Knock on Wood


The other day when I was in Starbucks (pretty good start to a story, huh!)...

Anyway, the two women sitting next to me were discussing the benefits of Eastern medicine (not that I was eavesdropping) when one of them frantically grabbed the chair next to me and exclaimed “Here.  This is made out of wood.”  She was so absorbed in her story that she wasn’t thinking (she didn't realize she was sitting on a wooden chair), and when she came to reality, she was embarrassed to be caught… 

As I have a tendency to do the same thing, I let her off the hook.  It’s not that I believe something negative will happen, I just don’t want to take the chance that it might…  It’s always nice to confirm that I’m not the only oddball out there :-)
