Glitch in the Matrix

Yesterday, my boyfriend asked me for a cup of water. We keep our cups on the kitchen counter, so I naturally went there to grab his cup—but only mine was there. So, I reached into the kitchen cabinet to get a new one.

While filling the cup with water, I turned to check the spot on the counter just to make sure, and yes, there was only one cup—mine. (Mine is pink, his is green.)

And that's not really trivial to me because we have our own custom cups. They’re always in their spot on the kitchen counter unless they’re being washed. So, it was unusual for only mine to be there.

I handed him the water, then I went back to the kitchen. And suddenly, there was his green cup sitting right next to my pink one, in its usual spot!
