I don’t like to discuss this much, because it’s so odd and creepy, but here goes…
I get communications from the dead.
It’s usually immediately after someone crosses over that I begin hearing his or her voice, often with some important piece of information to pass on to the living. It’s a gift, but sometimes… a curse.
This is one of those times. For the past few days, whenever I make a wisecrack, I’m hearing this low, disembodied chuckle, followed by an approving “Yessssss.” It’s really annoying.
And then it tries to convince me to trade my gold for cash. I don’t even have any gold. Who is this guy?
*UPDATE* Now there’s a chick’s voice, too, and she keeps calling me “Charlie.” What the devil is going on?
*UPDATE* A THIRD voice has now joined in, and honestly, I can’t tell if it’s male or female. It’s crying out “Sha-mone!” a lot (I don’t even know what that means!), occasionally punctuating it with high pitched grunts and squeals.
God, it just goes on all day : ”Charlie!” “Sha-mone YEEE-heee!” “Yessssss!”
I don’t know if I’ll ever get to sleep again.
*UPDATE* I now long for those simpler, more peaceful days.
A fourth voice has joined in, drowning out the other three, and it’s SCREAMING at me to buy OxiClean, Orange Glo, Kaboom, Engrave It, Handy Switches, an iCan, Mighty Mendit, some Mighty Putty (regular & Mighty Putty Wood), Hercules Hooks, an AwesomeAuger, a Steam Buddy, the Big City Slider Station, a Ding King, Impact Gel Insoles, an Omni DualSaw, the Jupiter Jack, the Soap-A-Dub-Slop Stopper, a Tool Bandit, SIMONIZ Instant Shine and Fix It! (regular AND pro), a Gopher, a Samurai Shark, the Grater Plater, and then finish up with a meal at Ragazzi’s Pizza.
Pity me.
