Had a good night's sleep, full of strange
dreams about a city that I dream about on a regular basis. Not sure what it's
based on, but it seems the same every time it shows up. This time I was
able to cut through traffic and get back to DFW because I was able to
slip through spacetime. (I blame that bit on reading the tech details about
Alastair Reynolds' 'Revelation Space' novels). Woke up, and sadly the
cool dream didn't carry over. Had a major league anxiety attack. Took
my happy meds, watched a movie, and generally bumped all plans back.
By the time I was up for going to the movies, I was pretty decent.
Met up with my friends, watched the third 'The Purge' movie. Given
the foo going on lately, I had a feeling this movie wouldn't be much fun.
But it had some good bits, besides the political foo. Lots of violence,
lots of one liners from a few characters that were hysterical, and it ended
on a vague high note. If you liked the first 2, you'd probably like this
one.
Headed home, picked up packages, (Yay finally got my copy of 'Swords v
Cthulhu'). Headed back out a little later to have dinner with some
other friends, celebrating a spawning day. Went to a Greek/Mediterranean
place, very tasty. We ate foods, chitchatted, caught up. Definitely
will go back there. Took care of some other stuff, and came home. Fired
up 'Prometheus' because I needed some fluff. Scientists making horrible
decisions always makes me feel better.
So yeah, in a better place than 24 hours ago. Plan for tonight is probably
to watch movies and veg. Later I'll dig into my new, shiny book.
Tomorrow I have more errands to run, laundry to do, and will probably
just be chill. Then another week of work, with a series of things I need
to focus on. Nothing bad, just adjusting priorities. No real plans for
the week besides work. So for that, I'm going to call this a post.
