Has anyone ever experienced the act of saying something (a phrase or comment) that is totally uncharacteristic of you?
For example, the other night my husband asked me if I would like some pie. I was watching TV and not really paying attention to him or the tele. Almost in a trance like state. And I heard myself say, "I don't care for any thank you." You might ask, what was wrong with that? But I am not usually that formal with my husband and I don't think those words have ever crossed my lips before. What I would normally say is Nope. Or No Thanks.
It felt strange to me to say that, and yet it flowed out so easily as if I have always said it. And it didn't even feel like I had said it. Strange and wacky.
