I've noticed that nearly all my coincidences are about absinthe.
So here are two more.
In Interview With the Vampire, Tom Cruise's character is tricked into drinking blood from the dead. He asks if they were drunk on absinthe.
I wrote the word "absinthe" on a duotang, and my friend Eric knew what it was. That's rare in my parts.

The name "Carr" came up in my Government class a couple of days ago.
And there's a minor character on Yu-Gi-Oh named "Croquet", although his name might actually be spelled differently.

A book I recently read featured an incestuous relationship between a father and his daughter. And in a book-store, I saw a book entitled Golem.

That reminds me: in my lit class we read a story in which the term "golem" is used to describe a stupid person.

My friend was writing her name on her pencil case so she wrote Carr and then the ink in her marker ran out before she got to write ie.
The people who take gym get to play croquet.

I read a book the other day and the main character's best friend was named Flannery.

My Social Studies class is doing something rather like Festival Internationale on October third; we're each bringing in a delicacy from out ethnic background and providing cultural entertainment to experience multiculturalism.

The Discworld book Going Postal involves a golem(I'm pretty sure there's another Discworld book with a golem, but I haven't yet read it).

The Discworld book Going Postal involves a golem(I'm pretty sure there's another Discworld book with a golem, but I haven't yet read it). Several golems and their activities are crucial to the plot of Feet of Clay. And I think I saw golems mentioned somewhere else recently - something about children making a figure out of clay... |

The other day in English, there was a mention of incest. Also, my teacher asked if anyone had seen Michelangelo's "David" sculpture, and mentioned it being really powerful and humbling, like Flan's experiance with it.

In an article about an author in the newspaper, it mentioned that one of her books was called The Three Incestuous Sisters.

Yesterday, there was an article on the news in which there was a clip of video with a plaque reading "Old Absinthe House."

We read "Fall of the House of Usher" by Poe which hinted at incest in the family.
Now we're reading a short story by Flannery O'Connor.

On Medium on Monday, there was a forced incestuous relationship between father and daughter; the daughter's name was Cynthia.

Ick...
I've heard arguements about which grades are more important for college and Flan was always saying that senior year grades were important.
Also my cousin mentioned, in an lj entry, someone named Mr. Carr and biology in the same sentence. I'll have to ask her if there's a biology teacher at her school named Mr. Carr.
There was something else that reminded me of Flan that happened... what was it. this isn't it but we had homeroom today and we don't usually...
