Very funny!
I know it probably is. I told you about our house before. There is remodeling going on so they are stirred up. I also found out about my mystery illness. I have chronic asthma. I am taking Singulair and I feel so much better. Remember I was bitching about pictures of me with black around them? Well we took some pics recently and I look full of life again. Maybe the ghosts were trying to tell me something.

Sass,

You're crazy, yes indeed, however, don't worry, it's probably just ghosts touching you. Muuuuaaahaha!

Yep, I am also a victim of this craziness
I always feel like someone has touched me, but when I turn around there is nobody there.

Jems,
I know you're a nut job, too. That's why we're friends!

Yes, JJ, I assume by now it's not unknown how crazy I really am.
Oh well. Ya can't hide it forever. You know I adore you, but I hope I never have to fly on a plane with you!!

Spitsy,

I once had a psuedo-phantom itch.  There was a place on my arm that itched from time to time, and when I scratched there, a place on my back did an itch in time with scratching on my arm.  I decided it was just some kind of weird short in a nerve line.  It went away after a while.  I'm sure you've heard of the phantom pain that amputees feel in the missing limb.

As far as hubby saying that you didn't say something--well maybe he was watching a game on TV and paying no attention to you and said you didn't say anything even though he heard you, but he wasn't listening and couldn't admit it;  or maybe a big play was going down and he didn't hear a thing.

Crazy thoughts?  I have those, but I usually say something to freak people.  Twice on airline flights (I keep my mouth shut now) I said something weird.  Coming out of Atlanta, when the pilot reached cruising altitude he feathered back the throttle with the stick forward, and one of the jet turbines kind of went ''Vrrrroommmmmp.''  It sounded normal to me, but when I made a joke about it, the passengers all stiffened up and the lady in the next seat held her hands up in a tense prayer and kept putting her face against her hand chapel.

The other was coming out of LA.  I looked out the right side and saw the end of the wing doing a normal flex.  I said ''Is that wing supposed to be flapping like that?''  Seatbelts started clacking together and tightening up, people braced feet and grabbed seat arms.  They were suddenly scared shitless, and I was just joking--well I told myself I was joking.  Actually, I think I was testing for Atlanta Response Syndrome.  It was there.  Luckily I don't use airlines much.  I would be on a dozen or more shit lists.

Thanks for the post.  I always wanted to know how crazy you were.  ..... King  JJ

Thank GOD, PassionF!!!
So, you've also experienced the phantom itch? OMG, I was really starting to believe I was the only one. I already knew I was "nutz" but appreciate the conformation from others I trust. Whew! So, like, what about the other stuff I mentioned?

Heeellllllllllloooooo........
The whole reason we worship you as as goddess is that you're completely nutz like us! Gee, thought you knew.

But seriously, I have these same problems. It's because we live on several different planes. Not just in this one dimension like most folks. It's much more exciting, but can be challenging to keep up with.
