Bright Orb Just After the Anomaly

We see below a bright orb I photographed in the first photo I took after noticing yet another example of a rubber band anomaly I have seen well over 20 previous times. When the anomaly occurs, I will suddenly notice a rubber band on the floor of my living quarters with me having no explanation as to how the rubber band got there (I always immediately clean up all small objects from the floor as soon as I see them). In this case the anomaly occurred after 5:00 PM EST, with the rubber band being in a very noticeable position only a meter in front of where I had sat for most of the day, without previously noticing such a rubber band.  The windows were all closed, ruling out any "gust of wind" explanation.

Postscript: A few minutes after I published the text above, while alone in the room mentioned above, I noticed another rubber band on the floor, the appearance of which I cannot account for. It is shown below (the black cord is one leading from my PlayStation machine to its controller resting on the machine about a foot above the floor).  After finding the first rubber band, I had carefully looked around to see whether there were any others, and noticed nothing in the spot shown below.  My experience here is similar to that reported in my post here, although that post describes something more dramatic, involving three rubber bands rather than just two.  We have here today in the span of a few minutes the sighting of two different rubber bands on the floor, neither of which I can explain, both in very noticeable positions, both involving  a kind of "I should have seen that if it had been there for more than a few minutes" situation. Very strange. 

An interesting speculation is that some mysterious power or invisible presence capable of moving matter may prefer to produce manifestations involving small, lightweight objects, because those objects are more easily moved. 

Post-postscript: On four of the next five days there was another similar "hard-to-explain rubber band on the floor" anomaly, each involving a single rubber band, all near the area shown above, all not far from my TV set. I have now seen an anomaly like this more than 25 times.
