Tuesday was host to the first real snow of the season. Before anyone back east thinks that I'm going to be digging out of six foot drifts, the snow out here rarely accumulates more than eight inches.

Best analogy. Every state of the union has its quota of snow. Sometimes New Jersey decides that it's going to use all its snow at once but for the rest of the season there's not much snow. Southern Colorado uses its allotment of snow on a regular, even basis throughout the year. If one wants the kind of snow that's associated with the Donner party, go up to 9,000 feet and head out to the back slope.

bicycle
Despite the snow I rode my bike to the Birdhouse on Tuesday night. The ride back was annoying because my fingers were getting very cold. When I came home I brought my bike back inside.

I like to think that my bike is a happier bicycle. Instead of roaming around the neighborhood late at night, my bike is indoors, safe and warm. No more bell ringing at all hours of the night serenading the other feral bicycles in the neighborhood. Neighbors who need to sleep no longer have to throw shoes to break up the bikes.

By the way, I know you are wondering, the collective noun for bicycles is "chain".

dreams
I have a conundrum. It's all in my head.

More than a handful of years ago I was in a situation where I was afraid to bring up any sexually oriented dreams out of fear of hurting someone's feelings or sparking a fight. So I tend to keep this kind of shit to myself. Also I think it's in bad taste.

Fast forward a couple of years and I'm not having any qualms about posting sexually graphic dreams at heptapod.org which involve other people who are other people that I know in real life regardless if I see them IRL anymore.

Yet early this morning I had one dream that I'm on the fence about posting at heptapod.org.

So I'm going to give the Reader's Digest version that's tasteful and clean despite the content.

In Yer Dreams
I woke up and something was happening to me. The situation's intent was to wake me up. When I was able to see, I saw that it was my neighbor's wife. She said it was cool because my neighbor was watching the situation. He wasn't that interested and seemed to be falling asleep.
