I was looking at netstat while downloading a torrent and saw some output that I do not understand:
snip
tcp 0 0 192.168.1.13:63964 192.168.1.13:51181 TIME_WAIT
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:63964 127.0.0.1:51175 TIME_WAIT
snip
192.168.1.13 is me. I may (am) just be ignorant as to how this works. But why is my machine making a connection to itself? Is that normal? I would be happy with any insight into this.

Which torrent client? Deluge? Because it looks similar to this: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Faq# … ificdaemon
AFAIK, Deluge is a GUI for the libtorrent daemon.
The default port is "58846", just like in the Web UI example. And your ports (which are also in the 49152-65535 range) I think are like that because you set them that way, either from Preferences - Daemon - Daemon port, or from Preferences - Network.
I have made a personal commitment not to reply in topics that start with a lowercase letter. Proper grammar and punctuation is a sign of respect, and if you do not show any, you will NOT receive any help (at least not from me).

Ah sorry for the vaguely low amount of information. Yes I am using deluge gtk gui and pdnsd. I do not have to start a daemon manually. So if it does start it would be due to opening deluge I guess. What I don't understand is the connections:
local ip adress --> local ip address
and
localhost --> localhost
The only thing I can think of is that it has something to do with the torrent "announce" tracker update while downloading maybe; but other than that I am lost as to why this happens.

I'm pretty sure it's to communicate with the daemon but you can ask the question on their forums or visit #deluge on irc.freenode.net.

Okay. I will post back with answer if I get one on #deluge.
