There are certain soundbites that come up in my head for no real reason.
The one that came up this morning was from Rocky and Bullwinkle:
Namely, the line, "Is Stonewall Boris! Hi you all!"
The other one that has been in heavy rotation as late is this:
Lord and Lady DOUCHEBAG.
It's weird what the brain will spit out at random - to that point:
The other night, I had a dream that I was driving and the steering wheel came off in my hands. I may not be dealing well with my anxiety.
Last night I had a dream that I was at my sorority house planning for our 300 new members (!!!!!) to come spend the night.
I also had a musical number where I was singing about an old classmate of mine. I have musical numbers in my dreams pretty often. It's a shame I can't write music in my sleep - I'm reasonably talented.
Allegedly, Charlie Chaplin was working on a film (I think City Lights) and woke in the middle of the night with an idea for a song - jotted it down and upon waking up, realized it was a song that already existed. I have read this anecdote several times, but I cannot source it on the internet, which makes me question my sanity, such as it is.
Truth be told, I didn't sleep all that well last night - in large part because I slept so much in small naps over the weekend. It's a mistake I make nearly every weekend, and it's annoying. Oh well. We'll try again next weekend.
The weather has turned fall-like, which is to say, rainy and gray, with a little chill to the air in the mornings. I am enjoying it. Interestingly, I completed glossed over Oktoberfest this weekend. My usual fellow fest-ers were otherwise occupied, and I had no intention of going alone. It has gotten insanely crowded, I don't really drink, and it's a lot to take in with your senses not dulled with a few pints of beer. I'm at a point in my life where I'd rather sit on the deck with Piper and watch the squirrels go by.
I did make one social call, though - I met a friend's parents for the first time. I think this is important, or at least it is to me. I like knowing where people came from. They were lovely folks and it was nice to meet them. I also took them a cake.
Meanwhile, I need to consider Halloween. I don't know that I will dress up for the office, but I have been asked to two different parties. I can obviously wear the same thing to both, but I have to think about it.
I also have some more travel for work in the near future - which means packing wisely and well. Which, I don't do. It also means accounting for a number of possible weather permutations, and some variety of activities. It's complicated.
Hope all is well with you and yours out there, people.
Be young, be foolish and be happy.
