I had a dream that Bob rented a Space Boat. The Space Boat was shaped like a spaceship and sailed out to the middle of the ocean, where it's dark, so you could pretend like you're in space. Admission to the Space Boat cost $160 and water bottles were $10 and ice cream cones were $12. I suppose the day will come in my life when water bottles and ice cream cones will cost just that. Everyone's shoes got stolen on the boat. And I didn't want to pay $160 but I did anyway since everyone else was super-enthusiastic about the Space Boat.
Just in time to rescue me from a ho-hum, craptacular summer in which all the self-esteem building that was done in my childhood is being undone on the daily, a trip to the Pacific Northwest w/Swilkes and Dyna is now on the horizon! I've been lamenting the low number of close ladyfriends in my life, esp. how I've floated away from a lot of my college-era ladypals. Forch, Swilkes and Dyna and I still rock the same page lo these many years hence. Some of the most fun moments of my life have been with Swilkes in her hometown of Seattle. AND BONUS: Average temperatures of 60 degrees.
I am of the opinion that if one complains loudly and consistently enough about one thing, then if they don't change it in their lives, they are asinine. I complain loudly and consistently about the weather and yet I don't endeavor to summer elsewhere so much (all my travel monies are spent on Vermont from here on out). However, next summer I am making like a tree and leaving. No more hot hot heat in my life. Hopefully my scheme will work...
