So my mind is running. I'm just thinking about nothing, really. I was thinking about time. A measure of age. What makes us age? Why do we grow? Why do we age? Can we stop it? Can we stop time? I'm not talking about time travel. I don't mean time as in a path, or some kind of bendable force. Just a measurement of time. Just as a ruler is a tool for measuring length. So by stopping aging, we'd stop time, at least for humans.

Growth is bizarre too. Where does your flesh, bones, brain come from? I recon it's what we eat. Watching my snakes eat, the more rats I feed at a time, and the higher the rate, to some point, it'll grow faster and bigger. So those rats become snake. Seeds, veggies, and what not became rats. We grow carrots in dirt, where it gets it's nutrients, so carrots are made out of dirt. But ultimately everything is the same. Just atoms. Neurons. Whatnots.... Does it ever weird you out thinking that your hands are just spinning atoms. Since everything is just spinning atoms, does anything really excist? How can spinning atoms be me? How can an uncountable amount of spinning atoms be my thoughts and feelings? What makes it all stick together? Imagine if all my atoms decided to be disobedient and not stick together as me anymore and start mingling with other atoms around "me". Starting to sink through the chair, meld with the chair, the carpet, the air, dissolve. What is in a vacuum? Absolutely nothing? Is our idea of physics based on the earths impact on objects? A ball obviously behaves differently on the moon. Could there be a world somewhere else in space where our idea and rules of physics didn't exist? Where solids, liquids, and gasses don't exist, and ultimately time?

Am I really here?

Oh! The Brak show is back on sunday nights!!! 12:45!!! How I love that sweet space cat...
