Hey moonrambler, here's a long one but I'll share it with you.
It's drawn out over a week or so. One evening I was watching the movie American Psycho, I love Christian Bale's performance in that movie. I love the scene where he starts going off on how great Huey Lewis and the news are. I like the way he carried himself, minus the murdering part. (no I'm not a killer, it's ok). Bret Easton Ellis is also a favorite author.
Thinking of this I'm in a parking lot and I see a guy with a t-shirt from American Psycho. I'd never seen one before. For a minute I thought "cool. Just remember, killing is wrong." lol.
So maybe a week or so later, I'm thinking of how I am getting geared up to release some of my music online, but Im thinking that for some reason 31 is old to do that. So I think, no that's crazy. Many of my heroes wrote great music well into old age. I love David Bowie, so he was sort of my template for that. So I'm thinking, old age is cool, david bowie, old age. For a few days. Kind of obsessed with it.
I see this guy in another parking lot... an old guy with a big white beard, probably in his sixties. He's wearing a freaking David Bowie ziggy stardust t-shirt. It was one of the weirdest things I'd ever seen, it just seemed out of place. And it reminded me of when I saw that American Psycho t-shirt.
T-shirt manifestations. So when I saw this I thought "wow, that was really trippy. It reminded me of the time I saw that American Psycho t-shirt. Now if I saw ANOTHER reference to american psycho right now, that would just blow me away."
Fifteen minutes later I'm renting a movie and the kid that works there walks in and he's holding the book "American Psycho."
No I'm not a killer.
