I wrote a draft about the freaky Fridays that I have witnessed during the past couple of weeks, and while I thought about how the written word might have an effect on the people and their behaviour, just having mentioned this proved to be a good thing, since that day, the 24th of September, wasn't so freaky after all.
Or maybe it was just another Friday, and the person's power to manipulate others in order to turn the Friday freaky for the rest of us had started to wane.
Could it be that just starting to write about how that Friday could hopefully turn into a normal Friday again had the effect that I had hoped for?
Well, at least it was good to have experienced a normal Friday again, even an ordinary one, and so I shall use this further in the coming days.
The pen is mightier than the sword, I keep reminding myself, but so far I haven't even started to take notes...
So writing about the mildly strange things that have happened over the past couple of weeks, mainly on Fridays, which seems funny, might have some sort of effect on me and my peers, and if so, it will maybe prove that life imitates art.
Didn't Umberto Eco mention something similar in Foucault's Pendulum?
Guess it's time to read it again...and to watch what I write... :o)
Reading: C. G. Jung followed by Margaret Atwood
Music: very varied these days, have just discovered "As tall as lions", too bad they split up...

catalysts
Just one word, read somewhere, resulted in a few sentences, and probably a very strange short short story, might turn out kind of Kafkaesque...
So to be sure not to give up on it just yet, I am going to write about it here, and I guess it is a good preparation for the next nano, which I am looking forward to.
Although I need to prepare myself a lot better for this year's sessions, as I won't have that much time for it, I am determined to go ahead again.
As in real life, things get in the way that might seem like obstacles but could prove stepping stones, or so they say...
And sometimes, changing your view can alter the perspective on life, the universe and all the rest, I guess...
Trying to do so at the moment... :o)
Listening to: won't even start to mention all those names
Reading: should have started "The whisperers" by John Connolly a long time ago, but I'm still keeping it for a rainy day, I guess, expectations are high enough as it is the latest Charlie Parker novel...(and who would've thought that "the lovers" were such a bad couple of... what?... ghosts? )
