It is Saturday.
I am drinking lots of tea and reading Harry Potter. I just had some toast with loads of butter. My name is Dan. Let’s be Tumblr friends.

Falling off a chair and adventures in time dilation, the theory of relativity and accelerated skull fragmentation.
While standing on a chair a couple of weeks ago, I slipped and fell backwards onto a tiled floor. I was in the garage at the office and I had to stand on the chair to reach a door bolt. It’s hard to gauge the distance I fell, but I’d guess my head travelled at least ten feet before introducing itself to the floor at high velocity.
But the thing I can’t forget is that I experienced an amazing time dilation. As I was falling, this is exactly what I thought: ”…Shit there’s nothing I can grab on to to stop this…. I’m just going to have to fall…. Hmm… This is taking ages… So this is what it’s like to experience time slowing down… … … This is incredible…. I think I’m going to hit the floor soon… OK I need to try to relax….”
BANG.
Luckily when I landed on the tiles my tail-bone, hip, and skull took most of the hit. Wait did I say luckily? I meant painfully.
Still, an amazing experience.
where were the photos from sunday taken, looks familiar
St. Annes park, Clontarf and the tea room is in Howth. Oh and the delicious sausage bagel was eaten in my sitting room, Clontarf too :)
Imagine how terrifying death would be if we didn’t have sleep. Every night it shows us that it’s not so bad to not exist. Sleep is there to comfort us. Sleep is the little death.

Sunday was a good day.
