Yeah, old and cold are no fun at all, especially in Florida. I could turn up the heat but in a house as old as this one it only makes the gas company happy. I’m working on an apartment in the cold. It’s concrete block, built in the mid 1950s. I really can’t see it being too attractive at these temperatures.
]]>Awsome! You kitty lovers will love this! 😀
This dog was shaking in fear until a black cat neared his cage
]]>I also enjoyed laying on a beach listening to the waves & watching clouds flow past… I’d sometimes imagine images in them. I got good after awhile. But I had to force myself to do that. Otherwise, they were just clouds.
Sometimes, I’ll have a dream whilst sleeping. I always reach a point where I’ll wake up and think “Nope! That’s just totally ridiculous!” Get a drink & go back to bed. I used to dream, or should say, I remembered dreams, mostly when I was younger. I hardly ever do now. Probably my mind deciding “I’ll keep this buried down here. No point in the consciousness.” or something. 😆 Our minds are pretty devious, especially @ self-preservation.
Funny you mentioning acting. I love a great movie/show/performance, & admire a good actor’s talents! Even envy a little sometimes. I have several professional actors following me on Twitter. Recently the cast of Lucifer, which I’d not heard about! I d/l from Amazon & I’m loving the irony!! It’s brilliant! 😆
I could also be because I’ve recently been diagnosed with Tinnitus in my left ear. I hear constant white noise there. It’s not too bad yet, but is annoying! I use headphones a lot now. Luckily I have a really good pair of Sennheiser HD598’s for music & video’s. And Gigabyte Force H3X for gaming/general.
*shrug* Getting older sux! 🙄 😆
]]>Your training went beyond mine because you were making decisions that couldn’t be edited later – they were final. It means you would have a hard time getting employment as an actor, but no one would ever convince you that an inkblot was anything other than an inkblot. I was the same with clouds, i.e. I didn’t see anything other than the type of cloud and whether to expect turbulence.
Psych docs have a real problem with people who insist on reality 😈
]]>I’ve done similar visual & audio tests before. I’ve done a few Rorschach tests in the 70’s & 80’s. I listed several possible representations of the blot. The first was always “Reality: An ink stain.” Then: “Fantasy: butterfly, angel, enraged demon, an enticing lady on a beach, clouds… I could go on if you like.” They’ll say: “Yes. But what was the first image that came to mind?” Me: “All of them.” They usually just put them away. Most shrinks hate me. 😉 😆
]]>Lest I forget – С Рождеством Христовым!
]]>The first time I saw this, I didn’t hear anything, but I was thinking “boing, boing, boing.” When I read that I was suppose to be “hearing” thuds, I was thinking “thud, thud, thud.”
I guess I’m just no fun.
]]>I can’t believe that they have no one who can use a word processor.
Pretty much my reaction, because I turned off the sound on my box and went back to check. My brain told me I was ‘hearing’ something that I knew didn’t exist. Another version of auto-complete.
]]>On the GIF I “hear” a thud, but I don’t actually hear it. My brain says “there should be a thud here,” and I wince as if hearing a thud here, but then a few milliseconds my brain says “wait, what?”.
