I live in the biggest state in 'Merica! The constant state of disappointment.
In other news, my right eye feels weird. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

So we meet again, prognosticator.
You broke the Sword of Mana's suspension of disbelief so badly I had to look up your meaning before advancing the text. And look who has two thumbs and remembers your meaning almost a decade later. That's right, it's me.

Cool, what a dream. Now I need to add "do hippos produce milk" to my search history. I woke up asking, "was that guy with stunning eyes showing me, asking if that's possible? He already had a sign explaining how. Hippos are mammals.". They do, by the way. And hippos make their own pink sunscreen.

This story is flying under the radar. I'll give it a little signal boost.

Weird dream note that no one asked for. Multiple, even several, clear colorful rulers of varying sizes are fanned out in front of me. I ask why I have so many. Along with many screens on the wall (like the image below). Again, I ask why there are so many. Riveting stuff, my friends. Riveting stuff.

I made the smaller paper version of the poe lamp, but then I thought, "you know what? I CAN add as much detail as the large one.". So I will. Pen for scale.

There are ok drivers, good drivers, bad drivers who don't understand that they should move in the passzone instead of tailgating so they can speed, and then there are out-of-state drivers who block large roads with their massive minivans and idle while being completely unaware of their surroundings.

Weird dreams September 16 edition. There's this guy. He lost his legs (at the hip) and dragged himself around. Big footprints and small paw prints lead outside. He has legs now. In a bus or hummmmmv, he mentioned that his name was Seth. Yesterday a strong jawed baseball player was on a wooden boat.

I asked for a summary of the neighborhood meeting. Apparently seeing our next door neighbor there was bigger news than finally getting council members.

"...Grahame used the bedtime stories he had told Alastair [his son] as a basis for the manuscript of The Wind in the Willows." -the Wind in the Willows wiki page. I wonder if there's an audiobook version. I'll ask Auntie Internet. Uncle T.V. has been too much lately.

Guess who forgot that some non-ferrous metals need flux to solder? I'm just gonna check the mirror and get back to this later. I might just crimp them together. That was the plan before I told myself, "YoU hAvE tHe CoRrEcT sOLdEr FoR aLuMiNuM.".

Welp, maybe too prepared. As it turns out the tin has a 2027-2028 expiration date. One glass jar is lost to time.

The small prototype lamp still works. But can I make it smaller and dare I try to solder some scrap metal after the wave of too much caffeine passes?
Spoiler alert: I does dare. I found the solder element thing yesterday. With Tiger Balm and cold water ready in case I burn myself in the process.

I listened to N.P.R. (National Public Radio station #90.7 if you have a radio, it's free to listen to) I didn't know this organization made PDFs to explain things. I'm not an early education expert. I'll post this to Facebook for old people. There's also a truck touring.

I like that some countries are realizing if something seems off with trade, security, or immigration. They pump the brakes so they can do full audits and make sure what's being said and done matches what was written down. Something, somewhere is a skew and it needs to be found BEFORE it gets worse.

Here's an extra I can't seem to get out of my head. Someone is working at a kitchen counter with their back to what I assume is a camera. They turn their head to their left and exclaim, "oh no, Mom's gonna be hot.". I'm glad they were wearing an apron or smok, spot cleaning a shirt can be annoying.

3)Driving with a female"friend". She turned left onto an unfinished road which became a rollercoaster. Eventually the car started to go off the rails and I (perspective wise) jumped out. It's better to land on a rail than be crushed in wreckage with someone who doesn't understand how roads work.

There were three weird dreams. The first one is very hazy, I remember it happened but not sure what happened. 2. Using a jackhammer or a drill to demolish a parking garage ceiling which seemed to stop crumbling after the drilling stopped after they realized they could die. Maybe they're mining?

It'll just put it out there. On a double post day. Saint's Row is a better videogame than Grand Theft Auto. Soundtrack, visuals, gameplay, general "funtime having" while using someone else's account because I don't want to buy a whole new system for one game.

After some cleaning and other people moving the clean stuff around. This happened. The peach puff is trying to nonchalantly check on what the hardhat puff is looking at. #Winnonapeachfest.Can1992 (if I leave it as Ca. People think it's California.) Do tags work here? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Slowly getting back to checking social media. Key word is slowly. The radio and newspaper are still more interesting. One way to start is by hitting "clear all" on notifications.
