Nightmare? Premonition?

I had a very strange experience this morning. At 4:27 a.m. I awoke from what was an incredibly vivid dream. When I awoke I was still choking on smoke and could even taste it… The dream was so vivid… This is what I saw.

I found myself standing along side of my car at an airport I didn’t recognize. Strangly I was near the runway and the terminal or some hangar building, I didn’t get a good look. As I was standing there I became aware of a large jet prepairing to take off. At that my point of view shifted to a point in the air above the runway. I was then able to see another jet in parallel to the 1st jet, this jet was sitting as if waiting for clearance to take off. As the 1st jet taxied past this 2nd jet the 2nd jet exploded with a force so large that the explosion tore the 1st jet apart. Then the perception changed again and I was back on the ground, running from the debris. The tail section of one of the planes came tumbling towards me riding the front of the blast. It looked almost as if it were a pin wheel. The black cloud of smoke engulfed everything as the tail section crashed into the building behind me. As the collision occurred I could hear the screams and wailing of countless people. As the smoke engulfed me and I began choaking awake, I heard the disembodied voice of a television announcer discussing the horrific tragedy involving an Air France flight and… Then I was fully awake still choaking, still tasting the horrible fumesl. I turned on the lights and half expected the room to be full of smoke, but it wasn’t… Within seconds my sence of smell returned to normal and all was well. I laid there staring at the fan trying to make sence of what just happened.

Phones… Techno-wierdness

Ok, this is probably going to sound bizzare, but I swear when I’m feeling under the weather, or in a weird mental state, technology just goes wonky around me. Yesterday the email sync server at work, that is responsible for syncing my email to my phone, decided to start forwarding my work email to Chris Maka’s phone… It did it again today… I talked to the guys at work, and they couldn’t find anything wrong. Then later this morning, I got a phone call from Christopher in I.T. (what’s with the Chris names…) informing me that my work voice mail is forwarding to him. Now, Friday I had voice mail on my phone, so I know it was working correctly then, but what the heck…

dangit…   i don’t know if its the meds, the flu itself, or what…  but damn, could we please not screw with my memories…  i mean yes time and time again wish i had more memories with friends, but while laying in bed reminiscing, do i have to “remember” events that never happened?   i mean they are perfectly logical events and fully believable… but damn it they never happened…  and thats just not fair.

By the way…

How many of you woke up this morning, or at some point in the morning had the distint impression it was Wednesday? Perhaps you started taking out the trash, or did some other wednesday only task.

i ran into a TON of people today that just couldn’t shake the feeling that it was Wednesday….

Stop that…

Ok, this message is to the powers that be…
Nice Subtle answer… and by subtle I mean like a tossing a brick through a window… Yes that subtle…  Sheesh…
Knock it off would ya!

I now return you to my regularly scheduled insanity…

A/C Maint

I disassembled my A/C for my bedroom, and found that the slot that is suposed to allow the water that develops on the inside coils to drain to the outside was clogged with mud.  There was also a lot of mud in the pan in the back of the unit.  Note to self, clean the unit a little more frequently. This would explain why the water was suddenly draining to the inside of the house instead of the outside.   I cleaned out the mud as best as I could and made a tiny modification to the 1/16″ slot for water to drain, that is I made the slot larger.  I’m hoping this will better allow dirt etc to work its way outside where it shouldn’t clog up the drain as easily.   I think after the heat wave is over I will remove the unit for a longer period of time and see if I can use the air compressor to better clean some areas that I couldn’t reach.
