Ever think you are going crazy?

This morning I woke up early at five fifty nine am to be exact. I rolled over and looked at my phone which doubles as an alarm clock. I realized I had to pee so I got up and peed and then realized I was very desperately thirsty. I went into the kitchen and got a bottle of water which I half chugged and then came back to bed and set the remainder of the water bottle on the nightstand and then decided I wanted a smoke before going back to sleep. I fuzzed my dog, lit a smoke, smoked it down and then glanced at my phone before settling back into sleep. It read five fifty nine exactly. I thought, that can't be right so I watched it switch to six am. I rechecked the alarm and chalked it up to misreading the digits earlier. Then tonight I was totally sucked in by "A Clash of King" and was reading and realized that I had to pee. I leaned over and picked up my cell from the table and it read 10:59. I thought crap, I have been reading for hours and have not realized it. I got up, peed, drank from the remainder of the original water bottle that I got up this morning and then thought I am hungry, I'll make some taquitos. I turned on the oven, got the pan out, put the taquitos in the oven and refilled the water bottle with filtered water and put it back in the fridge and then grabbed a cold bottle and went to sit back down and lit a cig and was halfway through when my logical brain said, "Oh you shouldn't eat this late and so I looked at the clock and it read 10:59. I fired up the computer and by the time it fired it read 10:30. I have been sitting here for an hour wondering if I should post about this. I think I am losing my mind. I also checked my cell phone time about ten times today and it was dead on.

Well, I have 12:28. Aren't we in the same time zone?

Broken clocks can mess with your head...

Time is an illusion. Believing there's some magical land where things have already happened or where things will happen is craziness. Perception may be flawed, but it is our reality.

You should check the back of your neck for ... er... implants?

Anyone know who this "Cameraman Jenn" is?
He's been a member since 2006 but has only made 3 posts.
And now he posts this crap out of the blue?

Anyway, when does the Last Dark dissection begin again?

So maybe I just need a new cellphone and I'm not really going crazy. The alarm never went off this morning. Luckily I woke in plenty of time. The alarms says it is set to go off. I'm hoping all the time warp stuff is just a wonky cell phone.

I'd take it in for service, anyhow.

My mom's house is very close to the Michigan state line. Michigan is a time zone ahead of us. It's a toss-up which transponder my phone will use to keep the time updated. Since I use my phone as a watch, I *never* freaking know what time it is when I'm there.

To make matters worse, toward the end there, she got kinda lackadaisical about changing the clocks when Daylight time started. So some would be on standard time, some on daylight time, and the one over the TV didn't work at all. It was...confusing....

Oh, it's your cell phone with the wrong time? Then there's something wrong with your cell service, since they send your phone the time periodically. You might be caught between two towers competing over the correct time or something.

Sometimes you can turn off the time update and let the phone keep its own time. You can try that and see if the problems go away.

I wish I was an Admin so I could change all of Jenn's post dates and other stuff.

No, did I say that out loud?
Sorry, my inner monologue is broken........

What I meant to say in my last post was, I...wait, where's my last post?

A déjà vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something.

Time? Time is just a measurement of events and moments.
Oops, gotta run. I'm outta time!
(BTW- I don't ever think I'm going crazy...
I AM crazy!

A few years ago I went through almost a month of waking up around 3:15 am (sometimes exactally) just like that guy in the "Amityville Horror". Talk about thinking one is going crazy.

and then thought I am hungry, I'll make some taquitos.

Just wanted to mention that I <3 supermarket taquitos even though I haven't had any for about a year and a half. What brand do you eat?

Personally, I often messed up on wake-up time in the past because I had a bad alarm clock. A good alarm clock has a button which you hold down, then press hour/minute to change the time. With that one, you just press the hour button and the time changes. And the button to turn the alarm off is right next to the hour button. You can see where this is going.

I'm crazy. I usually (try to) use the sun as a clock (I know a girl who's accurate w/in 10 minutes and I'm trying to learn) when the sun's up.
