Day 26
Something is going on in my brain that's consuming a lot of energy. When I don't have to wake early for work, I'm sleeping extremely late. On my days off, it's not uncommon to sleep for 12-14 hours. In my half awake state, I often perceive flashes of various images in rapid succession. It's so fast that I usually can't tell what the images are, but they're definitely images. That makes total sense considering I'm a visual learner and presenter. I think in mental images. It's why I sometimes describe imagery in my posts. I tend to perceive and communicate through analogy, simile, metaphor, etc.
Anyway, this is something I've noticed lately...extreme mental imagery in my half awake state and extreme energy consumption. My working theory is that I'm reframing and/or reinforcing my perception of the day's events. I say that because I get an occasional glimpse of something that happened during the day.
