I had a dream last night that I couldn’t sleep.
Do you have any idea how fucked up it is to dream that you can’t sleep?
It was a sign how the day was going to go.

I had a dream last night that I couldn’t sleep.
Do you have any idea how fucked up it is to dream that you can’t sleep?
It was a sign how the day was going to go.
… and guess what? I’m gonna keep doing that. See you tomorrow.
… and taking the night off.
I kind of want to solve all of the world’s problems with violence tonight, which means I probably ought not to be writing about it in public. I’m in a hell of a mood.
That said, I should be seeing Fantastic Four tomorrow, so hopefully that’ll be fun.
Second Saturday in a row I’ve been sick as hell all day. No thank you.
I just lost half an hour to scrolling through my own BlueSky feed looking for something instead of searching for it, and I want to finish this Goddamn WoT book before bed, so I guess I’m not posting tonight?



I think today was the closest I’ve ever come to telling everyone in the house to head for the basement without an actual tornado warning. The top video is out my front window; I saw the first tree across the road fall almost immediately when the wind started, and missed the second one. My wife saw the tree fall in our back yard (second picture) which is the second time that our neighbors behind us have had a tree fall into our yard, thus becoming, by Indiana law, our problem.
The final picture is from maybe 20 minutes later, rain still falling, as every Hoosier-ass dad in the neighborhood and their dogs went outside to wander around and look at the carnage. I may hop in the car soon and see how the rest of the area looks; supposedly there are a lot of power outages nearby but we’re fine.
Yikes.
And yet, I find myself sitting at my computer at 8:35 at night with not much to say, especially since I didn’t get home until late and then sat in a chair for far too long. I’m taking the night off; be good to each other.
