Well, my day (morning) off started with two distinct and connected dreams. The first one is less remembered, but it had to do with the end of the world approaching. The second was about it being a lot closer. There was going to be a supernova and I was at college (not my real one […]

So what has gone wrong tonight so far? Well, not a whole lot, but the three things impacting me right now, as I sit and eat a late dinner are: Leaving the toaster on “Bagel Mode”. Until today I didn’t know what bagel mode was, but I thought it was pretty cool that I had

I dreamt I went back to LA last night. I couldn’t find where I was going on a map, but I knew in my mind exactly what my destination was. I boarded the greyhound and they asked me where I was headed too and I couldn’t remember the name of the area, nor find it
