Allright, here's a simple but neat syncronisity for the day

I'll start off by saying I've unfortunately been insomniaic of late and had been up for about 36 hours when this occured:

I was at my work (fry cook), getting ready to close down after a long and unexpected day ("i wasn't even supposed to BE here today!" ;p) listening to the standard seventies rock station and cleaning out some pans. Somewhere out of the blue I noticed that suddenly the rock had stopped, tho the station had not changed, and now there was talk radio coming out of the stereo.

Before I could get my bearings on what they were talking about, the phone rang. It was for the other guy there, so I handed it over and got back to my stuff, still listening to the show. It turns out it was a dog owner's call-in advice show, and they were talking about how to stop pets wetting floors and such. Suddenly, in a semi-panic, my coworker asks if he can leave, expaining that HIS dog is giving birth and he needs to get home to help make sure it goes over smoothly.

I think "wow,neat" and tell him ok, then get back to closing down (now alone for the last two hours) after awhile I sit down and start to work on some writing I'm doing (ended up filling this giant spool of paper with a linear story) all about this "fictional band" when my attention once agains goes to the station.

It's been talk all this time, and as I own no dogs I sort of let it fade into the background, but apparently they switched on me AGAIN and now are talking about one of my passions, old low budget horror films. First nifty bit is they mention roger corman's bucket of blood, which i just picked up for a song and a dance while out xmas shopping, but then someone mentions some OTHER film (forget the name) where the actor they have on was playing a guitarist in (and I quote) "a fictional band in the film"

Made my night, i know it was slight, but it filled me with delight. There ya go, one for the records of syncronisity on syncronisity on syncronisity. It always seems to happen more when you are one way or the other slightly out of phase with the usual patterns of yr existence, tho not sure why.

ta!
