Solid sleep, but I woke up once in the middle of the night – maybe that’s why I can recall my dream so readily today. Dreamt that I was living in a haunted house – hanged bodies in varying states of decay kept appearing on the porch. Some of the skulls were certainly not human… more bovine or ursine, depending. I would throw them away, or burn them out in the yard, but the following day, more would be there.
I kept the noose rope, spooling it into a large ball in the back yard, hoping to make the place a roadside attraction. I don’t know why reappearing bodies wouldn’t be enough. For whatever dream-reason, I spun the rope to the tune of Stick Shifts & Safety Belts (Which is still lodged in my head… 16 hours or more later.)
Rather than come for the huge ball of twine, visitors did start to come, due to the delicious smell of charred carcasses. I don’t know why feeding the bodies to visiting people felt OK, but it was guilt-free… my attitude was “hey, they were just hanging there… like selling fruit from my apple tree.”
Top 20 Logical Fallacies – When in a debate, I’m often guilty of abusing reductio ad absurdum (#14).
This morning on the way to work – still a few autumn colors out there.
I hear through the grapevine that one of my old places of business is in a pretty big tangle. Eight people have turned over in a year’s time there. When one considers that they only have 14 positions, five of them part-time and not all 14 existed for that full year, that’s a sure sign of a problem.
Speaking of Grapes… DIET GRAPE AT GIANT HAS RETURNED!!
The only grape soda that I actively enjoy, flavor-wise. Plus, the foam is a soft powder blue, not purple. BHK has been questing for it since mid-june.
Nice.. finally a word of the day I’d not heard before!
