2308dreams

night before last, my dreams featured [Krabby the Coworker], who was dating a
waiter at a nice-ish restaurant. I was at the restaurant with a guy
who was being super sweet & charming. [Krabby] popped over to let us know
that she'd been helping her sweetie deliver hot plates to peoples
tables.

Something about Dirk Harris later in the night. I think we were
talking about how he liked fat girls.

I woke up thinking "But you were with MARY for ever!" and she was not
a fat girl.

last night, I dreamt about some hooligan teenage boys who had a baby
buzzard in a cake box & were going to let it die. I was getting a
ladder to go up and get the bird, who was squawking & struggling in
the box on top of a bunch of other boxes, and the boys were all "but
it's ugly!" and I said "You were ugly when you were a baby, but
somebody took care of YOU!" and then I ended up giving the bird to
Sister H & Jimmy for them to take care of.

Then I was going to be in some kind of production, where we either
had to build sets & do backstage stuff, or we had to sing on stage. I
knew I couldn't sing but for whatever reason I didn't want to do
production. So I came up with a child-character sort of like one of
Lily Tomlin's. I kind of did a little monologue about the zoo & my
favorite animal is a hippopotamous but it will eat me ifI go in the
water, and then I sang some litle stupid song. The director wsn't
buying it, so I said "no, look, I can be childlike & cute," & held up
my hair like it was in ponytails and kind of hopped around & he
laughed. Then I woke up. I have no idea if I got the part!

evile: whee! There was an announcement this a.m. that tomorrow is a
Certain person's last day here at the state!
evile: A certain nasty little member of mid-management who took it
upon herself to take me in for 'he said she said' muddy accusations
of wrongdoing each time my boss went out of town on her summer
vacation. And sh'es GONE! WHEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SkyeDS: lol - good :)
evile: *happy dance*
SkyeDS: /me is putting out an unexpected fire so responses will be
slow, please forgive
evile: no biggie, I know you're working :)
SkyeDS: this is actually a personal fire of Hugh's but yeah
evile: He's had a lot of crises lately, good of you to help him out.
SkyeDS: he has a temper like sineater's (except he's older so he does
have more self control, more practice at it)
SkyeDS: so I can't let him talk to people when he's this angry
evile: *nods*
SkyeDS: lordy lordy lordy
SkyeDS: we got a call from the sheriff yesterday because some old man
out in the gated community around Mt Bonnell didn't recognize Hugh's
daughter's car, while she was visiting her boyfriend
SkyeDS: so old man calls sheriff (as he does many many times
regularly)
SkyeDS: so we straightened everything out with the sheriff
evile: *nods* that's good.
SkyeDS: then last night after Hugh leaves, I get a call from a woman
who is behaving nuttier than Xmas fruitcake
SkyeDS: her husband thinks Courtney is stalking him, and so has hired
a Private I to protect his wife while he's out of town
evile: jeez
SkyeDS: so I tell Hugh this morning, and Hugh, and Joyce, are livid
SkyeDS: so we've been tracking these people down to tell them what's
going to happen if their hired goons start trailing Hugh's kid
evile: That is so screwed up!!
SkyeDS: all of this because Courtney and her boyfriend, who are
really good kids, went to Central Market to get stuff to cook for
Michael's little siblings dinner
evile: well, you know crazy people...they can twist any event into
something that matches their outlook on things.
SkyeDS: and come to find out this fruitcake's husband is also really
litigious so now I have to go look up all his lawsuits down to t he
courthouse
evile: ugh.
SkyeDS: I was going to do some housekeeping in the office tomorrow
but I guess not.
SkyeDS: got to go to the SOS and the courthouse too.
evile: *nods*
evile: Stephanie sent me email about the bellydance/fire show Sat.
nite. Now I have someone to go with :)
SkyeDS: :)
evile: always nicer than being by myself.
SkyeDS: very few things I like doing when I'm by myself
evile: some things I want to do bad enough, I'll do them regardless.
But generally I do prefer to have company.
evile: Or, if it's like Z Helene & co, or the B. Bards, I like the
performers enough that I want to support them, regardless. But even
then, I prefer to have someone to enjoy the show with.
SkyeDS: it's actually kind of nice to say I don't know what I'm going
to do when this weekend.
evile: yeah. You can play it by ear, do what you *feel* like doing
instead of what you feel you *have* to do.
SkyeDS: I suspect this is going to be one of those days where the
highlight of my day is the chocolate mint cookies sineater thoughtfully
packs in my lunch
evile: aww.
SkyeDS: with that person gone maybe you will get promoted
evile: not likely. all our depts budget got sucked into creating a
new position.
evile: but next time I apply for a hearing officer job, I will have a
better chance of getting it.
SkyeDS: good
evile: the economy is getting better, so all of these fledgling
attorneys who took a HO position as their first job out of law school
will be flying off.
evile: LJ is being sucky & slow today. !argh!
SkyeDS: the phone company says my phone is not a working number
SkyeDS: sigh
evile: Bizarre!!
evile: the phone company has problems with your #. I was once billed
$4 a minute for calling you.
evile: Other times, It's been about .24. And I think I've tried your
home # and had the 'not in service' message happen, too.
SkyeDS: :(
evile: It's possible that there's water in the lines or something
crazy like that, from all the rain.
SkyeDS: could be
evile: frustrating, though, whatever it is....y'all live far enough
out that phone service could mean life or death in certain
situations...
SkyeDS: wish I'd left the cell at home now
evile: oh well.
evile: you need a cell when you're making a long commute like you do,
too...
SkyeDS: at least tomorrow's friday
evile: yup!
evile: Krav Maga was good last night. I am not liking the 'knee'
moves, though. You have to grab your opponent's head and basically
shove their face into your bosom while you knee their
midsection/groin area...
evile: If that isn't a mixed message, I dont' knwo what is....:P
SkyeDS: LOL
evile: I imagine that if called upon, however, it will be my most
effective defensive move...
SkyeDS: what's even more effective is knee capping
SkyeDS: I've seen men get up after having balls kneed through roof of
mouth
SkyeDS: but not after their knee caps were busted
evile: I know a guy at Gwnn/voyages who gets off on being kicked in
the jewels. So, no, I wouldn't count on that move 100%. I would
either aim for knees or chest, depending on proximity of attacker.
Knock them down, get them out of breath, and then run like hell,
screaming.
evile: I won't be able to outrun anybody unless I incapacitate them
somehow first...so I will definitely plan on ruining 1/both legs if I
can.
evile: instructors say to deliver your hits and then get back into
fighting stance. FTS. My objective is to get away in one piece, not
to 'win' a 'fight'.
SkyeDS: nods
evile: of course, no telling what state of mind I'd be in when/if
that happens to me...so maybe I'll just beat the crap out of
someone....
evile: WEll, it's time to make my rounds. Hopefully nobody will stop
me with stupid questions today...
evile: see me leaving my cube with a pile o crap & ask me if I can
help you. No, no I can't. I'm LEAVING, dillhole.
evile: and fuck YOU for leaving your case prep for the end of the day
when you've got the hearing TOMORROW.
SkyeDS: lol wind to your wings bella, be careful it's wet
evile: yup. You, too. Take care!
