We've been keeping the cig packs in the kitchen cupboard as of late, to keep them out of sight & reach (trying to quit smoking, dontcha know). Well, we decided to have one , so I went in to get one cig from each pack of cigs. I opened the cupboard and grabbed both packs with one hand (side by side) and was going to get a cig out of each pack with the left hand. It felt uncomfortable, so I put them back up on the shelf and just took one pack down to get the cig, the planned to do the other one.

Well, while I was busy getting a cig out of the first pack, the pack I had just replaced on the shelf (and had been sitting there just fine for a couple of seconds!) basically leapt out onto the floor! It didn't tumble or even hit the counter on it's way down, as it should have, if it was just falling off the shelf. It landed on the floor beside me, but behind me. It went quite a ways!

Maybe this was kind of a 'I know what you're doing' thing? I don't know, but it reminds of the day the soap leapt off the shower rack and hit me in the butt.

Somebody sure wants you to quit! You'll make this time for sure with the house ghost rooting for you to. He/She isn't going to let you cheat too much.

Sheesh! That definately sounds like a sign to me!

Makes ya wonder though, if the flying ciggie pack was a sign, what was the flying soap a sign of??

Either a sign or a prank!

I think I forgot to tell you guys this when it happened. Every morining, dad makes a cup of coffee from those Folger's Singles™ things. After he makes a cup, he leaves the little packet (with ripped off top) on the counter above the dishwasher. One morning a few months back while he was loading the dishwasher, the top strip of the packet that had been ripped off, which was not near the edge of the counter, was kinda flicked onto the open dishwasher door as he was bent over putting a dish in.

Hmmmmm... I wonder if 'Hula Baby' is doing this! (Hula Baby is the wild wiggling orb we always seen to catch in the kitchen.)

Kell

Maybe it's a sign that they don't want you over on the other side yet?
Hmmmm....seems to me you should take the advise!
Someone is definately looking out for you!
Maybe a guardian angel?
Or just a friendly ghost!

Cindy!

Kell you never did say if you smoked that cigarette.

LOL!!!! You can't get away with anything! Cool story though!
Suzy

Just when you thought no one was looking they were...a sign to quit! LOL!

Sounds like he is playing pranks on you.

Do you get any feelings about the ghostie? Images in your minds eye? Sense anything about him?

Jeannie, yes, I did.

Nakis, I didn't get any images, but my feeling is it was male - and that this was more of a prank than anything. Stinker.

Kell

I'm fairly certain I would have smoked 2 after that incident!! How bizarre!! Sounds like you have quite the practical joker there Kell.

Tough love. I can hardly wait to hear your friend is hiding your cigarettes! After all, it is for your own good! I know, I know, nothing worse than a reformed smoker!

I like Cindy's signature line - it made me think that you should get soap-on-a-rope, KellKell!
