Before bed: felt sick when woke up; worked; took care of my friend's plants; decided not to go to my friends' house for a bbq but another friend came over for a visit; went on Youtube

To bed at 11:36pm

6:51am

1. A friend and i are having a dinner party. I'm on the way there, it's winter, and i'm in a back lane, in the afternoon, and i find a pair of incredibly long rollerblades. There is no sole liner inside, but i try putting them on walking/sliding with them, but can't really move. (Maybe i ended up removing them and just walking?) By the time i get back to going to the party i'm late.

2. I'm at the church i grew up in, in the sanctuary. A recent pastor is speaking and makes an analogy of Jesus with the cross by talking about fishing with someone. After the service (or maybe during?) i'm suddenly in a multi-generational Sunday School class. A younger parent in the church is teaching and gets mad at a young man who would be from my Sunday School class, and tells him to meet her by her office. Outside of the class we hear her yelling. I start walking over. There is a youth event and a friend from my Sunday School class stops me and says, "At least you'll be there in spirit," meaning to make a joke about my belief in spirits. I respond, "I'll actually be there."

3. Talking to one of my dad, he says i look more like his mom than i do like him, but on my mom's side he says i look more like my mom. It was a heartfelt moment.

4. At work, but the power is out, or flickers in and out. The store appears more like the basement of the store. People have to walk through a broken down area to get to one small area of the store. Lights keep going out. I consider making a corridor with some big rolls of paper (i would hang the paper from the ceiling), but someone comes in. I offer the customer--the customer is older, bigger, shorter, friendly, not physically attractive-- some food from a deep freeze. She chooses lasagna which is already prepared, but i need to boil i in a big pot on the nearby stove.
