Musical Pipe Dream: I’m wearing a long sleeve, button down, matte silk shirt; it’s CMYK with black panel breast pockets. I’m playing the trumpet in the horn section. We’re kicking our knees forward while pointing our toes down towards the ground then we kick ball change to the opposite foot. We two step as we make our way to the microphone for the hook: Oooooo and I like it …

Blurb 1/365: When I’m getting X-rays done at the dentist, I always enjoy when they put the lead apron on me. It’s like being swaddled. I went to the dentist today and the hygienist put the lead apron on me and stepped away to push the X-ray button. Whitney Houston was playing on the ceiling speakers at a low level. I closed my eyes and felt like I could have almost fallen asleep.

Vice Versa

I just remembered the scene in the movie Vice Versa when Fred Savage’s character with the mind of Judge Reinhold’s character took a school test. He was staring and bored when the teacher mocked him saying something like, “Are you already finished Mr. Seymour?” And then Fred Savage snapped back, “Yes! It was easy.” (Cut to a confused and appalled look on the teacher’s face.) (Cut back to Fred Savage’s impatient face.) “*scoff* (eyes roll, arms gesture outward with shoulders shrugged) Do you have the paper?”

I woke myself up by laughing out loud. I’m gonna try and go back to sleep.
