Time is a horrible, horrible joke. You know that? We have a set of senses that's poorly equipped to measure time, it's completely morphic as far as how much time we might think has passed, with regards to how much. It's a little like trying to measure a distance with a length of string that may or may not be a given length. And of course there's the problem of sleep. Entire hours of the day in which you can't measure time.
God I hate sleep.
And so we invented clocks. Hooray, (ancient) technology.
ReplyDeleteClocks are very easily broken.
ReplyDeleteEqually easy to have fixed.
ReplyDeleteNot if you smash them.
ReplyDeleteThere's always another clock.
ReplyDeleteI prefer watches.
ReplyDeleteI have always had a near perfect sense of time. I can usually tell people the time within 5 to ten minutes of the actual time and I can decide when I want to wake up (unless I am sick). Some people have a really good handle on time and others do not. If you want to say it's a sense, I guess that works, but I've always thought it was more of an instinct.
