A Formal Dinner

Last night I dreamt that I was at a very large formal dinner, a black and white affair. It was held in a massive hall and there were thousands of attendees. It had the feel of a state dinner or an awards dinner - all brilliant white china and silver.

Dream One: I Shoot Morgan Freeman

Dream One: I am a cop in rural SD again. I respond to a call at a farm house to find Morgan Freeman terrorizing Ron Livingston. Just as I arrive Morgan shoots Ron. Morgan shoots at me. I shoot Morgan.

Morgan jumps into his car and flees into the back country on a road that I know goes no where. I tend to Ron while I wait for back up. Ron's wound is a flesh wound - painful but none life threatening. In a strange twist in the dream I am not me - however I am the first cop who arrives as back up in about twenty minutes. I see myself in the third person.

After the ambulance arrives to take Ron away ny brother D., also a cop, arrives. We follow the road. and find Morgan a few miles away, crashed into a draw. In the earlier exchange of gunfire I hit him in the left lung. A very vivid dream.

Waiting - The Complete Version

Well, I am currently sitting in the airport at San Diego waiting for a flight delayed for two hours.

Okay, let me try that again. I actually went to hit save draft and hit send. Consequently the previous entry is short and succint. That might not be a bad thing though.

Our flight from SAN to SJC got delayed on the ground in Sacramento and we're now scheduled to depart about two hours behind schedule, which will put us into San Jose about five PM.

Fortunately I've always found the best approach to a traveling day is to just relax and flow through the day so that is what I've been doing.

Airports are also great places for your basic people watching, so I have been enjoying the day - and I am sure the flight will be, basically, an hour and a half nap. I am looking forward to getting home!

San Juan Capistrano

A pleasant day trip to San Juan Capistrano to see the Mission there. Well worth the diversion. It was also accompanied by a excellent burger at a place called Ruby's right across from the Mission. Traffic flowed pretty smoothly until the very end when we were briefly snarled on the 805.

I Dream of Driving

I woke this morning from a dream that I was a limo driver. Basically, I drove people around a city each day. Though low income, it was a peaceful and fulfilling existence. Very zen in its rhythms.

I am in San Diego for two more days and the plan, in general, is to keep them as simple low key as possible. I started that by sleeping in late this morning (well, late for me). I am not sure what I will do today, but the plan is - there is no plan.

Walking the Floor

Okay - I spent the last three hours walking the vendor floor. I picked up a couple of small things, but nothing major. There are a few graphic novels I'd like to get, but no real reason to buy then here and carry them home. I can get them at home. About to wrap with with Talk Back and head out to get some dinner.

Sunday with Jack Kirby

Starting Sunday with a tribute panel and a retrospective of the work of the legendary Jack Kirby. Tony has wandered off to stand in line for Castle. I am in a "no line standing" mood today. Going to focus on the more intimate panels, and then wander the vendor floor.
