8. Much smaller differences
Thu Jan 5, 2012, 09:00 AM
Jan 2012

I have had very small things change that I can't explain. Events I swear took place that no one else who was present recalls, one time my car key changed color (last summer), I vividly recall eating at a restaurant with my Grandmother as a kid that now seems to have never existed, my skinny cousin showing up overweight to my other cousin's wedding when I was in high school (no one in my family recalls that but me, even though at the time it was all my family could talk about). There have been very small, weird changes along the way in my life that I've never been able to explain, and they happen fairly regularly so they can't be explained by losing the 80's to basically one long drunk either. Just this Christmas I was making a scarf for a charity drive that I saw locally on FB, there was a particular knitting store that I am certain it said to drop your scarf off at, just before going to take my finished scarf to the store I checked again online and it was a totally different store! Honestly, I haven't used mind altering substances in almost 20 years and my memory isn't that bad.

But maybe I am just loony.
