Jason,

 

Yes, i’d agree that in Peircean terms, the conscious experience of the 
immediate present is always at least a Second – i would say primarily a Second. 
The key word being experience, which for Peirce is virtually always associated 
with Secondness. (The Greek root (peirao) signifies trying, implying some kind 
of effort, which cannot occur without resistance.)

Would it not be fair to say that the conscious experience of the immediate 
present must always be at least a second?  That is the view I hold.
