A goldmine of things to check out here, and I'm so glad I brought this up for just that reason. I look forward to the interesting reading about the effects of weather on our health and the lunar cycle's effect, too.
However, I have figured my original question out! Here it is:
Biorhythm!
Yes, and to my fellow baby boomers, do you remember the biorhythm craze? I think it was in the 70s or early 80s. There was even biorhythm software.
The biorhythm theory says we have three cycles:
Most biorhythm models use three cycles: a 23-day "physical" cycle, a 28-day "emotional" cycle, and a 33-day "intellectual" cycle. Although the 28-day cycle is the same length as the average woman's menstrual cycle and was originally described as a "female" cycle (see below), the two are not necessarily in any particular synchronization. Each of these cycles varies between high and low extremes sinusoidally, with days where the cycle crosses the zero line described as "critical days" of greater risk or uncertainty. Article name: Biorhythm, from Wikipedia"
Wikipedia remarks that some consider it a pseudo-science. My threshold for belief is my own experience, so this is the answer that solves it for me.
Predictable: that's me. I hate to think that I am so predictable, but the longer I live, the more I realize I do the same stuff.
For example, yesterday I planted some garlic chives and in the plastic bag of seeds was a seed marker all made out "garlic chives, 3/24"
. I commended myself for being so organized, thinking I had made out the tag and forgotten about it, yet I soon realized the tag was made last year. So I was planting garlic chives on the same day as last year.
Here's an example that's even more remarkable. I went to a client's to photograph some merchandise for their web site. When I got there, I realized I'd forgotten the camera card they gave me to use for such situations. So in order to get these large-size images to my own computer, I took the photos and put them on my Google account. When I went on to my Google account, I found some photographs for that very same day for that very same client, one year ago.
In other words, the previous year I had gone there to photograph, had forgotten my camera card, and had to do the very same thing--put them on my Google space for retrieval later.
I feel like a wind-up toy of my own making.
