Dream Blogging

A disturbing trend I’m noticing in my dreams lately – when something unusual happens to me, as often happens in dreams, one of my common thoughts during the dream is starting to be, “This is going to make a great blog entry!” Just like that old xkcd comic, only in dreams. I’ve had this thought at least twice this week now, that I can remember. I need to stop spending so much time on the internet.

The ice last week caused 3 snow days for the kids. So they got 3 days off in addition to Christmas break, which begins today. Oh, I mean “winter break” as the school calls it to avoid offending anyone who doesn’t celebrate Christmas. We had a couple days of good snow where the kids could actually go out and play in it. On Friday we bought some sleds and went sledding at Bryant Park for about an hour in a mixture of melting snow and mud. We were a mess by the time we left. It’s the first time we’ve been sledding since we moved to this state since the snow here sucks.

Really I need to just start driving to the nearby cities with higher elevations so we can go sledding in real snow, instead of complaining about Albany’s lame snow. There are plenty of places I could go for that. Maybe we’ll do that this week.

Friday night I tried going to the gym and they were closed “due to the weather” even though there was was absolutely no snow on the ground or ice on the roads. Lazy jerks. On Saturday we went to see Yes Man and The Day The Earth Stood Still. (Why didn’t the aliens just turn off our power to begin with instead of trying to exterminate us?) Sunday was swimming. Yesterday I downloaded Spore and put it on the kids computer and they played it nonstop. It looks really neat. They attempted to stay up all night playing it, but Payton told me this morning they only made it until 1:30am.

  • wow. my blogging addiction hasn’t quite reached my dreams yet…that’s simultaneously awesome and frightening.

  • You are not the first person I’ve heard recently that dreamed about blogging! I think Renae was telling me something about a dream she had about blogging? I can’t remember who it was but it’s funny that your not the only one.

  • This year I’ve also been Rickrolled in my dreams and I’ve dreamed of html scripting problems. And I think it was 2007 when I had dreams about playing Desktop Tower Defense. I need to get outside more.

  • You could always start a dream blog, but those things are so lame.

    I’ve actually dreamt in HTML. That was freaky.

  • doesn’t it suck when you trip on a and fall on your and then your pants

  • I saw The Day The Earth Stood Still and thought it was lame. I had the same thought you did about killing the power instead of us. I thought the movie sucked.

  • I’ve had dreams about people on the internet, including you. I kinda can still remember it, too. You didn’t talk much, just observed quietly. It wasn’t a dream with a plot just one of those meandering dreams.
