I opened a bag of Wasabi chips.
There was one of those little freshness bags inside, and for a second I could swear that printed on the packet, it said:
"Soul: Do Not Eat."
Certainly good advice.
I've been having this problem a lot lately. I can not think of the words for simple things, I can feel the word in my head, out of reach, and I will sit and say "Aw, you know, one of those THINGS. With the handle." And the person I'm with will say, "You mean, Sarah Jessica Parker?" and I will say "Yeah."
I will think of one word and type another, usually an actual english word that escapes spellcheck. And now lately I will look at things and they will say something odd, forcing a doubletake. Last night I was driving home, and on the side of the Philadelphia Free Library it said:
"Philadelphia False Library."
And always this stuff makes some kind of weird sense.
