Our minds make really strange connections sometimes... And yet, that's how our memory works, by connecting events together, associating them with feelings, and whatever we perceived from our senses. That's why our memory is at best a subjective approximation of what happened.
But memory is not really what I want to talk about in this post.
I am not particularly fond of air conditioning devices because I tend to catch a cold when using them, even if I don't set low temperatures.
That's why I sometimes use it to cool the room while I'm not there, but not while I work.
We are pretty fortunate to have the house well isolated too, so much so that when a worker came by this afternoon he thought we have AC on. We also learned some tricks to let as little sun or hot air go in as possible during hot days, and it makes a difference.
Anyway, as I was sitting in my chair about to write my post, my mind wondered around. A heatwave started this week and looks like my mind doesn't like that. I started thinking how good it would feel to be next to a pool and jump right in.
Well, no pool, so I guess we'll both have to settle for a shower. :)
Maybe just this one, to trick my mind, lol:
However, that's not how the train of thoughts ended.
And this is when it became... strange.
After thinking about a cooling pool, my next thought was to a diesel pool. Yep, name associations, but I actually imagined how the cool water from the pool would turn into diesel fuel. Still have no idea why these guys came up with the diesel pool name for liquidity pool.
A better entrepreneur than I am would have thought this is a great opportunity to sell all that diesel fuel, but no, my next thought was it would catch fire from the heat. :)
I do have daydreams like this from time to time. Sometimes they are really productive as I can extract great ideas from them, other times they are just funny or strange associations that the logical part of my brain can't use much.
Do you daydream? Do you allow yourself to daydream or snap out of it when you catch yourself doing it?
