i hope you don't think i'm crazy

I'm slowly rediscovering things that were obvious to me in childhood.
So far:

1) The hot/cold sides of the bed dynamic. If you stay too long at one side of the bed, you get too hot. If you shift too often, the bed doesn't get warm until well after you've woken up. Solution? Moderate shifting throughout the night, timed so that you're at a perfect temperature always.

2) Shapes. The AC/Heat unit in the room was very loud last night and as I was trying to go to sleep caused shifting images behind my eyes. I remember being fascinated with these when I was around 5 or 6, at some point I just started to ignore it--I'm not exactly sure why. They appear different depending on what's going on, and are more intense with my eyes closed or lack of visual input (i.e. dark room). I can focus on them / see them best at night, when I'm trying to shut down, but even now they're sort of present. It appears to be a constantly shifting separated tessellation. Each piece is what I want to call fractal-y. I wish there was some way of taking a picture of this for better understanding. I'm not quite sure if they have color. They do, but it is more like the rainbow in a spot of oil on a sunny day type of color than a very solid visual.

3) Girls all hate each other.

4) The richer and heavier the better. Lately I've taken to ordering Breves instead of Lattes when I want a milk-espresso fix. Steamed half-and-half with espresso, yes.
