the time sense

lately i've found myself just obsessed with time.

How much do i have? When is this going to happen? it seems to be going fast, it seems to be going slow. Look how much of it has passed. oh wow is it still only 8:24?

i love using electronic timers. i like to have a real, concrete sense of time passing. An anchor to my time sense. A little lifeline that snaps you back into the regular flow. Speaking of timers, my food in in the microwave. i'll be right back. it beeped, but i don't know how long ago. See? i set it for 1 minute.

i just thought of a great name for a band: 'scream of consciousness' Cool, huh? i'm gonna go put it on MEMEHOSE and then continue eating dinner.

probably this wierdness is becauseof finals. i really do have until Wednesday to turn in three projects. Been staying up late working on stuff. So my time sense will already be a little skewed.

now the interesting think about cannabis is the time distortion effect- the warping of your time sense. Now this seems al little random usually, but- what if you could control it?

i remember- i wanted to mention that i've been using it to extend time in order to get more work done. perceptually at least. having mentioned it, i'll stop procrastinating and get to work.
