weird!

...my favourite word at the moment, probably of all times... I read it in ABOUT A BOY by Nick Hornby, trying to ignore it when it first appeared (cause that's what you do with unknown words, esp. when you're too lazy to look them up. that works until that word shows up for the 3rd or 4th time...), then making it to one of my most often used ones. In the Hornby-book-context it was used as "odd", "strange" and even "different", i.e. in a more bad sense. But I liked it cause it me it seems that things are rather strange than normal, there's nothing you get really used to, people you think you know suddenly turn out to be someone else and whenever you're sure nothing can surprise you... well, it happens. Maybe it's that I'm crazy but for me it feels I don't get to rest, life speeds up, nothings is quite the same every day. Just to avoid missunderstandings: That's the way I like it (uh-hu, uh-hu), I don't want my life to be boring, turning in circles, be defined by normality. Ok, here's the but: I only wish it would be a bit more reliable. I know it's nothing personal... (the system "doing good = being rewarded; doing bad = being punished" doesn't work at all, at least not for the universe. think about it.)

so, the weird thing that happened to me yesterday, I wanna start a bit further in history...
Rob was in Frankfurt to visit me over the weekend, took the night train and I picked him up at 6:30 a.m. It's nice going back to bed early in the morning... Saturday night we went to see CONTROL (with german subtitles), a sacry, genius, thrilling movie I must strictly recommend. As usual Rob had to leave sunday; he called from the train station and txted later after knowing which train to take. Then my mobile acted weird... normally, after I use it, the screen saver shows up after about a minute, so the other background picture (guess what it is...) disappears. This time, it wouldn't do anything, so Rob kept smiling at me from my mobile. Call it coincidence or whatsoever, these things happen and they don't care if you treat them as a sign or as random curiosity. Well, as mentioned earlier, I don't believe in randomness... And life IS weird, other proofs will follow...

PS: here's the soundtrack, quite fitting...
