I just came back from my lunch break. As I was eating my greasy, delicious, tiny, and overpriced Pad Thai, a woman dropped a flyer on my table and told me that she was a psychic, and I should come see her. "I get a strong feeling from you," she said, tapping my shoulder and walking away.
My first reaction was, "Of course you get a strong feeling from me; I'm very complex." Also, I just kind of look like I'm interested in counter-culture and New Age-y things. I have very thick glasses and a funky (read: overgrown) hairdo.
I do think the idea of psychics is really interesting. I really like contemplating the possibility of my own past lives and telepathy. And plus, it's impossible to prove something doesn't exist, so I figure that if science can approve dark matter, I can believe in dimensions and plains where energy exists in another form. Could the psychic sense that, I wondered?
As soon as I got back to my desk, I pulled out her flyer and read the back: I have helped many people with life changing problems. Why should you suffer any longer?
Wait, what? Do I look like I have problems? Do I look like I'm suffering?? She wasn't honing in on my open mind; she just thought I looked sad! I'm not sad!! I mean, I was, like a month ago, but now everything is great! I have this awesome job, my boyfriend is a total babe, and we've just rearranged our home into a super sweet pad. That's the Becky Happiness Trifecta!
Anyway. Maybe she could sense my complexity. Or maybe I should just smile more.
