Do you ever find yourself asking profound questions?

The other day, I was down to my last 12-hour Sudafed. It's the medicine I take to help fight my allergies. I decided to take half of one. But then the profound question came to me: If I take half of one, do I get my usual level of protection from a runny nose and sneezing for six hours? Or do I get 12-hours of half-assed protection? Do you ever find yourself asking deep questions like this?

My favorite questions are the ones I ask myself when something goes slightly wrong or I do not feel too good and then I stand in front of the mirror and ask myself Are you dying? Will, whatever is wrong pass by? Are there people worse off than you? Then when I have answered all the questions I give myself one more look and say Then there is nothing at all wrong with you so upwards and forwards,

I'd just get another pack out of the cupboard. We keep stuff like that because I have so many allergies.

@TheHorse Stop by here. There are three or four extra packs in the hall cupboard.

Sometimes I do, especially when my brain goes into over thinking mode.

@TheHorse I think it depends on what sends my mind in a sprial. Sometimes I'll be asking myself if I really do need this or that. Or whatever the case might be. Like weighing the options if I wanted to stack the house high with foods we don't need or not. Like weighing the pros and cons of two boxes of mashed patatos instead of one.

I sometimes wonder about trivial things like the meaning of life but now the Sudafed Question is going to occupy all my time.

@TheHorse It's not your fault. It probably would have occurred to me sooner or later, anyway.

I'm constantly nearly certain that all the folks saying we're in a simulation are, in fact, correct. Two days ago my sister texted me and my mom called me at damn near the exact same time with the same thought. They live several states apart and had not talked to each other that day. It was the creepiest thing, I was like NEITHER OF YOU TALK TO ME FOR THE REST OF THE DAY I AM WIGGED OUT. I'm convinced some programmer forgot who to assign that communication to and accidentally sent it to both of them.

@TheHorse Oh, I was having an issue with communications between my bank and CA tax department, lots of back and forth nonsense. My sister and mom both offered me the same advice about it, which wouldn't be weird in itself, but the fact that they did at the literal exact same time just randomly partway through the day without talking to each other - that freaked me out lol.

Deep questions are part of my being myself. I try to keep my mouth shut near some people though because they could think that I´m insane.

Every day but goes like this. If I sell my soul a little bit and make a living money or maybe just sell the whole thing so I can be the next Kim Kardashian. So I been doing a little at a time hoping for better options but there is none. Should have went Kim Kardashian's way. Would have worked better but problem with that would not be able to live with myself, so maybe I just will keep selling my soul a bit at time, at least I will live with myself for longer.
