friend was having a problem with a Rat who was apparently trying to gnaw its way into her home, obviously trying to find a warm and cozy place to stay warm and sheltered for the winter. She as myself are critter/creature lovers, and if there is a humane solution, that is the first choice. So I had suggested trying to trap it with a Have-a-heart trap, which for those that are not familiar with what this is, it is a cage that has a door and a trigger mechanism that when the animal goes in it to eat the food(bait) the trigger mechanism will (should cause the door to shut and lock. Hence, the Rat (or whatever it is) can be driven somewhere else and released. Needless to say, Two days ago, after a week of the rat outsmarting the trap, she was stating that as much as she does not want to do it, she questions if she should just get a quick kill trap. Being the over the edge animal lover I am, I told her to let me try setting the humane trap to see if maybe my doing it might work better, and to give me a few days to see if we get it. This was a phone conversation. I should also mention she does not have or watch TV. I say this for a reason, for those who may try to reason with this. I should also mention that I rarely watch or have the time TO watch much TV myself. Needless too say, I hung up the phone , turned on the TV just for the noise while I cooked and at the split second of hanging up the phone and turning on the TV and what is on?, an old Darma and Gregg sitcom, and the whole story was based on EXACTLY what I just got off the phone about. Darma Had a Rat that is apparently living in her wall/house, And telling Gregg that it should/could be caught ONLY with a Have-a-heart trap, and the whole issue of doing everything possible to not harm the rat, but to send him elsewhere. The ONLY difference with this was Darma had given the Rat a name. So, what I am getting at is, This happens to me more often than not, almost as quick as the thought or discussion enters my brain, and they are NOT the run of the mill things as you can see! For this reason, and many others, it almost leads me to question if each of us are creating/designing/tailor making our own individual realities, or possibly, we are merely the human puppets that are being created by another creation who/which is in fact creating OUR daily life and filling in the pieces for their own entertainment.
