It's almost like a dream: You are living the experience but are also viewing it from 3rd person. An example of this for me was the Paris Love Story ad Google put out during the superbowl.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnsSUqgkDwUI knew how unreasonable it was to get sappy over it...

But if I find myself there and happen to walk into the Gap and buy another pair of jeans, I'll be sure to blog about it :-)Thanks for commenting! @Laura
