I've been incredibly sleepy for the past few days. I'm not sure why. Could be quarantine, could be having to wear the heart monitor, could just be me being irritable. Dunno. On a side note, I once had a mental health counselor tell me that if I got irritable that meant I was bipolar. Biggest bunch of bullshit ever. Everyone gets irritable sometimes.

Death
Eddie Van Halen passed away. Cancer. He was only 65. I saw Van Halen at SIU Carbondale on their 1984 tour. Such a loss to the world. If you haven't listened to Eruption and marveled at the sound of Eddie making love to that guitar then you should leave this blog and head for youtube to experience it. With each great musician who passed it feels like the world gets a little colder. :(

Free will
Free will is an interesting concept. We are actually subtly brainwashed every day by different types of media. I don't think we actually have free will at this point. I don't think soldiers fight for freedom. We are all just told that repeatedly. They fight because the people in charge order them to. We buy floral patterned shirts when the media and stores show us nothing else. We are currently being coerced into thinking that animal products aren't "clean" edibles. The terminology and images used aren't always blatant but they do the job. The United States is the greatest nation on Earth! No. Why do people insist on that? It's not true. We are fed deliberate falsehoods over and over until we unthinkingly repeat them and maybe even believe them. No, you don't have free will. Likely you never will. Unfortunately you probably won't ever even see it.
Monitor
I will be receiving my heart monitor tomorrow. I'm a little nervous about it. It looks like it sticks directly on the skin. I've had issues with allergic reactions to adhesives on surgical tape and certain types of bandages. The last thing I want is a rash on my chest. I'll have to wear the thing for two weeks and then I send it back. They say it takes a week or so to get results. We will see.
