i have an internal bout every week or so over time units(seconds, minutes, hours). i mean some seconds take minutes and some hours take seconds. for example,somewhere a kid is trying to break his personal record for holding his breath which until now has been exactly one minute. he gets passed the 55 second mark, little more than 5 seconds until he breaks the record,suddenly seconds triple in length, while somewhere else, during the exact same 60 second span, some guy sprints(on his tiptoes) through a QUICKSTOP store, kicks in a bathroom door, flips on the light, struggles with hand to hand combat with his belt and button,rips open his fly, then pauses, and when the pressure eases momentarily he leaves his feet and lands at terminal velocity on the coldest, grossest, finest most wonderful thing his two fat cheeks have every been privileged to touch. the value and length of a second is relative to circumstance. why does the fifteen minutes between snoozes last for only a blink of an eye and the last fifteen minutes at work on friday last 6 hours.
temperature: i shouldnt even have to expand on this. how is it that i can be sweating hot, in a room that is 70 degrees, and my wife have blue hands because she is so cold? i know there is a reasonable answer circulatory or some shit but really it is remarkable that neither party can identify with what the other is going through.
