I wish I could control my psychic abilities
I started out my day with "Big Yellow Taxi" in my head and I had NO idea why until I got off the train and went in Walgreens before coming home.
I went to Walgreens for lotion. Yes, I know, I need lotion like I need more socks, but this winter has given me itchy dry skin, and all the lotions I have fix the dry but not the itchy, so I still scratch and then get lotion all under my nails and, well, it's just a disaster.
Wednesday night I saw a commercial for Gold Bond lotion and thought, "duh." So I went to Walgreen and no Gold Bond lotion (which is probably good because I doubt it smelled pleasant) so I head over through the medicinal aisles to see if it is hiding there instead of with the lotion and what do I see?? Bright colorful toddler socks with no stupid fold-down cuffs -- aka new homes for my iPod! I have been searching for plain little socks like this for months -- MONTHS!! And there they are at Walgreens, of course. I got the bright pink ones covered in stars. Not as awesome as my current fish-covered sock, but still good (especially since current sock is full of holes).
No Gold Bond lotion in the Medicinal areas...so I head back over to the lotion aisle and what song comes on? That's right, mother fucking "Big Yellow Taxi."
Coincidence? I think not.
If I hadn't already found him almost 7 years ago I would have expected to find Travis around the corner.
