Interesting. In my experience, I end up cleaning my house the next day, because I noticed that the light switch in my room isn't just a light switch, it's a dirty light switch. I'll see stains or smudges that I never noticed. Suddenly there are tons of details that I can see that just got smeared in "normal" waking life.

Well, I noticed a bunch of things during and after tripping, and some of it was even true, but I didn't ever notice that seeing and being aware of seeing were two separate and separable processes, and I didnt ever notice that I could be awake and asleep at the same time, not until the events I recounted here, both of which occurred years after I had, as they say, gotten the psychedelic message and then hung up the phone.
