how’d you know that?
so this happens a lot to me:
other person: so, how was your first day of class?
me: [thinking] what the…? how did you know i started class yesterday?
me: [saying] oh, it was good, i really like the class that i’m taking right now
other person: that’s good, so how was your christmas in vegas with your family?
me: [thinking] uhhh… what’s going on here? i’m gonna have to change my locks aren’t i?
me: [saying] ummm… it was good… k, i gotta go, bye!
and this happens with about almost everything: how i converse with other people, what kind of pet peeves i have, my favorite food (sandwiches). it’s funny because i have a horrible memory, so when people say stuff like that, i wonder if i had a conversation with them before about it and i just forgot, or they’re just stalking me. i figure it’s gotta be one of the two. usually it’s the first. sometimes i’ll just forget having a conversation with someone about a topic until they bring it up again and then i’m like, oh yeah… we talked about that. or the other extreme is, i’ll repeat myself forgetting i already told someone something. which sucks because i hate repeating myself.
but sometimes, it’s the second. and i don’t mean people stalking me stalking me. to me, it seems like stalking just because i’m always thinking, “how’d they know that?” are they following me? how do you know where i was last night? i get freaked out sometimes. but a lot of times it’s because people keep up with my blog. which, after i find out, i’m very encouraged that people keep up with me through reading my ramblings. so please keep reading and telling me about what i wrote about when you see me in person. except not in the freaky, stalkerish kind of way please. i realy do get weirded out. you should preface it by saying, “so i read in your blog that _______” and so begins our conversation.
