please--you tell me

what does this mean?

1. you're holding a soda in your left hand as you and your honey are riding along in his truck and you ask him if he'd like a drink and when he reaches toward the soda, your right hand gets a mind of its own and reaches for the soda at the exact same time and moves it out of his reach.

2. you're heading to the car for dinner out with your honey and your kid and you grab one of those little reese's peanut butter cups from the candy dish on the bar, and as you walk through the garage, you open the wrapper, mouth watering in anticipation, and then your right hand that is holding the candy tosses it into the trash can in the garage and your left hand that is left holding the wrapper--foil and that little wax paper cup--instantly realizes that it is not holding anything you want to put in your mouth.

it is as if my hands are no longer willing to work together and the right one is possessed with a devilish spirit and the left one is so tired of the hands getting blamed for messing up again.

Oh, I think I know the answer to this one. It's stress. When you are under stress, your brain is so caught up that it stops sending little signals.

Or you have a subconscious anger towards your husband AND peanut butter cups.

Personally, I think peanut butter cups belong in the garbage anyway! As to the soda...
