A Disturbance in the Force
Hello All
First post - been looking at the site for a while, and have a few things I'd like to post over time. This is my first because it has happened yet again.
For as long as I can remember (I'm 46 now), I've experienced what I call, for lack of anything better, "mini time-warps". They involve objects, not me. In the simplest form, I'll give this example: It is now 1:17am. About 4 hours ago, I put my pocket knife on the coffee table next to my recliner after opening a box with it, and sat down to watch TV for a bit before bed. After about an hour or so, I went to pick up the knife, put it back in my pocket and head upstairs for bed. The knife was not there. I had not moved from that chair during that time from when I put it down until then. I went to bed without worrying about it - this happens to me a lot, so I no longer get concerned. I've been having back problems, and the bed was not helping, so I just now decided to get up again and come downstairs to watch TV for a bit. Sure enough, there lay my knife - right where I left it hours earlier.
Now, I know what you are thinking; someone moved it, it's a gag by my wife and/or daughter, etc. Nope, they were both already in bed when I went up, and are still asleep right now. AND this is not, as mentioned, the first, second or 100th time this has happened. It used to happen years ago while I was still living at home with my mom/dad/sisters. It happened while I was in the Air Force, traveling all over the world, and often living completely by myself - no one around to "mess with me". AND, it happens to others in my presence. My daughter will come to me, looking for something that she is CERTAIN she just laid down "right here, daddy". We look for a few minutes, then I just tell her, "don't worry about it - it will be back in a little while". We forget about it, and sure enough, go back some time later and it will be right there, exactly where she said she left it. My mom and dad have also experienced it, and still do to this day, even with me not living there.
I don't know what it is; poltergiest, time-warps, dimensional warps, I have no idea. But it's been happening for years and shows no sign of letting up. It happens to objects, books, glasses, even drinks, TV remotes, etc. So far, I've never lost a car and the wife and kid are still here, so I guess it doesn't affect people. It has never caused any problem or harm in any way - it's just as if the object "didn't exist" in that place/time anymore, then suddenly, DID exist again. I'm used to it - it doesn't scare or worry me, but just very curious.
Anyone else have similar experiences?
