Dreams

(dream)

In a something above the ground like 40 feet up and one of my youth jumped out and his parachute didn't open so he kinda bonked on the ground, but he was okay. He pulled his parachute out like gosh darn stupid parachute! and then he tossedthe top part of a rop up to me and it took a few tries but I caught it and then pulled him up to our level again. Since the parachute was already open, I dropped him down and it worked nicely. He floated down to the ground very slowly.

Near my dad's house, I was dropped off by the elementary school and Colleen Crotty (Saube) was there and she was trying to get home, but it started to rain a bit - a cold rain so she started jogging and I jogged along with her to make sure she got home safely. We got up to my dad's street and Fred was there chillin' in a van with a bunch of stuff on the hood and I was all, "let me borrow it" and he started throwing the stuff (skates, blankets, etc) into the van. Colleen got in and I was driving and Fred stood on the sideboard as I drove slowly to Colleen's house (not too far away).

Some cattle were standing in the road, and one particularly bullheaded (or just dumb) cow was standing there and we actually pushed him out of the way with the van. Then we had to get through the gate that led into her neighborhood and it seemed really narrow but I used some sort of extension on the van to push part of the gate open on both sides; it was like a piece of sheetmetal hanging on some rebar pegs extending horizontally from the vertical wooden posts on either side of the gate.

Another dream was something about work, but I don't remember.

something about my ex-work.

Insanity

2:29pm CDT Saturday 7 September 2002

Is this a bit insane? Maybe. I came to Kinko's to work on Kim Sawyer's website and got a message from Janette that I can make $100 working for her today, so I'm going to zip over there and put Kim's project on hold and make $100, but the crazy thing is that I haven't 100% confirmed that the $100 job is still available. I'm just hoping.

3:32pm

Made it to Dallas and found no Janette at her house, but Jack via telephone helped me find their address book and I called Janette's work. I'll see her there soon.

6:02pm

We're back at Bibby's for a break. Her break more than mine of course; I've only worked almost 2 hours. This fabric that we're working with is WAY lighter and smaller than that hugemongous fucking curtain that we did last time. That was ridiculous. This fabric is a lightweight simple weave polyester, only 20 feet long at a time instead of 40, and we don't have to sew them all together into a monstrosity 110 feet wide and 40 feet tall.

Just a simple hem along all the edges. I pin them up and she sews. Easy.

But we're still takin' a break.

6:59pm

Ate crackers and peanut butter and I finished the bag of Chips Ahoy that was brought there some weeks ago by Sean's friends who brought two other snacks, like trail mix and cheese nips, both were hot flavor, which was quite distressing to Sean. The Chips Ahoy were mostly untouched for those weeks except by me, who may have eaten all of them.

I don't have my wallet. Hmm. I'll drive extra carefully on the way back.

12:17am

Finished. Going to Bibby's now.

1:45am

Now I'm back in Denton at Marta's, and feel a bit guilty since the apartment has been cleaned up of all my crap that was all over the living room. Okay, it wasn't all over, but more like in a pile in the center.

It got all cleaned up by Marta because Cherub and Dale are coming over tomorrow morning.

On the way home from Dallas, I called Becky (my dad's sister) in Florida where she is staying with their mom, but will be going back to West Virginia in about a week. Great to talk to her about how all the family is doing.
