What day is it? I wouldn't know if I didn't keep this site.
Life is okay, Spot is relatively quiet and Gross Cat hasn't been seen since early Monday evening.

raddidge helped me this evening when I wrote another part of my story. The gist that she conveyed to me was that I don't have something to say except to tell a story. What's the point behind the death of 99% of humanity and leaving my clone roaming around the necropolis of Colorado Springs?

Now I'll put it on the back burner and hope something comes up.

In Yer Dreams
Apparently product placement become out of control. The other night during my restrictively scheduled sleep period I dreamt about owning an iPod.
I can't think of any use for an iPod, it's just an Apple-branded MP3 player. Since I don't watch TV and mostly avoid popular media, I can't say that I've been saturated with the iPod culture. Yet it stands that I dreamt about how I owned an iPod.
If I was close enough to another iPod user, I could download their MP3s regardless whether the person wanted them to be available to others. Some person came along and told me how I could jostle the device in such a way to enable a web browser that worked off wireless internet technology.

Why the hell did I have this dream?

The only interesting part of the dream which wasn't about some product was when I learned that I could sell my Volkswagen for $15,000 because these cars are always in high demand by little girls with indulgent fathers. Even if the car was owned by a fat man with questionable hygiene and a penchant for black clothes that weren't color-fast.

Lanky old Gross Cat has returned and is sitting in front of Spot with only the window between them.
I am pleased and hope this means a quiet evening.

Now to leave some kibble outside for Gross Cat.
