The other party involved in this would kill me for telling anyone about this as he's mortified by the subject. I however am crude and vulgar. More importantly these boards are anonymous so I feel less of a cad for breaking my word. For all its comedic value this is nonetheless intriguing.
As readers of the thread about shared dreams will know i now regularly report on dreaming about friends, telling them about it, and having them confirm the dream matched their thoughts or real events.
One friend in particular makes up about 25% of all the incidents of apparent interlocking minds. He's also the primary partner in the deliberate experiments ive reported.
The question to speculate on is whether this is the case because we are so close (we speak by phone almost every day and he tells me absolutely everything in his life) and therefore "entangled" in some psychic realm, or whether his prominence in my reports is entirely a practical artefact of our frequent interactions (ie i have more psychic dreams about him because i have more dreams about him full stop. And i have more dreams of him because he's a daily presence in my interactions with the world.)
I favour the latter explanation. But a most peculiar coincidence makes me wonder if we are indeed psychically entwined as twins are alleged to be.
As of two nights ago I have exhibited the lavatorial symptoms of...well, lets not beat about the bush...a haemorrhoid. There are piles of jokes you could make. I have none of the discomfort, but the evidence is there. So as of yesterday i started applying the appropriate medication. Other than that its not the kind of thing you bring up in conversation with anyone. And i wouldn't here. Until...
I'll give you a moment to recover. Perhaps pop a grape in your mouth.
Today said friend rang me after 2 or 3 days absence. Almost straight away he intimated he had an embarrassing problem and really didn't want to tell me what it was. I can think of no past experience of him being reticent to tell me anything whatsoever. Immediately i anticipated where this was going. And now, so have you.
Yes, dear bleeder..I mean..reader. Call it coincidence if you will. But i appear to be having the symptoms of his problem. Or vice versa.
Now i've shared this fact in the interest of science, I need to sit down. But somewhere soft and for not too long.
