Dreams

My brain is telling me I'm lonely and missing people. I dreamed about being at a big gaming convention - Gen Con I think - but I decided I was only going to stay for a day because most of the friends and family I associate with that environment weren't around, and the ones who were seemed preoccupied and uninterested in socializing with me.

A bit later, I was dreaming that my brother J and I were outside of my parents' house, and we realized that ants were stealing a bunch of big things from inside. My ratchet, a cutting board, a remote control for a TV... he started trying to squish them with the ratchet, but he broke the driveway, which it turns out was a large hollow piece of concrete with a sort of crawl space inside of it.

I know, writing about dreams is so cliché. I just remember so few of them in general that I'm often tempted to record them when I do.

Transcription

Interview transcription takes soooo looong. I thought I'd just listen and write up my little paper, but I just kind of need to have the text in front of me. Still, said text is getting sloppier and slopper as I go along....

Pretty Autumn Arm Warmers

I should get back to transcribing. I'll do that now. But I'm looking at Sock Dreams again. So many wonderful things there!

These rainbow tie-dye arm warmers would be so great for early Fall!

These leaf-pattern ones would be too.

And there are so many cute and/or pretty socks there that I want! But nobody would ever see them because men's clothing doesn't show off your legs, and I'm not brave enough to wear a sarong or something out in public. (Even though sarongs are actually a traditionally masculine garment depending on where you are, so nyeh. Isn't all this masculine/feminine stuff ridiculous?)

Oh well. I can imagine.
