alexandraerinThe Daily Report
Last night I had a dream that I got back to Omaha and was setting about putting things back in order there when I realized that I'd forgotten to tell my day job that I was leaving town for two months.
Of course, I don't have a "day job"... or rather, this is my day job. But in my dream, I was still doing data entry for a living and it was a serious chunk of my income that I was really depending on.
There were a lot of other anxiety-related things in the dream, including mix-ups involving missed calls on my flaky phone, but it was the job thing that really got to me after I woke up. Of course I had the confused moments of "Wait, do I still have that job?" since the version of my life in the dream had been so vivid, and then as awareness of reality returned I had the tremendous sense of appreciation that my life works the way it does.
State of the Me
Went to sleep at a reasonable hour last night. Slept okay.
Plans For Today
Got a chapter of Tales of MU to finish today. It's over 2,000 words, easily within striking distance. Following my new FIM cycle, I should be taking a stab at writing a flash story today.
