I have a question for the Collective Paddle Wise List Knowledge....

This morning the wife send me out to do shopping and get breakfast.  As I was
leaving my subdivision, I got to the stop sign where I'm supposed to turn right
to get to the grocery store.  At the stop sign, I'm heading east, I noticed a
car  on the opposite side of the  road heading west.  Understand, it was not the
car that got my interest, it was the Necky Aruluk III kayak with a off white
bottom, yellow top, grean seam stripe with matching green hatches, that had my
attention.  So engrossed was I in the kayak that I turned left instead of right
and followed the kayak, errr, car down the street.  Why, I don't know, its just
something I had to do!  At the next light the kayak, err car, turned left
heading toward the lake and I drove straight on.  A couple of miles up the road,
after I quit wondering which part of the lake the kayak was heading for,  I
realized I was driving 180 degrees from my intended course, so I did a lean turn
with a bow sweep to reverse course, errr,I did a U Turn and headed on my
origional float plan, err, shopping.

Now the questions.....

Do I need mental health help because I'm following strange kayaks?
Should I tell my wife?
Is this a sign I'm not in my kayak enough?
Or is it just normal for a PaddleWisenhiemer?

Thank You For Your Help!
