Thank god for syndication; TNT at its best. I watched Charmed this morning when I woke up (surprise surprise). This was the episode where, in the beginning of their pregnancy, Piper and Leo were having difficulty understanding each other and their life demands. So, as a way to sort of give them marriage counselling, the baby made them switch powers so they could better understand each other. Piper became a whitelighter, and she was having trouble focusing on the voices of her charges and figuring out where to find them. Leo told her to just relax, clear her mind, focus, and then she would find them.
--------------------------------------
This morning I couldn't find my dog, Tiffany. I looked all over downstairs, and she wasn't there, I looked upstairs, she wasn't there. I went out in the backyard calling her, she wasn't there. I went in the front calling her, she wasn't there. Me, mom, and joey grabbed our car keys and cell phones and went out looking for her. I drove around the neighborhood calling her name, asking people if they'd seen her. No one saw her, but all promised to keep an eye out and took my address. As I drove around, I could hear Leo saying "just relax and focus, you'll find her." So as I drove around, I relaxed and focused, and before I made a turn to go down another street, something told me to go back home. I tried to ignore it, but it got stronger. I went back home, got out of my car, and started to call for Tiffany. This time I heard a bark, but it was far away. I could swear it was her, so I called again. She barked again, and this time it sounded closer. I called again, she barked again, coming closer and closer. I went to the backyard and there she was. She went through the fence and travelled through the woods behind the houses of our neighborhood. *whew* I have never been more scared in my life, and I think she was scared too. Lesson learned once again: Always listen to your intuition. Lesson #2: WATCH CHARMED.
