How exciting! I have no idea what I'm doing. 

Just gotta keep walking. What could go wrong.

I went in to the cafe next door and ordered breakfast. I'm not sure why. Other than I like breakfast. 

I do feel like I'm busy out of work now. So that's different. It's a good busy. Mainly I feel like there's a bunch of stuff I should be doing. Technology to acquire. Skills to learn. Capture cards? Overlays? Yes and yes. 

Also I have to call PayPal. And my insurance for coverage of my brain medication. Also two birthday parties to attend this weekend. I should vacuum. Yeah, I can vacuum real good.

Went out for dinner last night at Cock and Tails. It was great. Small place, with live music. I'd like to go again.

Last night I dreamed of a burning building. It was some kind of apartment complex with multiple living units, each with large glass windows. The fire was on the roof of the building, and slowly making its way downwards. I was running around it trying to help people get out. Some of them did, but a lot of them remained inside because they refused to believe there was a fire. In my dream, I was hurling large objects at the windows to try to smash the glass and drag the people out before the fire reached them. I cut myself pretty badly on my left arm and hand dragging people out through the windows. My friend Page was there too, and she insisted I patch myself up before I went back to try again, so I did. I remember feeling in that moment that I was possibly going to get myself killed trying to help people who didn't want to be helped. 

Tonight, I'll try to dream of puppies.

Hello! How are you? I'm good, thank you. I've been having a wild time. Four whole days off and I went to see The Suicide Squad, which was good, and I went to The Undertow, which was a great time. Now I'm back at work and doing the thing where I try to catch up with everything. 

There's a lot I have to learn about this video game streaming stuff. Probably should have spent more time checking that out on my time off. I did a little. Slowly but surely. It's like leveling up any RPG character. Unlock new abilities and figure out how they work with previous abilities. Can't try to do too much at once on your first play-through or you can get stuck with things you don't want.

I've been feeling pretty good though, overall. Like my beloved bamboo, I am growing in unusual directions, but still growing.

Wrap a little twine around it and everything should straighten out eventually.
