Have Yourself a Merry Little Coincidence

Once again I begin a blog with a disclaimer that I don't believe in much of anything... but... just the same... one thing that's REALLY getting to me is all these inexplicable coincidences some of which I have faithfully recorded here:

Happiness, Holidays, Hiccups, and Hugs

Well here's the latest. I am interested in a young lady who works in the same casino I do. Recently she sent me a text lamenting the bygone practice of creating a mix tape or CD to show someone your affection. It's been replaced it seems with the practice of buying things... putting a price on love and perverting love into pimpery. Or something like that. I definitely took some poetic license there... but that was the gist all the same. Later she texted me again to say I needed to visit a mutual acquaintance at work when I arrived in order to receive something a description of which she did not offer. This intrigued me and I decided to make a mix CD for my young lady and have it delivered in return. And that's what I did.

Now it happens that my young lady and I disagree completely upon the subject of Christmas. Whereas I refuse adamently to discuss Christmas in any way except during the month of December, she feels every day is a good day to let Christmas influence you with its magical spirit. So as a concession to her philosophy... the first song on the CD is my favorite Christmas song... namely Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas by Coldplay. The other 16 tracks are all dance songs or Disney songs. The first one is the only Christmas tune. Okay so I go to work and I find the mutual acquaintance and she gives me an envelope and I give her the CD entitled Subtle Happy Tunes ~ Replete With Erotic Subliminal Messages (this last bit being a joke of course) and she agrees to deliver it to my lady of interest. So I go to the Employee Dining Room and open the envelope and find a card upon the front of which are the words (are you ready for this?):

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

And though I'm reeling with amazement at the coincidences life relentlessly inundates me with... I don't see the harm in taking this most recent one as a gigantic recommendation (from that department of the universe that happens to concern itself with yours truly) to fully enjoy the upcoming Holiday season. And that's just what I intend to do.
