Empathy

Had a weird wave of deja vu this afternoon. Actually several really strong waves of deja vu, followed by a strange feeling of clarity. I feel like a walking psychology experiment... (Let's see if critical sleep dep and intense externally-applied stress will increase the subject's empathic sensitivity).

It sounds weird, but I swear my hearing is better too. I was listening to Bowery Electric's Freedom Fighter on the randomizer (it's a song expressing shock and disgust at the constant state of warfare we've been in for the last fifteen years). I've listened to this song I don't know how many times, I really like it. But today, in the opening tones of the song, I heard a crowd chanting faintly but clearly "no more war!" in the background. Kinda cool, unless I'm just imagining it and I'm in the first stages of some kind of nervous breakdown.

heh, yep, it's there. I had to put it on and check as soon as I saw your post. That's not to say you aren't suffering from a nervous breakdown... because you probably are, you wreck. GET SOME SLEEP!
