So, I got my wish.
I got to sign a stack of traveler's cheques.
In the end it cost more than my taxes.
But then I get to keep this money.
For now.
A couple weeks ago Rhonda lent me a couple of her Imponderables books so that I could read about the chemical properties of hair and Grecian Formula for Men and what the two have to do with each other (I don't remember why we were discussing this, as neither of us is a man with gray hair).
While I had the book I also read its explanation for déjà vu, which said that it (déjà vu) is not an extremely widespread occurence, but that it is more common among the highly intelligent (ha! I knew I was highly intelligent!). It also said that the type of people who experience déjà vu are also the type who report having had the sensation of observing themselves from outside their bodies or who report having repeated words or phrases to the point that the sounds become nonsensical. (My score was 3 for 3.)
Yeah. So.
How this was supposed to tie in with the traveler's cheques, I'm not sure.
Especially since, up to the very last one, my signature still didn't seem like a nonsensical jumble of letters.
Maybe this means I'm not highly intelligent afterall. Or only highly intelligent in an auditory sense. Or maybe it just means Mr. Stafford was right.
Or maybe it just means I'm really really tired.

What is true deja vu? It it the experience of re-experience, or is it the sensation that one has already done something that he or she is doing for the first time? (Or is it the post-act feeling that one just repeated something done long before - when it's highly unlikely that one actually did do that thing long before.)
