I'm also one of those "what if" persons, who likes to discuss ridiculous situations. My mind is a strange place, people.
The other day I was driving home with my sister and a song came up that had lyrics "I have so much to give." Out of nowhere, that triggered some weird thoughts and I started talking about kidnapping and robbing situations. Like, you know how in movies (and, most likely, in real life too) people who get attacked always tend to say the same thing (which makes total sense, of course) - "Please don't, I have a family. I have kids." Etc. So then I started thinking - what would I say in such situations?
"Please, don't... I left the oven on!"
or
"Please, no... I have a dog at home."
or
"I live alone! No one's gonna know for days!"
Safe to say these are completely dumb and random thoughts. But I always tend to say what's on this weird mind of mine. I can't help it. And then I get those strange, concerned glances from my family, like "Are you okay?"
Or they just laugh with me 'cause I'm a goofball. Either way, there's no limits to where my mind will wander next.
What about you? Any dreamers, "what ifs" or strange thinkers out there?
Please, tell me I'm not alone in this...
Take care,

You are not alone. I come up with strange scenarios for myself all the time.

Glad to know I have some wonderful fellow-weirdos!
DeleteYou follow my blog; that should answer your question!!
ReplyDeleteFollowing your blog actually makes me feel less alone in this!
DeleteYou're not alone. And dreamers and "what-iffers" make the best writers and most interesting conversationalists, so embrace your questioning mind. It'll keep you young, too. (Well, in spirit anyway... HA!)
ReplyDeleteBeing young in spirit is all that counts!
DeleteIt was great to see you on my blog again. I hope your life, if weird at times, is going well. I had to laugh at that last choice of things to say if your were threatened. I would avoid that one at all costs. Take care and hope the wind is not too bad. It's howling here again.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to see you here! Maybe I should re-consider my options on what to say and not...
DeleteThe wind is mighty as always. Hope you're safe and comfy with your adorable companions!
