I went to Safeway to pick up some mushrroms this afternoon and came close to a freaking out kind of moment. The place was done in earth tones, and had subdued lighting and a Starbucks. I’d sort of known about these kinds of things but it was creepy. I didn’t look through the aisles at all the products that’d weird me out. Just stuck with the mushrooms.
One thing I’ve noticed about me is that I’m way more scattered than I remember being. The other day I walked half an hour to the post office only to get there without my mailables. Then I tried to find some stuff out at the UPS store but the girl was new and just stared at me when I spoke. Then I said more to try to make sense but completely didn’t.
I used to be able to chalk that kind of thing up to being in China. Now it appears I just have trouble with life.
Maybe it is just because China has influended the entire world into acting like it knows what is going on, but as soon as you scrape the surface you realize that noone has any fucking clue what is going on. Kind of like your response to reading this right now…
