hmm, more dreams about my old next door neighbors. i had this one about 3 or 4 sleep filled hours ago, so details are fuzzy. i had something in my hand, kind of like the metal end of a light bulb. i could shoot some sort of laser or something with it. i could turn it, to control the "focus" of it. anyway i was shooting these big things with it that were coming after me. i don't know what they were. but i kept turning it up, so that the laser was more powerul. i turned it all the way up and i guess started shooting it toward the center of the earth, and i started spinning faster and faster.

as if i were in GTA, i could choose whether i wanted to revert to a "saved" life before the laser incident, or continue with the possibly-damaged-space-time life with the post-laser scenario. i chose the latter. i think the next thing i remember was being in france 9 years later. i can't really explain that one.

other dreams included running away from some montsters from LotR or something.

i got woken up at some point by the super yelling to find if anyone was home (i had called yesterday cause the ceiling was leaking again). long ago i learned that if i want to be asleep, and someone's looking for me or something, if i just continue to act as though i'm sleeping (which is pretty easy), usually the problem sorts itself out.

also at some point in my dreams phil was trying to get tickets to somewhere in canadia and had access to the airlines' flight query database thingie where he could type in these weird queries and it would show him the remaining flights.

hahaha ok another dream i just remembered (i always have a hard time typing that word) was i was at some school and it was like lunchtime and there was a tv on and it was showing the tv version of mscl (as if mscl was like buffy - first movie then tv show) and it was pretty bad - it had been on for a while and was due for a cancelling. i mean, jordan catalano was going bald. i couldn't really handle watching it.

so we went to the game and the bruins didn't play very well but it was fun, despite the artic blast being pumped out of the vent near us. it really completed the everest effect we had with sitting so high up.

it's nice to now be able to do stuff i didn't used to have time for. like sorting my pile of coins that i've collected in the past 3 years. i had some interesting thoughts while doing this.

the first was, that it's pretty easy for people to sort coins. and it's probably tricky for robots to do it; both with coin recognition and manipulation. however, it's really easy for people to make machines to sort - just use different sized holes etc. however, is it hard for robots to design coin sorting machines?

the second is more interesting. so, say i checked the dates for all the coins i have, and i find some coins dated from the future. i can be reasonably certain that we figure out time travel, and that people accidentally brought back some future coins.

however, the moment i mention it here then i lose all assurance that time travel is possible and probably the coin would disappear or whatever happens when the future changes.

the moral of this story is, if you ever find a robot from the future that designs coin sorting machines, DON'T TELL ANYONE!

every once in a while i consider going back to school. just the thought of having to use capital letters keeps me from thinking about it further. the only classes i'd be left with would be poetry classes and i really don't think i'd be able to handle it.

i haven't used my icq account in a good couple of years, but i still remember my icq number. i'm not quite sure what to make of that.
