Maps arrived yesterday. (!) Hafto go pick up the other two boxes today. They're kinda heavy. I'll go later. Had dreams this morning involving a very small orange-red hummingbird, a flock of enormous butterflies (much bigger than the largest of birds, their massive wings beating above a vast window-ceilinged room), and a dark, blue-black storm… Continue reading lazy day.

another dream of houses and pools
I remember a recurring drive: we were looking for a place to spend some summer (swimming) time– weekends, maybe. There was an area, a small town or somewhere near water. I think it was Kelley and I– second party vague (in frame but not in focus–). There were a number of places. It felt like a… Continue reading another dream of houses and pools
She reminded me of the Edies*
(A woman in my dreams, that is. It probably has to do with the death of Teddy.) There was this most eccentric family next door. Well, the perspective kept shifting; I was ostensibly watching a movie, only each time I watched it, things happened from a different perspective, based upon where I was– because I… Continue reading She reminded me of the Edies*
In my dreams this morning…
I had a rickety old pianoforte with no lid (which I painted gold, as my apartment walls were an off shade of turquoise). I had also an elephant, which I subsequently lost (as a character might lose a prop to poor continuity after an edit in a film). There I stood, in the same little… Continue reading In my dreams this morning…

dream of eccentrics
In which we visit the farm of an eccentric family and wish to stay– or at least return. Click on the image to see the larger map. It's another long dream... The connection was through Joe– the place belonged to the family of one of his classmates, but Jon, Flip and I were there as… Continue reading dream of eccentrics
another dream
Right. I know it's bad form to go on about dreams; most people aren't interested. But it's my blog and it's all I've got right now anyway. Tired, long long day of computing. (Math and scripts and vectors, oh my!) Skip it if you like, otherwise... In which brilliant code geekery is usurped by hipster… Continue reading another dream
remiss at updates
It's just because I've been so busy with work, and nothing else much to write about. I realize I have also been remiss about Emily's Flat Stanley. Again, haven't had a chance ot take him out in Brooklyn! (Although I did bring him to DC...) Another map from a dream: Excerpt: There was a wedding… Continue reading remiss at updates
Vercingetorix wept.
If the kernel were (not a colonel) a general, the general is Caesar (swift, sudden and devastating attacks!), my poor iMac is Vercingetorix (doomed!), and his luck has run out– Today it's crossed a threshold and it's utterly unusable– even with nothing running save iTunes, it experienced the panic. I'm waiting to hear from the… Continue reading Vercingetorix wept.
Stay calm amid panics.
Dreamed I went to Alaska– or maybe it was Nova Scotia. (Having never been to either place, how was I to recognize it?) Staying in some small town with hills and boulders where shop cats may as likely be fed fish as dry kibble; locals behind on technology made up for it with ingenuity and… Continue reading Stay calm amid panics.
