time thing

i think i just experienced one of those incidences that bashar has talked about where ‘time gets slippery’.  here’s what happened:

decided to run out to freddies for groceries before going to pick wrey up from school.  thought if i hurried, i should have just about enough time to get over there and back, perhaps needing to go from there directly to the school parking lot.  glanced at my watch before leaving home.  it was 1:28.  (i go to get wrey at 2:30).  drove to freddies and found my usual parking spot right by the front door untaken, yay.  looked at my watch again as i was going into the store, only about 3 minutes had passed!  wow!  how could that be!?  there was the usual traffic and such on the roads; ordinarily the trip from being in my room at home to being at the store shopping takes about 15-20 mins or so, minimum.  i was thinking then that maybe this was one of those times like bashar has talked about.  

so i went into the store and started looking for the stuff i needed, ended up walking back and forth across near-about the whole store a couple times cause i didn’t remember the items in a ‘progression-of-aisle’s’-oriented manner.  did the self-checkout thing, which usually takes a bit longer, and even dug bills and coins out of my bag cause my bank acct is empty at present.   got back to the car and checked the time again to see if i needed to go directly to the school parking lot or if i had time to swing by home and put the groceries away.  it wasn’t even a quarter till 2 yet!!  i couldn’t believe it!!  i drove home, normal traffic, stopping for pedestrians in front of intel and such, and while it took a bit longer to get home than the 3 mins it took to get there, it was still only about 1:50 when i got back into my house.  i made the whole trip in under 25 minutes!!  blows me away.  now it is 2:30 and time to go get wrey... after writing this, and being interrupted in the middle by a somewhat lengthy phone call.     i love it.
