Full Moon Lunatics...

Did you feel that?!?!? I know it wasn't just me, right?? There was definitely a pull at mankind's mental state. Sort of like when you see that random string hanging from your sweater so you give a little tug and the next thing you know, you've come undone. Literally.



Today I stood all day with my mental yarn at my ankles. Yards of it. I was going to just cut it off but then I saw all my co-workers had the same bundle at their feet. Hmmm. So I carried on, tripping most of the day.


I knew I had experienced this phenomena before but just couldn't put my finger on it. It took a 5th grade autistic boy to explain that we had a full moon and that the lunatics were on the loose. He then proceeded to explain that Luna was Latin for moon and that the lunatics come out when one is in the sky. Made sense. I had a sudden flashback to hospital work and how the ER and Labor and Delivery would swell to capacity with the bulging moon.


So with this new found knowledge I am now going to be checking the calendar frequently. I want to make sure I pack a pair of knitting needles in my purse... just in case I come undone or need to fend off a lunatic.
