I woke up early yesterday because I'm still on London time. I usually spend my first waking moments checking out the news and tech stuff, but I got side tracked by philosophy and brain science videos on TED. I usually get to bounce my philosophical and existential thoughts off my true love, which made me miss her. Provoked by the brain science video, I was acutely conscious of metacongnition and wondered why I think the thoughts I think. Something to keep my mind occupied as renovations continue.
We managed to plumb in the guts for the new tub and faucet in the first bathroom; a task that consumed as much time figuring out how to make everything fit as it did fitting them. I'd like to think I'm versed in plumbing, but there's always a little relearning that has to happen when it's been a while. I hope all the connections hold.
My uncle Mark and auntie Dawn were over on Friday night and we listened to some songs from Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan. If you're looking for a really good compilation of really good songs, check this out! My favourite so far is Sinead O'Connor's cover of Property of Jesus. After listening to her a few times, I thought to put on John Lennon's I Found Out and wanted to play my bass. Sometimes I think they don't make music like they used to, but then I listen to something like Hot Water Music's Drag My Body and I know it's just something older people say.
Somehow I twisted a muscle in the front of my neck this morning. My mom thought it needed a massager treatment.
It didn't work.
