Bacon:
"The assertion that the human senses are the measure of things is false; to the contrary, all perceptions, both of sense and mind, are relative to man, not to the universe. The human understanding is like an uneven mirror receiving rays from things and merging its own nature with the nature of things, which thus distorts and corrupts it."

Free time is just better.

I was supposed to write a five page paper on the complementary points between Platonic and Aristotelian approaches to "Heraclitean Flux" in consideration of the question 'can we know anything about what there is', read 150 pages from Bacon's The New Organon and finish 3 chapters of math.
Did I do any of this?
No, Of course not. It was Halloween weekend...
