Insomniac Almanac

Just worked forty minutes on this entry and then got booted. Spoiled my sense of well being.

  Went to bed early, ten p.m., feeling punk.  Woke at one a.m. feeling good.  Usually don't dream so early in the night, but had a remarkable dream that left me with a sense of well-being.

   A group of men and I, seemed to be in eighteenth century England, and were working on getting the exact flavor of vinegar to add to a large pot of soup.  Remarkable in the dream was the fact that I could taste the flavors of vinegar.

   Children were playing outside, not sitting around watching television. 

   Now what am I going to do with the rest of this long night.  Sometimes when I have interrupted a dream, I have been able to go back to sleep and continue the dream... but in this case, I don't care what flavor that soup eventually takes. 

   Maybe I'll go outside and play with the children.

Go back to bed!  Maybe you'll invent hot and sour soup, and feed the children with it. - K.

I hope you are able to catch up on your sleep.    If I do not get more than 4 hours at night I end up falling asleep for several hours in the afternoon.     I did not want to get up this morning but managed to by 9:30.     My ear is draining and my back is in pain until the medication I take starts to work.    Another 60F day here with some wind so I won't be doing any outdoor activity for too long.    I did run the string trimmer for a while just wanting to make sure the gas in it did not stay in the carburetor too long.    My riding lawnmower will have to be taken apart because the steering gear is worn away.    I don't think I'll have a riding mower for some time as I am going to try to take it apart myself.    I got a good Bolens mower for free and had a new engine put in it several years ago.     I have a push mower that will have to do.    My 83 year old  next door neighbor will miss my riding mower as I cut his lawn for him.      mark

I had a dream that I was eating a huge marshmallow. When I woke up, my pillow was gone.
