dreams

1. From a week or so ago: I dreamt that I went to my 10-year college reunion [which has been on my mind lately since it's coming up this spring and it doesn't look like I'll be able to go :( ] and saw my friend Dave. He told me that he had just joined the FBI and had to leave shortly to go begin his training, which was going to involve living in a barn with a bunch of other trainees. So he was bemoaning the upcoming loss of privacy. He also told me that as his first assignment he was going to have to marry some random woman. The FBI brass hadn't said why. He showed me a picture of her.

2. Last night I dreamt that I was working in a hospital ER and an obnoxious couple came in. The wife was having some kind of pain and wanted a prescription painkiller, which she supposedly had a prescription for, but didn't have it with her. After some argument about whether we would give her the drug anyway, her husband left in a huff to go find the rx, and I snidely offered the wife some Tylenol. She declined, but then I saw her take some tylenol pills from another patient's bedside tray and swallow them. Except that those pills were supposed to be administered rectally. I told her this and her eyes nearly popped out in horror. ;) Then I went to ask some of my colleagues whether taking those pills orally would harm the patient, and they of course cracked up laughing. The End.

Yeah, that was definitely one of the weirder dreams, even for me.

wah. I was hoping we could have a meet-each-others-kids planned... though with your Year O'Drama I do understand...

Well, I don't see how I can possibly afford plane fare, let alone accommodations and food. Even assuming that I get a job fairly soon, my financial condition is still going to be pretty bad by May, unless it's a ridiculously, implausibly high-paying job.
