Dream ghost girlfriend

9:20am JST Thursday 15 June 2006

I brought home a ghost woman named Amee. We came up the spiral staircase to the shared apartment, in which several guys lived, all of whom were working on various projects, from programming to music to cooking, etc.

Amee scared me at one point as we were outside the door. I locked the door so she could not get in; being a ghost, she was not solid and couldn't unlock it (nevermind that she could go right through the wall...), and she couldn't at first, but then she could become solid enough to unlock it, and I got scared and shouted inside, "Call Security!!!!" and then Amee said she just wanted to listen to the music and chill out, so we went in together and I was like, "ah, cancel that security call," but it was too late.

When we went inside, though, she started messing with one of the computers that one of my roommates was using, but it turns out she was using vast knowledge, and super quickly fixed an issue he was having, trying to get some graphics thing working. He was really happy with the fix, and then we went into the scene on the computer where there were old cars and people walking along a riverside.

Security came to the building through that riverside, so before they even got upstairs, I flagged them down, "I was the one who called you guys; I have this ghost, see," and waved my arms through her, "and at first there was a problem, but now she just has a question,"

And the cops listened to Amee talk for about an hour about the nature of man and religion and all this philosophical jabber that the cops understood, but I did not.

Glass shard

I didn't get a photo (thank goodness?) until the glass was discarded, but this morning I had a suprising stabbing feeling in my toe when I shifted my feet under Jesse's desk. It took a moment to recognize that it really hurt way more than anything should have under those circumstances. I looked down to find a shiny blood dome preparing to drip from the nail edge, held by cohesion.

Jesse said the likely culprit was from a break in the kitchen about a month ago.

Nice. I successfully combined the tabifier and boxover tooltip thing to create tabs with optional tooltips in my images program. I'm glad I was able to do that, and give the technique back to the community.
