First Name Terms
So anyway, wierd things, right.
I was in the kitchen at work this month talking about talking to someone about my daughter. Normal dad stuff, kids say the funniest things, etc. Out of the corner of my eye I notice someone come in.
I reach a part of the story where I say my daughter’s name. Then the person who just walked in and looks at me funny, which stops me mid-sentence. I look at her. It is a colleague with the same name as my daughter. She is looking up from a newspaper, staring strangely.
“Oh hey”, I laugh, thinking it’s funny that I say that name just as she turns up. It’s not that common a name, either.
She stares back at me, turns the paper around and points at her name in the middle of the newspaper article, the name she shares with my daughter which she happened to read at the exact moment that I said it.
Spooky.

What’s the name?! What’s the name?! No, let me guess - let’s see if we can keep the weirdness going.
The name is…it’s…ummm…BRENDA. Was I right? Did I guess it? Am I psychic?

WRONG! Don’t want to say though, Christine, just because I don’t want to plaster their names all over the infoweb.
Cheers for stooping by.

Cliff, all this coincidence stuff- The Exact Change Incident, Finding The Ring Without Having To Change Your Sheets( Short title: The Ring Thing ), The Triple-Hit Name Thing- all mean that your Kismet is excited ( don’t point that thinig at me ) and if you should ever have wanted to attempt something special, now’s the time.
