On the way to class

I saw a very large black and brown falcon, while waiting for my bus. Yep.

Was late to class, today, but still had a lot of interesting topics, like gun control, and the like, about which to talk.In NRM, we went over apocalyptic stuff, and i had to yell at the class as to why ushering in an age of "Unconditional Love and Light" is a crap idea, in this cause and effect universe, in which we've agreed to live, for now. The more you place pressure on one perceived end of the fulcrum (i.e. love, light, and fluffy bunnies), the greater the reaction from the other end (i.e. Hatred, darkness, and slithering things with spikes and teeth in.). This universe strives toward balance. All parts are equally important to that balance, and "Good" and "Evil" are matters of perspective, and preference. Which is not to say they are unimportant, by any means.

I was very close to flipping my shit, today. Too much fluffy, happy, all or nothing New-Agery, in conjunction with metaphysics, and not enough thinking about the presentation of things, and making judgments from personal experience and true discernment, as well as how it Felt. Simply going on what you wanted to believe was true. Which, i guess, serves it purpose. But it makes a lot of things a lot harder to understand and accept.

I'm out. Later.

Dreams of Wartime Downtime...

Gathering, hosted in a cafe, during a war. R. Lee Ermy is there, and there is a lot of drinking, and mingliung. It's alsoa store, partly the watch store. John Hill, from Cheers, owns part of it, and another part is like a small apartemnt, or a dorm in th GSU village. When you walk in the door, there's a kitchen on your left, and then a dining room table, a little further in. Kind of like the apartment, from "Look Who's Talking." R. Lee is drunk and he thinks that people think we're together.

There is another party, happening somewhere else, now, and i'm there, and the apartment is also a fairly upscale house, in Bethesda, MD, with a back yard and pool, and we're on the pool deck, and there are kittens, everywhere. It's connected to the first party. There are people cooking food, and i'm laying down, in the dark room, that is also the pool deck, which is also this diner, and i'm trying to ignore the people pleading for me to do something about something, and this woman keeps trying to seduce me. I keep getting up and helping the people, when i can, and where there is actual Help to be Had, and then i lay down, again, next to the diner counter/apartment door. The woman starts talking to me, and the words she says are about fulfilment, and need, and making me happy, and she starts kissing my top lip, and i start to fall asleep. I Turn away from her, quickly, still laying down.

Sections, quick flashes of interactions between Black Mage and White Mage, of 8-Bit Theater. Him telling her his life story, and actually communicating, with her, while she heals him, from some grievous injury. Black Mage studies, and gains more knowledge and power.

More kalidescope flashes of various fragments. Doors in the floor, etcetera. I wake up

That was my brain, wanting a break... but still trying to get something do, i guess... Kind of annoying. The second party felt like Tae Kwno Do class, back when i was eight. That same feeling, and sense-memory triggers, without the physical exertion. And the Kittens were important, i think.. Very loving, very cute kittens...

I dunno, it's slipping away. I'll talk to you all, later.

Semi-Disdainful Day.

Virus on my computer. Helped some lady take her clock to her house (read "mansion"), and get it up her insane stairs; no tip. Did just over goal, and i was very bored all day. Thoughts of the dream i had, last night, and i remembered that my friend Merrill (recently of North Carolina, by way of Atlanta) was there. I remember being surprised to see her.

I leave for DC, tomorrow, on the annual birthday-esque visit. Here's hoping all is well, in the city of my birth. I'll be back, Sunday, after (hopefully) driving my car for 10 hours, or so.

Yeah. I'm working on a program of virus eradication. Back later.
