MeCha coding dream In RL I did a lot of reading other people's code yesterday. Last night I dreamed I was working on this piece of code and in the comments, one of the people who had edited it, back in 2001, was Specklet. Then I saw her on IRC and said "hey, I found some of your old code!" It was kind of cool.
I had a dream about people living in Antarctica last night. Did you know there is a state called New Jersey in Antarctica? I remember thinking that it was confusing, because there was a New Jersey in the U.S. as well, were they both named after the original Jersey, or what?

Then I also noticed that there was an Antarctic state called "Pennsylvania". The state names were not that big of a deal, it was just one thing I noticed during a part of the dream where some of the characters were flying around Antarctica in a plane. They flew so high that you could see the whole continent (they must have been hundreds of miles up some how), and for some reason I could see the state borders, and labels, like on a map. Then later they were flying around in the dark and they couldn’t tell the snow-covered mountains from the sky. I think they flew into some snow.

The strange thing is the exact same thing happened later to some religious fanatics trying to 're-fly the course of Jesus' as he was redirected or something. Don't know why they were doing this in Antarctica, but they had this strange white plane, the fuselage of which looked sort of like a carved bone. It had long, thin wings and sort looked like a cross.

Anyway, they ended up getting lost and flying into some snow as well. They got rescued by a bunch of people digging into the snow. Oddly these people were all wearing sweaters and stuff, not the kind of attire you'd expect in the middle of Antarctica.

I dreamt that Bette Midler was my mom and she was having me do photocopies for her. You definitely had the better dream.

Well, Bette was unhappy with my photocopies.
I have Freud and Jung finger puppets at home. They go great with the accent. Freud is always kicking Jung to the curb, and then Jung strikes back. But enough about me....hey, matildaben!!!

Tsk, tsk. Dreaming about work. This is bad.

Dreaming about specklet. This is good.

Matildaben: I'm in Seattle tomorrow on a lightning run to pick up bowling balls, extruded acrylic tube and raid Boeing Surplus. After my last meetup (standup) experience, I'll let somebody else decide if this is appropriate on a short notice thingy. Will probably stay over Sat nite to avoid driving back late.
