Hah thanks for the welcome.
I've started trying to do those 'reality checks', such as checking my watch time and checking if it works right (by pressing the light button), also checking my hands and reading texts etc... Just wondering how often i'm supposed to do these, is it the more the better? And which of these checks are the most effective.

PS: nice pic in your sig Howie, we got shown that in our Psychology class for perception.
