A few months back I was sleeping with a stomach ache. I remember that I was attempting to remove any references to my pain so it would be garbage collected. It made a lot of sense at the time, and it actually worked!

I think there is a zen lesson in here somewhere about attachment...



OMG, something similar to this has happened to me twice over the last few years! I came down with a real bad case of, I don't know, something; but I had a bad fever and was just in a dazed state of half-sleep. The last time I just remember that "I" kept trying to parse some XML and was getting some parsing exceptions. It was so weird the next day remembering back, it was literally like I was in a different state, not really myself. very strange.


This has absolutely happened to me too.
