arriving home in the evening i go to the fish, i have to hand feed one as he can't see very well, plus the water dragons all come out for their share so feeding time is a big deal. i noticed the water level of the pond, it's dropped so much it's easy to notice, half full, half empty, a dramatic difference from the way it was when i left. well i assume it's just one of those freaky natural things that occur and then after my duties i go inside and have a shower. next thing i notice is in my bedroom all the plugs are unplugged, now this is not natural as i never unplugged them. 
the first response is to check the rest of the house, some one may be inside, i move through the place, checking the back doors but it's all secure and there's no one else here.
after a good nights sleep i potter around pushing the events of yesterday to the back of my mind, i find myself having to head for the shops so i jump in the car, it starts to rain. 
over the last few days i been listening to sk's new cd the idllyist in the car, i usually play a cd to death until it's in my dna and i'm enjoying the unpredictability of this one, it's so diverse, lot's of interesting elements to discover. steve plays all the instruments on this one, it's a really solo album and it's so chock filled with his influences i'm still uncovering them all, so i drive along the coast listening to it, track four suddenly i notice something really strange in the mix, only it's not the mix. the song starts to get louder, louder and louder until as i stare at the cd player i'm watching the volume level rising. 
it's not until i reach down and intervene that normality resumes. 
it's hard to know what's going on, i think i may have picked up a thirsty spook who likes good music but how does this explain the plugs? perhaps that was the spooks way of letting its arrival be known, i just don't know. 
i don't mind sharing my life with a ghost, just as long as it behaves itself and knows the rules. i'll keep ya posted.
