T-Rex Dream
I had a dream that Baha’i and Mormons were having a public vote in front of a giant statue of Mohamed about who would run the one world government. Most Mormons didn’t show up though because the process was rigged. A small insect was flying around collecting the votes and came to the last vote…

Awake on Sunday
I set two alarms for church on the Sundays that I intend to go. I got up between the first and second one. This is not usually the case. I roll back over after the first and second and try to get a little more sleep until I have maybe twenty minutes left to get…

Comfy Chair

My Family versus My Headache
I woke up feeling sick this morning. I had a headache and some queasiness. I took some pills and went to a family function anyway. They’re good people but they annoy me. I’d rather be at my computer than in front of a fire. My oldest son didn’t come because he had to work. But…
