Dreams and Premonitions

Let me preface this with some background:
I am one of those poor souls who can't control their dreams. I am the victim of whatever devious thing my brain chooses to subject on me. I have some control over what I do but nothing like being able to manipulate the dream itself. I can choose my path, but if I need a gun or something I cannot make it appear...I have a friend who can...I am so jealous of him...
Also my dreams are never realistic (some exceptions noted below.) I had one where I was running from the law with some friends that was pseudo real but we hid in a 7-11 with vaulted 23ft. ceilings and when I looked up part of the ceiling was missing, but when I looked up again the ceilings were normal and only 9ft high. This is normal in my dreams. I will also have a dream where I am talking to a friend I know, but they look like someone else. As far as I am concerned in the dream they where my friend, but when I wake up I realize they looked totally different. My mind hates me....

Anyway...

I have premonitory dreams. I know its a premonition because it is realistic. They are the only dreams I have that are realistic. Like just now a dream of mine from ages ago came true. I had a dream before I was even married about changing a kids diaper on a funny looking rug when a strange noise happened. The interesting part is that it was a collaboration of things. The sound was my computer's email program telling me I have mail. It is a custom setting that uses a sound from one of my favorite games, Starcraft. The kid is my boy and the rug is this discount thing my wife got at IKEA. Not a bunch of standard objects that could have randomly been assembled in my mind.

This happens frequently. The intriguing/annoying thing is that they are always a small snippets. Nothing worthy of headline news or something that I should know before hand so I could reverse a horrible choice. Certainly nothing I could make an extra buck on. So far every single time I have a realistic dream, no matter how far fetched, as long as it was physically possible, it has come true. There are couple logged into my memory somewhere that haven't yet come true but that is probably just a matter of time. Many times I have forgotten the dream and the memory is triggered by the event.

This is different than Déjà Vu. It's not that I feel I have done it before. It is that I saw it in a dream. I just keep hoping that one of these days I will get a glimpse of some winning lotto numbers with the Exact date..........

I am having a 'day'

I considered calling it an 'off day' at one point in time, but its not that I feel like I can't do anything right or that everything is going wrong. Its just off...

Let me explain. On days like this I feel lost. I ponder things like the vastness of the Universe and how small I am in comparison. I get a form of the creeps very easily on these days. Not creeps like 'wow, that scared me' or 'I feel evil...' creeps more like shivers and just an odd feeling of something impending or highly emotional disturbance. My mind will often wander to 'what ifs' or things that I find to be overwhelmingly intense...such as the concept of eternity. It's not the heaven/hell things. It's the simple idea of never ending. For some odd reason that freaks me out. I am highly prone to severe mood swings on days like this. I feel like I NEED to be doing something but nothing is appealing, not writing, not video games, not reading, sometimes not even sex. I often want to just curl up in bed and beg for sleep to end the day so I can start over tomorrow. But then my own sense of ethics kicks in and says: "Get your lazy ass out of bed!!!" I will often clean something on days like this, as if cleaning something within reach could help cleanse the dark regions of my mind. Oy, vey...

Yes, I have been to a doctor and had them check for all kinds of diseases both physical and mental. With all saying your just fine. Maybe your just having a bad day....yeah, sure, whatever.

This is some interesting stuff....

I love reading the Straight Dope
I don't know what to say about this:

If I remove data from my hard drive, why doesn't it weigh less?

ROFL, seriously, I almost fell off my chair when I read this. My brain hurts now.

On another note: Spoiler ahead!!! Don't read if you don't want the end of Chronicles of Riddick ruined for you



How about the Conan ending for Chronicles of Riddick...dude I so say that coming from the moment the started talking about "You keep what you kill" and then to make it complete they even had Vin Diesel get in the SAME exact pose as Arnold! LOL. It doesn't hurt the movie any, I actually thought it was kinda cool.

The Car wreck

Okay, get uninsured motorist coverage on your car...I wish I had.

I was minding my own business on October 27th on my way to the Taco Bell up the street from my house. When this knucklehead in the left turning lane decides to make a Right turn! BOOM!!! Ouch, hello Mr. Airbag...

Well at least he is clearly at fault...oh wait...he forgot to pay his insurance bill...DENIED!

So I have spent the last few weeks haggling with the guy over how much to pay along with IF he is going to pay...yikes.

Finally he has agreed to pay but now he is gathering the funds and I have to wait for his bank to clear a bunch of checks...

Really, Really, really wish I had just had uninsured motorist right now, especially considering how little it costs.

The Saga Continues

I can't believe I am writing a blog...sheez what has this world come to.

I stumbled on a site that caters to those who are like me. I wasn't sure if I should be disturbed or curious...Ok, I admit it, I was both. I hate to admit it, but there is a part of me that should be kept under control. I part of me that is dark.

But as the wise Eskimo said:
"Feed the dog you want to win"
