A visual portmanteau clustered in my thoughts this morning......I mean some really odd associations... searching the house for the 'shoe shelf bracket' that I bought 20 years ago from the 'sets sale' for Pulp Fiction, I donned the chocolate-brown coat that Travolta was wearing in a scene (in which the 'shoe shelf' is also shown.....and, thinking of what to make for a very late lunch, decided on Chili.....having 'misremembered Travolta's character, Vincent Vega, as "Chili" for an as yet unknown reason......maybe a faulty neuron link in my aging grey matter....... Well, I made the chili, anyway......and eating it, wearing the chocolate brown overcoat, on the 'chilly' back steps.....pondered.....'Who the (#*@ was "Chili"......Maybe, I'll remember, as if it were important...at all! Now....to hang the 'bracket' on a wall and top it off with a pair of ugly 80's platform heels.......Oh....Whew!....I remember......"Chili Palmer", also a Travolta Character....from "Be Cool" ... There is a 'continuum' to these associations......they're not totally "free'...but they can dwell in randomness sometimes....Where's the amphetamine and dextroamphetamine-laced chocolate shake? ...I thought I put it on the kitchen counter....on the chocolate overcoat.....It must be in the 'dressing room' with Nancy Sinatra's mid-calf boots.......hmmmm....there's absolutely no wear on their "souls".....I thought they were 'made for walking'......(press 'return'....'new paragraph'....I'm going on a magic carpet ride on that old rug that's rolled up in the closet!}
