Randomness to end the year

I was able to sleep, eventually, last night, but as I feared, I was plagued with odd dreams.

It seemed like on continuous dream but in it my uncle was back in the hospital because someone fed him a nice meal that happened to disagree with him, and as I was talking with my mother and brother, I ate a piece of chocolate with the metal wrapper still on it. I went looking for a place to spit this out, and I ended up in a conference room. After I had cleared my mouth of the refuse, I spied a large monitor on the wall and decided to watch porn on it. After a little bit of time, a group of people walked in and started talking about various people. It turned out that this was a search committee for a job, and I had interacted with the candidates. I recommended "Chantelle" and then had to leave.

As I said, it was odd.

Yesterday, as TEA and I were discussing Narnia, he brought up reincarnation as well as the possibility of preternatural existence. I was at a loss to point out the flaws in his argument and that disturbed me a little. If these are things he wants to believe in, that's okay, but I still have trouble understanding. It did prompt a conversation about karma and such and I was able to use my standard line regarding this. The universe doesn't care.

But...

It did get this song stuck in my head for the rest of the day.



Which isn't a bad song to end one year and start another.

I have made a couple of resolutions for the upcoming year and the one that I am going to share here is that in my home, I will be a dietary vegan, which isn't that hard to do and I will try to maintain a vegetarian lifestyle out of the home. I will make mistakes, and I won't be a zealot but...I just feel better when I am not consuming animal flesh and that is what is about.

And then there is this from someecards.com...

  1. Veganism? Did this happen because of a bad recent experience with the pseudo-meat known as Scrapple?

  2. Not at all. I wanted to do it earlier but the Holidays made it difficult. It is really easy to keep the house vegan and I do feel a lot better when I am not burdened the extra weight.
