First titled post!
Hey guys. I've not posted in a while, so here's my newest update.
My other database partener finally reapeared, so he's working on the project again. This is much appreciated, as I didn't want to spend my whole weekend doing it all. My partner in my computer organization class and I had a breathrough yesturday - we had an odd little bug that never seemed to come up, then my prof emailed us a program which managed to have the bug on the first line. A very random and fortunate event. So that project is going better.
I had several odd dreams this week. The first one, on Monday night, took place in Berkeley. I was with this guy who looked a lot like my dad, but wasn't. We seemed to be old buddies of sort, until he told me that he was on falling on hard times and had to rob the church. I spent some time trying to talk him out of it, but he would not be detered. When we were in the church, he almost pulled a gun on me, so I shouted out, "what are you going to do? shoot me and rob the church?" Apparently that's exactly what he was going to do. I woke up soon after. I think there is a very clear lesson from this: don't peal bananas with shotguns.
Tuesday night, Chad and I were at Campus By The Sea, which is a church camp my family and I used to go to every other year or so. There was some camp counselor there I had had in a 5th grade camp I went to a long time ago named cheese-something. Anyway, Chad and I were having fun doing some sort of hunting thing. Though I spent the majority of the time wondering why Chad would be at a Christian camp, when he is not.
Wednesday night was by far the most fun dream. It started out with me, Jack, and Sam, and someone else who was either Teal'c or Daniel, don't remember who (yes, those are all Stargate characters). We were in a huge kitchen-type room. Think of the kitchen scene in Jurassic Park, but much bigger, and really long. We were trying to hold this room against some enemy - or maybe just not get caught or something. Anyway, in come these three guys - a borg drone flanked by two kingons. That is an odd alliance. They were talking about finding us, while I was hiding on the flood behind a table and cabinets. Then the wall gets blown down and this huge, towering guy walks through the hole in the wall. He appears to be an assimilated kingon, but when he starts talking, he's acting like a goa'uld. And his eyes did that glowy thing goa'ulds like to do. Somehow we managed to get away without being goa'uld-ed/assimilated. As we were running away, my Zat gun's handle started getting longer and unweildy - it got quite snake-like. I tried getting it under control, but ended up having to stuff it up my shirt so I could walk out of Costco past the people who always check your reciept.
I was very confused with that last dream. It was kinda cool to have Stargate mix with Star Trek, but the whole Costco thing was just weird.
Anyway, those dreams are about the most exciting things that have happened to me lately. Oh, I found out I didn't get magically better at pool for no reason, and that I'm not good at darts.
Oh, also, I've found myself loving lots of new music lately. This is much more music than I'm used to adding at one time. The new bands which start with "The" are: The Coral, The French Kicks, The Libertines, The Postal Service, The Shins, The Unicorns, and The Walkmen. I'm also adding a few other non-"The" bands: Calla, Franz Ferdinand, Modest Mouse, new Queens of the Stone Age album, Thirteen Senses, and Unwritten Law. Lots of music!
