Vernal Equinox Tuesday night I went over to Cassius's place with Jaybird to exercise. Cassius is big on using kettle bells. Basically they're spherical weights with a sturdy handle. Mostly they're used for cleans and swings but he showed how versatile these devices can be. After about a half-hour of this exercise Jaybird was beat and I was trying to come down from my left hip hurting like crazy and a tightness in my back. Looks like Tuesdays are going to be used for something useful. Cassius says that one can realistically lose about eighty pounds in about forty weeks.
In Yer Dreams
Considering recent dreams, apparently I'm living in a motel or some odd condominium community outside of waking life. Night had fallen and I was crawling along the pavement in hopes of infiltrating my room. There were militia types everywhere but they weren't hostiles.

Turns out that this building was the only building in the surrounding area which actually had light. Of course it was the sickly yellow light of sodium lamps rather than clean, clear daylight or its equivalent. When I finally made it to my room I crawled onto my bed and peered out the window towards the mountains. There was no moon in the sky but everything was lit like a full moon was looming overhead. Everything was dark but I was able to see everything, outlines of buildings which appeared to be painted a flat black, the snowless mountains that stood out against the even darker sky.

All this reminded me of the land of the dead and the dream where I saw a city made up entirely of demolished buildings across a stygian shore.
