While sitting on the john and perusing the latest issue of "Buffalo Rising" (a very useful and informative free magazine which I recommend that everyone get a copy of), I happened to come across page 79. It is an article about BidWell Buffalo, the e-bay company where Peter Singer used to work, that got shut down. (e:news,29956) Here is the warning, if BidWell Buffalo got shut down, it's probably not a great idea to do e-bay business with a man like that. Keep your eyes peeled for the reopening of it, possibly under a different name. (PS: I know nothing about the other people involved with that business, other than Peter).

so, the first part i don't remember.
i do remember being in some sort of mall or train station of some sort, up on the third floor. i had to pee, but the only way down was with an elevator. all the elevators were broken. there was one escalator, but i could not get to it because there were people smooshed on it like sardines, just standing there making it unusable. on an awake note now, i do not think i that escalator could have been working if people were just standing on it like that.
then i woke up because my boyfriend's alarm went off.
then i went back to sleep and dreamed that i was in my apartment, but other people lived there. someone my bed got put in a tiny little room and there was a baby crib pushed right up against the side of my bed. i felt claustrophobic so i pushed the crib over, but i guess i woke up the baby. the baby stood up and looked at me like it was going to cry if i didn't give it my teddy bear (which i hold on to for dear life when i am sleeping). i wouldn't give it to him, so he went back in the crib where i couldn't see him, because there were blankets hung over the side. i thought it was over, but then the baby popped out it's head and arm through a bottom corner of the crib and was trying to grab my bear. he looked evil like fromt he exorcist, but his face was all blue like the zombies in the original Dawn of the Dead movie.
so then i woke up cuz there was a cop outside out building and my boyfriend wanted my nosy little self to get up and watch while he got ready for school.
then i went back to sleep and dreamed that it was nighttime in my apartment. it was labor day night or something, and people were setting off fireworks like 3 inches from my window, so i called 911 and they told me they couldn't do anything to help me because i wasn't because it was labor day. so instead i went to sleep. when i woke up in the morning there was some fair going on outside. my neighborhood in my dream looked nothing like it really does. anyway. it resembled the art festival, but it was a festival celebrating homosexuality. i went down to check it out in my jammies. i was walking around and got a good look at everything, tables and whatnot, then decided to go back to my apartment, which now looked like no building i have ever seen. there was this old man wearing a big purple pimp hat (the kind you can get at 6 flags) and his hat hit me in the face. i said excuse me, and continued to walk towards my building (which was in sight) when the man threw a big brick shaped concrete rock at my head. in my dream it hurt. i turned around and he was still throwing more and screaming "you're going to like me whether you want to or not!" i tried to get to my door withotu being hit but it didn't happen. he was trying to force his way through the glass doors and into the building. somehow i managed to keep him out long enough to get in the elevator and make it up to the third floor. i began to call 911 as i opened the door to my apartment, when the man appeared with more rocks. i forced my way, but i was having a hard time keeping my door shut. they were white french doors. finally the man gave up and said "I'll see you downstairs." i got someone on the phone from 911, but she was in her car, not at work yet, so she couldn't help me. i started crying and the people down the hall (who in my dream was one of the girls i work with) came to comfort me.
then i woke up.

an article about an Alan Keyes comment:

why do people have to be so judgmental and critical of everyone all the time? why can't we all just tolerate each others' differences and be civil? i guess i am a dreamer.

55 days until I leave Buffalo forever
