Living in the 3rd person

Mood: Tired
Listening to: Reasonable pop-type Friday mishy music

Today has been quite interesting in terms of myopic reality.  It's now 4pm or thereabouts and finally I realised that:

It's a nice day outside
The radio is playing nice Friday sounds
The day has almost gone
I've done a whole lot of work and not seen the time go by

I was looking at the clock on the wall and realised it's quarter to 4.  At this point I thought that because the day has been so hectic I have missed it and would like it to be earlier.  Of course unless i change time zones this isn't going to happen.  But just for a second I thought I could, if I wanted to.  And why not... who says it is 3:45pm...

I just had the feeling I was looking at myself look at myself through my eyes, as though my eyes belonged to the body that my mind has taken purchase within.

It's a strange feeling, but I am sure not uncommon.  Living in the 3rd person, anything is possible if you want it to be.
