The Headphone Magic Trick
I had a real life magic trick happen to me today... It was pretty neat! I'll call it the "Re-Appearing Bose Earbud Trick". It will lose a lot in the retelling... but here goes.
The trick began last night when one of the rubber earbud caps came off my Bose headphones and disappeared. Poof! I knew it was lost in my car or at the motorcycle shop, I realized it was missing the moment I walked into my house last night. I looked everywhere for it this morning but it was clearly totally gone, never to be seen again. This afternoon I went to my desk drawer to fetch a replacement. The headphones ship with 3 pairs of rubber caps, one set for each of small, medium, and large. Since I had been using the large set, I expected to need to replace the missing one with a medium one. But no! The medium ones were there, the small ones were there, and there was one large one there, just like the one I was missing! It was as though the ear bud cap had been removed from me yesterday by magic and secretly snuck into my desk drawer by magic.
I'm still trying to figure out how this trick was done! I think I know, but I don't want to believe such a mundane explanation.
Truly this probably reads like a very boring story, it's too subtle... but I think interpreted by a good writer it could have been a sublime little story.
