So, last night I had severe moving anxiety dreams--finding a new place, packing, moving day, then realizing on moving day that I didn't actually have anywhere to move to.
What's that all about?
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

You accidentally got my dreams? I know I had some, but I don't remember what they were...

Ok. Well, I'll forgive you for sharing in this way, but just this once.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Gah. Heavy gronk. Just woke up from unsatisfying sleep dep snooze of around 10 hours.
Andi and I have today off, and we have to find a car.
Andi is back to sleeping after being rightly praised for her wiseness by y'all.
We shall catch up with nappage and find a car, yes we will.
Now? Meds. Pills and needles to feed my diabetes demon. blecch. Stoopid demon.

Hrm. I don't know how early is too early to start calling people about apartments. Like, if it looks like a "call the managers" and is an office number, I figure 9AM is OK (and if they dont' answer maybe there's a machine). But if it looks like some guy's number? Or if it says "We'll be showing the place on Saturday, just come by and buzz #204"?? How early is too early? I figure I'll go get some coffee and walk over to the "just buzz" one.

They might even have a note on the door, meara.
ION: I paid $2.52/gallon for gas last night. That's more than a 50 cent price drop from a month ago when we were inexplicably higher than most of the country. Wacky.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
On the subject of dreams, here's a tattered fragment of dialogue that I snatched from last night's dream as I was surfacing into wakefulness:
"Naked pingpong! The sport of kings!"
...
...
....nope, I got nothin'. My subconscious, she is a strange beast.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Ow. Laughing that much hurts.
Which should I read today, The Big Sleep or the new Daniel Silva book? I've been getting more and more irritated with Daniel Silva's books lately, but I want to know what happens next. I started The Big Sleep, and I like it so far, but I think it might require more concentration than I have today.

Good luck car hunting, DCJ and WS!
Almost all of my jobs have had something I loved about them and something I hated about them. I loved being a reporter for a daily newspaper. It's an oddly low-stress job, because one the paper comes out, it's all over and you start anew on the next story. On the other hand, the guy at the next desk spouted nearly constant verbal sexual harrassment, and we knew the women reporters were paid less than the men. I loved being a student publications advisor. I might have been happy doing that forever, but the money was terrible and the professional respect nil. Working with the students was great though. A number of them are still friends of mine, all these years later.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Daniel is degronkifying by taking a nap on the sofa. With Harvey. Who is lying on Daniel's side, one paw stretched out down Daniel's chest. Too, too cute. Don't know where camera is. OMG, there's a sunbeam on Harvey's head now. If you don't hear from me again, you will know I am ded of teh cute, and have a rousing happy wake for me.
