dreams...

I was supposed to be at the gym this morning at 6:30 to workout with the guy I always work out with. I set my alarm last night without looking at the time it was set for b/c we had worked out yesterday and I assumed that it was the same time. However, it was set to go off at 6:30 instead of 6:00, so I was, of course, late. No biggie, I can workout on my own. Also, when my alarm went off I was awoken (is it awoken or awakened or awokened or woke up or woken up or waked up or... never mind) out of my peaceful slumber in which I was having quite an involved dream. Having spoken to Mr. Pearson a last week about how we have crazy dreams I decided to write it down so I could remember it in full later. So, for your reading pleasure, here is an insight into my sleeping brain. Side note, I did write this just as I woke up at 6:30 this morning and my brain was not fully functioning. Also, I have not edited it at all so it may be ugly in parts, I don't know. Here goes:


Started out I was in a 7 11 looking for plastic cups. Then this girl was saying something about orange soda so I decided to get some. However there was no sugar free orange soda. It was all either diet or regular or orange soda with iced tea in it. So I just took the cups and went to the register. Then the guy at the register wouldn't let me pay with my card cause he said he wouldn't take my id, which was a little fuzzy but you could still tell it was mine. So I stormed out pissed and put a nano iPod that was from the store into my pocket thinking it was mine cause it was already in my hand. I got just outside the door and forgot my coat, which they checked when I walked in, so I had to go back and get it. When I walked in the security beeper thing by the door went off cause of the iPod in my pocket. But I just grabbed my jacket and left. Then I went to jennas house which was this awesome mostly glass house that was just off a golf course. We were sitting inside and I could see her mom hitting golf balls out of the back courtyard into the golf course but she was yelling something at the golfers before she hit each one. Then a baseball broke through the window and hit me, but I don't remember where. Then Jenna and I tried to get rid of the security thing on the back of the iPod I swiped by just throwing it tin the garbage. After a bit I wasn't convinced no one would find it so I went back and got it and Jenna and I put it inside of a box and pit it back in the garbage. After a while I wasn't happy with that so I got it out again. This time I ripped the pieces of the box apart and put the security thing between them (it was just a paper clip with an orange plastic thing at one end). I still thought the police cold find this so I wandered around the other side of their house looking for somewhere to put it. The place was filled with all of jennas stuff for her new house. Mounds of stuff was everywhere. Eventually I just put it back between the box pieces and put it in the garbage. Then jenna and I were sitting in the floor with Jenna sort of on my lap and a golf ball broke through the window and hit me on the inside of my left upper thigh. I didn't react at first. It took like 2 seconds for the pain to hit and then I twitched. I told Jenna that i just got hit by a golf ball and she didn't believe me. So I showed her the spot on my leg and the hole in the glass. The ball also glanced off the coffee table and made a long dent that was for some reason filled with water then. Then Brian gave me some ice in a ziplock bag. He told me that he would have given me his nice ice pack but it was too close to my "junk" he called it. Jennas dad still didn't believe me that I got hit. I also had scrapes down both legs but I don't know what they were from. Then we watched I think it was Cory playing with his dog jersey in the courtyard in the back. But then jersey couldn't lift her butt up anymore to bring the stick back to Cory. It reminded me of sandy when she couldn't get up and I had to leave. A short time later a bunch of people came over for dinner. I was at the table because I couldn't walk because of the golf ball injury that I had to tell everyone about and show the damage to the house. Then I got up to go to the bathroom and had to walk to the opposite end of the house which was pretty big. When I got there both bathrooms were side by side and both taken. So I waited until my phone rang, but it was really my alarm going off so I woke up.


I have said before that I have crazy involved intricate dreams, and this is a perfect example. So there you go. 


Also, big news from the lady friend. First, and I think most important, Jenna did achieve her goal of a pullup!! Not only that, but she did so more than a week ahead of schedule. So congratulate her for that. Also, a minor side note, she did buy a house in St. Joseph, MI where she will be working next year, just as she had planned. 


 
















In regards to medical school. All is well. I spent a lot of time in dissection this week, but got a lot done and taught a lot of people a bunch of stuff, so all is well. I also found this week that you can download an Amazon Kindle app for your computer, mac, iProducts, etc that lets you download books to that device. I used it to download a few medical sciency nerd books including a sample question book for the Step 1 exam and a few just plain interesting books about life as a new doc and old surgery texts. Spent about an hour today reading stories from a young doc's memoirs ish. Pretty interesting stuff. Oh and by the way all of this was free. I mean the only reason I downloaded the books was b/c they were free. There's actually a good number of free books on there. Cool beans, cool beans.

Think thats all I have for you for now. Welp see ya later!
