Maybe it’s just me

Is it the last gasp of Mercury retrograde or do I simply need a break?

During a meeting this morning the next topic under discussion was “Summer Program” and the first thing I said (just for clarity, you know!) was “This summer, right?”

At which point my colleague just looked at me while I oh-so-slowly caught up to reality, saying with a laugh: “Oh right, we’re already in October!”

Wrong again, but by this point we were laughing too hard to care.

Later in the day I sent an urgent text about a project deadline which had been moved up to “TODAY, Sept 15!” — to which I received a calm reply that the 15th was two days away, on Friday.

At which point I remembered that today was Wednesday and there was no need to panic.

I really kind of wonder if there’s something wonky going on with the time space continuum right now.

Or is it just me?
