57 degrees this morning, walk 38:49 minutes
Actually seemed “warm” this morning, although the wind was up.
Still wondering about my dream I noted yesterday. That was a strange dream, perhaps resulting from something I read or saw. Or it may just be my mind was on a creative binge!
I have another dream yesterday morning I will note later. It is a lot different!
I seem to go on periods when I dream dreams I remember and other periods of dreams that I don’t remember. I think writing them down helps me remember them, although right now most of the dreams I remember come after my “post walk” nap.
Thinking of “Jack Reacher” this morning (the Lee Childs character who doesn’t have a home and carries no bags and simply buys new clothes and throws away the old ones.
I think one reason the character is so interesting is that he doesn’t carry a cell phone (other than the “throwaway” kind), has no credit cards that his purchases and travels can be tracked, has ultimate freedom (and in a perverse sense, he is a victim of his own freedom). He is the person people identify with but no one would really want to be.
On the positive side, he gets no “targeted” ads from Facebook or the weird e-mails that think they know what you want to buy etc., doesn’t have to commute or even worry about a car etc. (He actually doesn’t even have a drivers license.)
On the other hand, realistically, he needs to have some type of id to fly etc.
Getting a new work computer today, the “next generation of tablet”. Of course it is a PC based (probably a Dell or HP), but will be a lot lighter than the one I have. The one I have pooped out, when the touchpad and the pointer quit working and they decided to replace it (they are replacing all of the current generation).
Like changing phones or computers, there is a lot of hassle reconnecting everything, trying to remember your passwords for web sites that the computer has long remembered for you etc.
Of course, connectivity will continue to be a problem. For some reason, they keep on 3G instead of going to 4G. Believe me,l there is a major difference, especially when I am used to 4G on all of my devices.
I should have all of my new accounts this morning, so I will have a good time preparing a strategy for resolving any problems or opportunities.
Listening to another version of the many versions of “Orange Blossom Special” I have. This is actually tune 704 of 6,544 and is Johnny Cash singing and perform a version of Orange Blossom Special. At one time, I had an an entire cassette tape of different versions of it and also one of “Amazing Grace”. Now consigned to the place that cassette tapes end up.
Dream from Monday morning during my post-exercise nap:
11-2-15 Dream Strong dream we were visited on a surprise visit by two friends from Lakeland.
I heard Aliene talking while I was working in my office. I keep working, glad we hadn’t scheduled anything for after that evening.
I looked out and the one I could see (I never saw the others, just heard them) was wearing a green dress and Aliene was also.
We seemed to morph to being in some kind of hotel.
I was sitting in the lobby with my work, working. I was wearing dress shoes with no socks and I kept thinking I had to put on my socks before I went in to see our friends.
A man sent beside me watching me, just kind of to the side, like you sit in a lobby, except I had all of my work with me.
I was waiting for me to finish my work day so I could walk int to visit them when I woke up.
I was putting my socks on so I could wear socks with my dress shoes.
Not sure of the reason for this dream, could just be recounting memories from the past. We do miss our friends from Lakeland. Even though we don’t visit often, when we do visit it is just like family members.
That’s it for now, Tuesday, November 3, 2015
