Weird Coincidences




It's now time to reveal a tiny bit of my weirdness. I'm sure you all experience a kind of deja vu now and then, but how many of you can claim the strange connections that haunt me. For instance, just last week I woke up with a Pearl Jam song stuck in my head. I hummed it in the shower and told Scott about it, but I couldn't remember the name so I turned on the iPod and ahha! "Unthought Known" (that's what it's called). Now, I'm a Pearl Jam fan from a long way back, so its not unusual for me to listen to them now and then, what is weird is that a mere day later, I was watching the new episode of "Castle" and that exact song was played at the end. What are the chances? But its not just one coincidence. Its a long string of coincidences. So many that I can't count them, nor do I keep track of them because they happen so often. So that's it. Any weird things you all want to reveal? But, of course, it's probably too soon....

side note: "Unthought Known" is on the Pearl Jam album called Backspacer. A couple of other great songs on that album are "The Fixer", "Amongst the Waves" and "Just Breathe".

  1. I moved a bit when I was a kid. Not a ton like military families, but more then the average kid.

    I had dreams and then after moving I saw the location of the those dreams. MOstly dark dreams.

    One instance was a dance studio. I dreamed about it in AZ. Then when I moved to Seattle we were checking out studios and I knew this one. In my dream we were using it as a bomb shelter. In the end I chose another studio. :)

  2. Can't think of a weird experience along those lines at the moment. Maybe you have "the gift" Arlene, as my favorite radio psychic Steve Godfrey calls it.

    However, I will share that seeing Pearl Jam with the Ramones is in my top ten concert experiences of all time. :)

  3. Linda, I had no idea you're a Pearl Jam fan! So glad to know that you know how to rock. :)

  4. Too many weird things to recount. Mostly dreams like DJ we need to talk DJ. Pearl Jam rocks. Less surprised about Linda's pearl jam news than I am about her psychic admission. A radio psychic really? More power to ya.

  5. It never fails we end up in the car on Saturday evenings when Mr. Godfrey's show comes on. It's one of those guilty pleasure things, not something I take highly seriously. Although, it is surprising sometimes how accurate he is. ;)

  6. I love "coincidences" and never really believe that they're just that.

  7. DJ, you got the locations wrong. You were supposed to be living in Washington and finding the dance studio in Arizona. At least that's what I remember reading :)

    L.T., I keep meaning to tell you this, but I LOVE the new pic.
