Is My Sister Trying To Tell Me Something? (spoiler: explosions ensue)

Saturday, September 13th, 2008 | Life, Rants

I’m sure most of you that frequent my site know my sister died last October. What you don’t know is that Sept. 13th is her birthday.

Well, I plan to throw a very large party in her honor. However I was thinking the party wouldn’t start until 2pm. Seems it started a little early when everything died all at once… With a bang….

All the video players on my site were converted the other day to use an API somebody made and it requires the videos to bounce through their site and get back to mine. Well, the guy broke something and then went to bed I think. So at exactly midnight all my video players died.

That’s nothing. I was too busy to notice the video players because I heard a LOUD bang in the living room, when I was strangely for once in my bedroom and somebody else was using the projector to play my ps3.

The loud bang was the sound of my projector bulb EXPLODING.

This bulb costs just under $400 and I have been telling all my friends about how it might just last forever, since I have reset the timer twice and it probably has 6 or 7 thousand hours of use on it. I figured the “possible explosion” thing the guide book warned of was bullshit.

I can’t open it right now and see how bad the damage is and see if it was contained inside the bulb or if the projector itself is somewhat fucked because we have just got it mounted on the ceiling using some crafty shiznit and it will take effort to pull down.

So my thought is that my sister is haunting me, and she knew that I would eventually come to the conclusion that the bulb would have died soon anyways, so I couldn’t be upset about it.

However I am throwing a bigass party in her honor today and would have appreciated it if the projector would have been usable for the party. Or maybe to keep it interesting the bulb could have exploded at 11:59pm on the 13th while people at the party were watching it. I mean how often do expensive things explode at a party?

cheers & fu (hey, that’s my sister’s favorite camera pose)

Also here’s some new music for you. I stuck this and some new “magic” on the music player. This playlist is called Pain. So despite the things that have gone down at midnight I will try to throw a great party tonight. Should have a lot of people here throughout the day. Hopefully they are content to eat, drink and be merry and don’t feel like having a 12 foot video screen to entertain them.

Well, the more you believe something is happening to you, the more you’re going to take notice of small things and then contribute to whatever you think is causing the “stuff.” For example, I heard about this lady who thought she the constant appearance of the number “4″ in her life was forewarning something. She began waking up at 4:44 in the morning, came home a couple times at 4:44 PM, and just flipped out at the sight of every 4. She went to some psychic AND a psychiatrist(can’t spell), both of whom told her that she was just in some mental state and that the illusions she created were affecting her on a sub-conscience level, causing her body to wake up at certain points and even notice the number 4 a lot.

In other words, the more you contribute to something for which you think is causing the happenings and stuff, the more it’s going to happen.

Not saying you’re being haunted or anything, just providing a plausible reason :)
