Dreamy
The surprise Shayla one day before Shayla’s birthday went off well. Although we ended up not at the house we had intended and the surprise part was rather difficult. I would say it went off with a hitch. Good lord we had a lot of fun with the balloons, though. Did you know you can play music with balloons when correctly struck? Oh, and in addition they make excellent insulators of body heat - quite remarkable if you ask me. But that was a solid party for the birthday. I hear a second surprise took place as well later this past weekend. I should clarify; surprise occurred at UWRF as well. Cake batter ice cream with graham cracker mix-in! Oh yes it’s that good.
This simply defies the laws of physics. Floating things. It appears to be real, but no strings attached levitation? Seems otherwordly.
I watched John finish the assembly of his DDR pad/velcro/hold them to the floor contraption - it went quite well I would say. The idea and the execution were, for all practical purposes, flawless. The pads are more responsive, grip the floor better, and look no different than before. What a great idea! (In case you are wondering, he used heavy-duty velcro to attach the pads to a custom-trimmed office chair mat; this supplies the grips and the hard surface.)
You know, at the birthday post surprise situation, we all got to talking about dreams. Matt has these fascinating cinematic epic dreams. The rest of us could remember some, but Matt has the coolest dreams. As for me, I am stuck with this repeating dream. It’s slightly different each time, but it’s always the same people, the same crap. I am tired of this dream. Maybe writing about it will make it go away. Here’s the deal, this dream played Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday night. It took a break on Saturday night, though. It was back Sunday night, however (actually Monday morning). Confidential to this annoying dream: get to the point or get out out of my head.
All I can say is Socrates is really a cool guy and if I need to get some ideas straight later tonight I will be posting about his philosophizing ways.
Remember, no scaring any ealier than seven o’clock sharp.
