“Quantum Leap” depicts a conversation that happens sometimes when I am hanging out with my fiancé. I tend to be in my mind a lot. Especially when watching tv. Maybe it’s the passive experience that enables my idle mind to wander. Either way, my fiancé sometimes ask what I’m thinking about. She often regrets it and hardly ever relates. I can’t control the stuff I think about. It just pops in there. I once read an essay that described the mind as a passive receiver of thought. I guess I’m meant to passively receive anxiety-inducing thoughts about quantum leaping into tv and movies…
PS – Bonus points to anyone who can name all of the movies referenced in this post.
If one were to quantum leap into a show, would they have to follow the script? Because I don’t like getting punched, would hate to be eaten by an Orc and I’m not decisive enough to figure which gang should run New York.
