The huge storms have not materalized - at least not here down in the valley. Just enough slush to make things slippery

At dinner tonight we met a number of new people to the club (Reno Ski and Recreation Club). A couple were talking about Burning Man. I found out in the conversation that this would be their first year. You should have seen the look on one of the ladies face when I said "Oh, you're a virgin!" They hadn't heard the term. It was funny.

Yawn... skritch skritch... rub rub rub... strettttttch.. yawwwwnnn... G' Morning!!

What a strange set of dreams. Met this cat named John, turned out to be the baptist John, yeah, that one, (and no, he didn't look like some 15th century painting of what they imagined people looked like 15 centuries before - looked kinda like... hell, looked like a 20 year old college kid in a blue buttondown shirt and black pants)... anyway, we had this bizarre demoney fuzzy handed white and red snake thing, kept showing up, stretching across the room trying to eat the birds. Anyway, he showed up, we talked about doing religious rites and shit (which is how I found our who he was), said he was tired of doing the water gig but that was what he was there for... poured some water on the snakey thing, it shrunk back down & went away...

Guess I shouldn't have been dozing off while Beowulf was on the tube, eh? Or mixed Train Wine, Sierra Nevada, Tequila and Makers beforehand.

Think I'll pull a quick cafe coretto and head out - starting early as too much catchup to do from the mess last night.

I just submited something and it vanished - weird!

Seperators? Kewl! I'll have a couple.

The dream was bizarre - I thought the guy at first was a younger Sput. (don't tell him!) Kinda serious, kinda burned out, but still in his game. Not some hokey fairy take thing - it was all present, superreal if a little surreal.

Anyway, gotta check my roads... have a gr8 day!

Thought to self:
Hmmm, could do same thing in living room...then E GADS!!! that would be a 3 days mess to fall over in the middle of the night!!!%%^%#$#@@^


Yup, I think Im going to do just that this weekend! Cause i cant get shit done in that messy ass workshop!


Road construction head speed ahead!

thanks PM.........yum..........

BBS:
without getting to "airy/fairy", those can be quite powerful dreams, in that, if it was an entity, (not necessarily what you recognize), to me, it's a good thing, good sign, etc.
The attempt to contact you, means, you may be open to contact......

*ok, stopping self now........gotta control the Nordic Pagan/Magic stuff, and, tendency to speak of same*

don't forget, that, symbolism and your brain can make a picture that is only a message, not necessarily as seen.......

I dunno if you ever meditate, but, if you were to, and, think on the dream, there may be a message there.......

that'd seem something, well worth developing........

sometimes, the mind can't/won't deal with a gift like that, so, keeps you thinking fast and scattered, trying to bury the reality.......especially if your upbringing, and even life now, tends to reject or minimize said gifts.

just thought.

That stew looks great, Ellorum. I'll be right over for a breakfast bowl. Meanwhile, the bacon on the maple donuts will go well with the coffee. Shuffles over to the bench for a sit down with WB, LF and Yggy. Chug-a- lug.

Mornin E'dude!!!!

Howdy M'Marty!!!
(sorry didnt do the whole coffee thing this am)


Nah, I just have what the 21'st century likes to call ADD, I prefer the term hyper brained.
Luckily I missed that whole Apokiliptic type labeling, or they would have stuck me too on all those mind closing drugs!
Kinda like I missed the windows of opportunity on ....Tonsil removal, ear tubes and the like.
But my oldest daughter...they caught...had her on 12 pills a day.
Me stopped that Bullshit after about 3 months of watching a living zombie moping around the house. i think at one point she had forgotten how to tie her shoes she was so pharmaceutical'ly stoned.


I use more then what I should, at any given time.

yeah, I nap...to shut it down!

Its exhausting to think that much!

What's with all the weird dreams? I had an actual nightmare last night. First one I've had in probably forty years or more. My wife had to shake me out of it. In the dream I was doing the before bed house check like I do every night. When I got to the guest room the window was open and the screen was off. No wind but it was freezing at the door way. I knew, just knew there was something in the room. I tried calling for my wife yet I was trying to call out my sister's name. I was frozen with fear trying to call out a name. That's when my wife woke me up.

Mona has stopped moaning so the coffee must be ready. Back to reality. Morning paper and coffee. Later.

good morning! thanks for the separators, pinemom! mmmmm

if i pondered too much on my dreams i think i'd end up shooting meself! crazy damned things. i used to keep a journal, but it got too scary. they've mellowed as i got older, fortunately.

i love my dentist, gorgeous young german man who really knows his stuff... ! i even enjoyed having him pull my wisdom teeth a few years back! :shock:

Last night I had crab cake, house salad, NY steak w/ peppercorn demiglaze and shoestring fries and for desert chocolate decadence. The two beers with dinner and the glass of wine I had when we got home probably didn't help the situation. But I don't want another dream like that. Even though the room was cold in the dream, when my wife woke me I was in a full body sweat.

I normally remember my dreams and can usually figure out what triggers them but not this one. It was the raw fear of not being able to move or call out that got me. I've had that happen in real life once in the past but I knew what the “thingâ€

Dreams come with rainy weather. There's a definite scientific connection there. ;)

Maybe lightning storms short circuit brain chemistry.

I have weird dreams no matter what.
