My AIM client is apparently not recieving all the messages that are being sent to it. I really only noticed this when my mom and I were having a conversation, and both of us thought that the other wasn't making much sense. It might've been happening before too, without me noticing it. This is extremely irritating -- I wonder if it's the fault of gaim, aim on her system, or perhaps a sign that the underlying transport is unreliable.

It reminds me of an old paranoid fear I used to have (not sure if I still do) -- that I'm 'not all there', and might be shrieking or babbling all the time, but somehow I'm incapable of realizing when this happens, and people don't tell me because I'll either forget it or get hysterical and then forget it. Inaccurate memory is a philosophical nightmare. The sad thing is, we all have that to an extent.

Have been listening to some more music, and singing along when nobody's near enough to hear. Fun.
