I was gaizing across a vast distance at something clearly concentrated and far far away. I almost felt like I'd lose my balance. The feeling of
spatial distance was strong. Other than that moment, one night I was looking at Aldebaran and I can't remember the details of it, but the next day I
read something about Aldebaran and something was odd about it. Funny I can't recall. Maybe it was a feeling? Not sure. But something - like a
coincidence - made me remember it.edit on 3-12-2011 by jonnywhite because: (no reason given)
Wow. You don't find what you just wrote, odd? I mean.....you were looking at Aldebaran (that's in the Pleiades's, right?) then......you
coincidentally read about it the next day (or, were you looking it up?) but yet, you don't remember?
Me's thinks you were having one of them-there ethereal (or missing time) experiences.
Try to remember. If not for you. For me

because I am very curious for some odd reason.
