Hey couch! I haven't been around too much lately due to overtime at work and studying... didn't have OT today, so I just finished the first section of chapter 6. It is a LONG chapter - it has 3 sections in it, and I just looked at section 2 and it has 8 sub-sections! What have I gotten myself into?! This chapter is about Sensation and Perception.

And I learned something interesting, that's actually a THING. It's called "perceptual set" and is a mental predisposition to perceive one thing and not another. As in "believing is seeing" instead of the other way around. Like, when we expect to hear one thing, even if what is said is something else, we'll "hear" what we expect. That really helps explain why we sometimes experience our t's as 'saying' one thing (what our childhoods conditioned us to expect) when they really said something else.

I think maybe?

Or I could just be tired. I'm putting up the books for now and going to watch tv for a bit with h before bed.
