Personal rambling...

Time to go home.

Now there's a woman of few words....and probably all the time in the world to say them.

I think you need some time off.

My bad. I thought you said personal scrambling.

jbow


I think you need some time off.

That is a great and very accurate statement. It is a perfect example of how
time as become a nagging **** to every little aspect of my life.
 
After 57 years of most every minute of my time here I've had to listen and deal
with it.
 
Time for this, time for that, do you have the time?, will you make time?, is it time?....
I'm not joking one bit. I wish time would just go away.
 
 
Herb I have many watches. I don't know why...gifts..I don't wear them. Didn't when I was
young and why in the world would anybody wear them now?...time is plastered on everything
we look at.
 
Well it's wasted time I guess even talking about it. Crazy when ya meet a musician that
can't keep time isn't it?  I wonder how in the hell did they manage to screw that up?  I can't
escape from it and they can't keep track of it.
 
How can that ticking that everybody is brainwashed with not be embedded in their very bones?
 
Just weird. Much like guitarist that play for years and years and years that can't tune up to pitch
when they change their strings on their guitar......without the help of a tuner....where did they spend
their time? and on what?...
crazy huh?
 
 
 
 

I hate clocks. I hate having to deal with time. I know that the most relaxing part of my time-off from work is that I don't have a clock telling me it's time for anything.

 
Yeah .. .me too ... and we're not getting younger!
 
On top of it the major synthesizer designers? ... they were into clocks! Check out Roland, Korg and Yamaha in their history.
 
Kinda puts a different spin on the music having become so mechanical and industrial and commercial!
 
I'll **** some more in the bathroom later ... seems like a better place for it!

I haven't wore a watch in years either. I can't remember the last one I had.

There's a clock on my stove, microwave, coffee pot, cell phone, cordless phone, alarm clock in the bedroom, computer, laptop, playstation, dvd player, the house thermostat, car radio, truck radio, billboards, on the pump at gas stations, my vcr, timer for my Christmas lights, halloween lights, landscaping lights, kennel lights, outside garage lights ... I can't even take a dump without looking at a clock in my bathroom ...

Why the hell would I want to wear one on my wrist?

Since I've been out of work, I've lost all track of time. The days just melt together. It's kind of nice, but at the same time (<--- LOL), I'm losing my marbles. My short term memory is non existent any more. I've even had to start setting up reminders on my cell phone. Sometimes I just sit here in a daze for hours and suddenly realize, holy $hit, the wife will be home in 45 minutes and I just sat here all day drooling.

So, in a way, it's good to have all those things coming at you that you have to keep track of, because once you stop using that portion of your brain that processes all of that, I'm afraid it's gone for good. I'm only 41 and sometimes I can't remember something somebody told me 15 minutes ago and that's the God's honest truth. It's really scary.

Naptime.

Mosh! I was wondering where you were and now there you is.

Thanks ... you're making this ol'e'man cry! 
 
I've been around ... the past week have been really sick and had to leave work for the doctor ... but generally, I don't like to post stuff like that ... the only help/assistance I have asked for (and will donate!) ... that person won't even reply to the emails ... so I have decided that ... it's best that I stick to it alone ... I don't want people to feel sorry for me, or cry ... but disrespect ... that's another story!
 
It's ok ... I'm not worried about my clock ... I already threw it out a long time ago! Just give me the music and let me die in peace with it in my dreams! All else ... ashes to ashes, dust to dust ... a$$holes to a$$holes and what not ... won't matter to me one iota!

Do you think losing your marbles is directly related to not tracking time Bub?
 

I think it goes deeper than just that, but yeah, that's a big part of it I believe. The less you have to do, the less you have to organize, the less you have to keep track of, the less you end up using your brain, and I think the older we get, the harder it is to regain what you once had up there.

I think it all ties together.

I think we're perfect opposites.
When I'm performing by the clock- day job, and many tasks like mowing/yard work every weekend...
I feel like a robot and just doing the same ol same ol...it's when I'm in control of my life and can
perform as I feel is when I'm most active. That's when my brain hits overdrive.
 
II: Time to go to work, time for break, time for lunch, time to break, time to go home, time to eat, time
to go to bed...repeat 4 more bars.
Weekend. Clock stops. :II
 
There's the chart. It's been the chart for over 20 years. Now I look back and feel exactly has you except it was years that "melted together". I believe it's the clock that not only melted the years
but also made it exactly as you described - not having it, did to you. Memory issues...
I remember all my projects from my weekends at home...it's the years of daily company robot that
I can't recall.
They say life is short. I think if one could remember every day it may not seem so short.
 
Cool Bub. I feel you can also understand my view of the clock...even if it seems opposite.
 
 
 

You didn't take one of the brown tabs ...did you?

You might try one of the green ones... 
Substances such as LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline may affect our time perception. At higher doses time may appear to slow down, stop, speed up, go backwards or even seem out of sequence. In 1955, British MP Christopher Mayhew took mescaline hydrochloride in an experiment under the guidance of his friend, Dr Humphry Osmond. On the BBC documentary The Beyond Within, he described that half a dozen times during the experiment, he had "a period of time that didn't end for me".

Been there done that... lost the tee shirt.

I have severe sleep apnea and according to my doctors that can cause permanent memory loss problems due to lack of oxygen to the brain. This explains a lot doesn't it? LOL!

When I was a kid they didn't have the little breathing machines they have now that I use. I suffered with it up until 7 or 8 years ago.

When I was 13 I was in the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and this man did massive surgery on my throat to widen it so I could breathe. He removed my Uvula, most of my soft pallet, and he took a laser and burned away a lot of tissue in my esophagus to widen it. Tonsils and adenoids as well, but that's a common thing. It helped but didn't cure it.

So I think that's part of it, but I know guys who are a thousand times sharper than me that said they experienced the same thing I'm going through when they hit 38 ~ 40.

Ah well, what ya gonna do. :-) Time marches on! LOL!

Well I'm so tired of losing I got nothing to do
And all day to do it
I go out cruisin' but I've no place to go
And all night to get there
Is it any wonder I'm not a criminal?
Is it any wonder I'm not in jail?

Is it any wonder I've got too much time on my hands
It's ticking away with my sanity
I've got too much time on my hands
It's hard to believe such a calamity
I've got too much time on my hands
And it's ticking away, ticking away from me
Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands
Too much time on my hands

Today I feel like clocks and the somewhat negative
attitude for them has been made different.
I realize now that my perception isn't near as bad as it could be.

Amazing. Simply amazing. :)

I remember a tech finding out that something was indeed wrong
with my PC by the clock on it being minutes off.
