Random thoughts...

You've been warned...

Took a fabulous hike (again) this evening, me, my dog, and my cousin. While doing so, my mind tends to go off on tangents.

************

There were a few seagulls floating around close to shore, and the water was a little choppy.  These birds were just a-floating there, bobbing away.  I couldn't help but wonder;  "do seagulls get seasick"?  Because if they did, that would seriously suck.  For the seagulls, not me.  I'd
probably find that funny.

*************

I REALLY want a bag of Lay's Salt & Vinegar chips...but suffering after is just not worth it.  This, discovered the hard way.  Damn things have lactose in them, which is the death-knell for foods when you're lactose intolerant.  Yeah, I can take a Lactaid, but to eat a few chips?  Not freaking likely.  I could eat another brand, but dammit!  They're just not as good.  So, I'll settle for thinking about them every damn time I go to the store.

*************

And in the midst of all of this, I'm thinking about cake.  Yep, cake. Not eating it, but one that I've been asked to make.  Next weekend, I'm participating in a Party In Pink Zumbathon.  I like doing cakes as a kind of hobby, so my Zumba instructor asked if I could make a cake to celebrate the event.  So while out walking, I`m mentally planning how to execute said cake.  I think I've gotten it figured out. Just maybe.

See?  My mind tends to wander...and those are some of the directions it went.

The Paranormal and Me

I'll admit it.  I have a "thing" for all things paranormal.  I think I always have.

Do I believe?  Ghosts?  You betcha.  Aliens? Absolutely. 

Before you all go running to get the men in white coats, I'll tell you that having experiences with this stuff will make you believe.  And I have.  With both.  But, my friends, that's another story for another day.

Back to my aforementioned "thing".  Call it what you will.

If there's anything on TV that's related to the paranormal, you'd best not disturb me until it's over.  It started with 'Paranormal State' on A&E...which led to the discovery of 'Paranormal State: The New Class', and 'Psychic Children'.  All on A&E.  I loved these shows, because they displayed the possibilities of all things that were 'other'.

I'm not a straight up, show me something and I'll believe that's it's paranormal, either.  I LOVE shows that will debunk what they see.  SyFy's 'Fact or Faked' is wicked for this...they'll take different cases (be it paranormal or aliens) and do EVERYTHING that they can to disprove the whole thing. 

Call me what you will, there's one paranormal show that I can't stand! Newfoundland Paranormal.  I understand that it was done on a very low budget, but really, it's more of what NOT to do while conducting  an investigation.  I won't go into details, but if you ever see it on TV, watch it, and you'll see what I mean.

So.  Me and the paranormal, we get along just fine...'Ghost Adventures' (I follow those guys on Twitter), 'Ghost Hunters' (I follow the ones I can find...), these are my new favorites.  Sadly, the Travel Channel that we get here isn't caught up to the current season, so YouTube has become my best friend.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So there, you see, these are the things I think. Today it's paranormal TV.  Tomorrow could be commercials, it could be music, could be current events.  Could be all about my cat and/or dog.  That's just it.  With me, you just never know!  Although, I have an idea for a few recipe posts, when the mood strikes to post it.
