Day 2944: Living in the time of Covid.

"Paul": stamp person, junk mail collage on 8x13" old cardboard.

 

An old piece of cardboard (8x13") &(1-1/4"x 5/8" postage stamp. A rocky start.

Yesterday's silly blog mentioned stamps, here.

Today I see articles and videos about stamps.

Do you notice that? When you are focused on 

one thing and then it turns up again and again. 

Well, there is a name for it. I looked it up.

Psychologists call this the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon; 

more commonly, they refer to it as a frequency illusion.

I like that there is a name for it.

I even looked up a few of my old stamp people to share. 
 

Baader-Meinhof phenomenon, who knew?

I read about,  Jeff Tweedy’s memoir,  

Let’s Go (So We Can Get Back).

"A Memoir of Recording and Discording with Wilco, Etc." doesn't
really appel yo me, but oh that title!
Have you ever said that? Either I have or someone in my family has, as it rang a bell. In these crazy days, we find ourselves treading water, it probably doesn't seem out of line.
But when I take time to think, I say why go?  seems we used to hurry a lot? Not as much anymore? Have you heard that phrase?  From you or who?
I find it kinda fascinating. 
Let me know?
