On Sunday we went for a walk out on the ice. Well, we were going to, but as soon as we got out on the ice at Times Beach we heard cracking and booked it back to land.
Tifft was a much better and less windy option anyway.
We found this shell of a water tank along the rail tracks. I think it was a water tank, there were four old piles in the ground on the inside. They took off the roof at some point so all that was left was the concrete shell.
A diode on the train track, for switching maybe? Paul said it looked like an explosive
We were werewolf tracking.
Terry's got a big bushy stalk.
Paul tried to make a flute.
What are these metal baskets hanging in the trees? Artificial nests?

Sleep ParalysisCategory: dreams
While I was napping on Saturday I had the most Inception like dream I've ever had.
I dreamt that (e:paul) and (e:terry) and I went up to the old North Park library for a party. We got there, and Paul left to go pick someone up. Terry and I were talking sitting down talking to this couple, but I couldn't turn and look at them because Terry was holding on to me via meine schlange. I wanted to tell him to let go, but it just made me wake up (or at least I thought). I started to tell Emily (who was in our bedroom?) to tell Terry to let go again, since he was still holding on, but I couldn't form any words. While this was happening my eyes opened for real, and I could see Terry, who was holding on for reals. I tried to tell him to wake me up but I couldn't talk, move, or even breath. Apparently I really was just laughing in real life, which makes me think I was having sleep paralysis.
Basically scientists think it's the boundary between being awake and REM sleep. Lack of sleep is considered a cause, which definitely could have been after the rave. The brain gets out of control sometimes.

Lazy SaturdayCategory: lazy
After the rave on Saturday (e:joe,58770), we had an absolutely lazy Saturday. (e:terry), (e:paul) and I got up at noon, went to eat at West Side Bazaar (e:joe,58771). After Paul and I ended up napping (I think I was starting to get sick too).
Of course we were hungry again so Paul and I were going to get pasta from the coop. Paul didn't want to walk, so we nixed that and ended up driving to Curly's with (e:mike). The chips were redonk but we demolished them.
We hung out with Mike at home after dinner while he told us about all the important acronyms he uses for work, and the importance of cultural sensitivity. After he left we watched Teen Wolf and went to bed.
I felt kind of bad having such a lazy day of eating/sleeping/bed/repeat but I guess Paul and Terry are right when they say you don't always have to be accomplishing something.

Here today, gone tomorrowCategory: downtown
They started to take down the Delaware Court Building on Chippewa the other day. Its so fucking stupid that we are giving money to Uniland and Delaware North to take down a perfectly good building when we have so many empty lots downtown, especially to just shuffle the deck with a new glass box.

went past the building today and they have all this metal stuff in the ground and the building is down to about Bada Bings .....
Building a new building there makes no sense when the former HSBC they call it one senca one or something is basically empty .. it makes no sense to put in a huge building and give them tax credits for it........

This makes me very sad. I'm sure the new building will be swell and everything, but like you said, there are so many empty lots around. It is difficult to believe this was the best alternative.

West Side BazaarCategory: food
After strugglebussing it out of bed this afternoon (oops), (e:paul), (e:terry) and I decided to go to the West Side Bazaar. I've been wanting to go there since I heard about it when Paul and Terry went there. So much good food for cheap.
We ran into (e:Heidi) and (e:dianne) who were there for international women's day. terry and I split the Ethiopian vegetable platter. We also got samosas, baklava and a bubble tea with no bubbles. I wish they didn't use Styrofoam plates though.
I have no idea what that is but looks like a bomb to me as well ? Could be feeders in the trees ?????
NICE :-)
lol, I took it out of draft mode before I was ready! Whoops.
Wut, no commentary? :P
