I dreamed I was walking with someone I was nuts about. If I'm not still, why do I keep dreaming about her? Anyway, she asked me never to say anything offensive to her publicly. I didn't know how to respond, unsure if I, anyone, could keep such a promise, especially given my frustrations as a writer. The scene then shifted. I was working a menial job, harassed by a supervisor, interviewed by the company psychologist. I called her over-educated and a megalomaniac, and pointed out that she'd written "should of" rather than "should have" on a form, a common error I assured her nitpickers would mercilessly criticize. I sensed she believed I was on the brink of a nervous breakdown and scoffed. The root of the dream is easy to analyze. The past three sessions of the floating book shop have been disappointing, demeaning even, and it is a struggle to keep bitterness in check. I have -- outwardly.
I sometimes receive humorous emails from friends. I chuckle at most and hit delete. I share the following, which I found well above average:
Confucius Say: Kiss is merely shopping upstairs, for merchandise downstairs.
Confucius Say: Better to lose a lover than love a loser.
Confucius Say: Sex is same as bank account. You put it in, you take it out, you lose interest.
Confucius Say: Viagra just like Disneyland -- one hour wait for five minute ride.
Confucius Say: Much better to want the mate you do not have than to have the mate you do not want.
Confucius Say: Joke is like sex. Neither any good if you don't get it.
