I was walking through town the other day - well, its the leper colony where my job is - when an old thought was brought to mind.
My friend and I used to discuss this theory about there only being so many differen people around, and that if you go from town to town you see copies of people you know. Also reminds me of a Simpsons episode where they steal the lemon tree from Shelbyville. Anyway...
..Its true. Kind of. One of my new housemates sounds and acts exactly like a girl I used to work with before I moved here. Several people I work with in my new 'job' could be caricatures of people from my old job - same characteristics, looks, actions etc.
Gives a kind of eerie deja vu feeling to everything - like a bad acid trip. It only seems to be the freakshow characters that are present from town to town.
Its nice to have some familiriaty, but its just a shame that there is no-one here who is a copy of someone Id actually like to see.
The kind of special people I miss from back home are sadly missing...its only the special needs people who are duplicated.
Pity

Hmmm....I might elaborate on this topic further at a later date.
