my nose is running

stretch

I went back to sleep after I turned off my alarm. Again. I had a dream that I was in a huge game of Counterstrike, but it was more like virtual reality than a computer game because all the players were in the flesh, but nobody got hurt. In the end, everyone ran out of ammo and so we started using our grenades. After we ran out of those too, my team gathered up in a side room and then someone from the other team busted in through the door and looked ready to shoot us up, but didn't because he didn't have any ammo. The judge came in and stopped the game, but couldn't call a winner for some reason.

I gotta work. I'm getting broke again.

After the dust settles, this change of scenery could end up better than I thought it would. I'm now halfway transplanted into what was previously the space no one wanted to clean. So I cleaned it up, set up shop, and now I think I can tackle the burden of unfinished business without the tsunami of clutter that overwhelms me at my desk.

Life is getting expensive. I need to start saving hard core.

Don't believe the hype.

revisited



Once in a while I forget what I had on the back burner. When I finally remember, sometimes I end up with a charred mess and I leave it be, maybe start over. Every now and then I see something nice in the pot... slow cooked and simmered down, and I can't help but think that's the way it should be.

I spent half my day in L.A., and half my day in San Diego. And another half in my car, draining my gas tank and fighting traffic. It was all worth it though. I have work in 3 1/2 hours. Yesssss.
