I have realised that in just about every dream I had last night someone died. Most of them were me in a TV show, so it was sad, and I was kind of distanced. But one was "real life" and a Buffista died. And in all of them I was the one that discovered the death and had to notify people. And the dreams kept restarting, and each time they restarted I knew ahead of time who would die, but I couldn't say anything before the death was discovered again.

Needless to say, not relaxing.

Oh, I totally want to live in one of these... or should I wait until I have enough money for a hotel?

In Monopoly, I always bought all the utilities and went bankrupt, which is already eerily similar to my real life.

My library has: Christmas Spirit, Pictures of Us, Hot Date, I Love You to Death, and Murder in the Hamptons.

Mine has Christmas Spirit, Hot Date, Room Service, I Love You to Death, Murder in the Hamptons, and Bad Boys of Summer.

Wow. The Brooklyn library has Flirter avec l'amour : roman / Amy _______ ; traduit de l'américain par Agathe Nabet.

We may be even more alone in the universe than we thought

Two scientists propose that the jump from bacteria to complex life might be much riskier than previously imagined. Even on planets with earthlike conditions, plant and animal life would therefore be incredibly rare.

Yeah, I've always wondered about that. Life originated on Earth very quickly (in evolutionary terms)(maybe a few million years?) once the Earth was ready for life, but it took billions of years of more evolution before we got complex, multi-cellular life. So the jump to multi-cellular life may be a much more rare event in the universe when compared to the formation of single-celled life.

After three nights of not sleeping well, I decided to take two ativan last night, so I slept like the dead from a little after 10:00 to a little after 5:00, and then off and on until 6:45. It was AWESOME.

Also, it's Friday!

What are people doing this weekend?

My alarm clock was broken this morning. By which I mean for some reason kripkat did not jump on my chest and meow in my face at 7 in the morning. We are still trying to figure out this mystery!

What are people doing this weekend?

Tonight hanging out with the mister and making a fave fall/winter dish--roasted chicken thighs w/ yukon gold potatoes and carrots. Except w/ sweet taters instead of carrots possibly. And working out some wedding business.

Saturday, Bob flies to Chicago for his bach party evening (and then work through next week) and I go for a walk w/ a friend and yardsale shop for glassware for centerpieces. Sat. eve spraypaint glassware and have dinner with friends who are helping me.

Going to see Gary Numan tonight (the Pleasure Principle tour!), with Rasputina opening.

Chilling the rest in anticipation of my trip next weekend. Maybe see The Social Network and/or The Town.

Weekend- hm, I don't know. Definitely need to do some cleaning and bug spraying the front door.

Other that that, chilling out, cooking, doing fun stuff.
