I woke up earlier this week in an odd mood. Maybe I'd dreamed something that bothered me, or maybe it wasn't a dream that was bothering me, but some other subconscious inclusion that had festered long enough in the gray matter and had forced itself to the surface. I couldn't remember dreaming and whatever the thought was, given the date of October 16th, it was between new and nine years old. I had a sense of impending doom, existential angst, fear of failure, fear of success. And nine years is a lot of thoughts.
I ate two wiener wurstchen and finished my coffee.
I went for a walk.
It didn't go away.
I took a nap, calling upon my ability to force vivid dreams on my way in to the inner world. The dreams were fast and furious. I woke an hour later and couldn't remember any of them. I just knew they were good ones.
Off to the Cafe. Coffee. Reading. People watching. I opened a new page in the notebook. I scribbled furiously. I came up with a poem. It wasn't very good. I went for another walk.
It's three days later. I'm okay, but my sense of humor is broken. I laugh at my toilet every time I flush it. Maybe it's symbolic.
