HOT DAMN WOOT WOOT WOOT'n'HOOT!! !! 
The Wife found my King Crimson tape. (Court of the Crimson King) Of course she hid it to begin with. Oh joy oh rapture, my deviously conieved and ill conceived plans can move forward. This song should stick for about a week. 
Which was not part of the plan, but I just live with it. Could be worse, it could be something by the Everly Brothers.

I have so much to do, responsibilities while Jim is away ... But you keep drawing me in, and now I am lost in your musings and dreams. So wise! Such insights! I love you all and embrace you.
On to Life!

Do we need to start a "Hooked on WP" support group, Nannarob? I'll join!

I don't know if it's being hooked on the site or the people that post on the site. I'm hedging toward the latter. That would be an interesting group, Aspies who need help avoiding being social. Must admit I've not had this problem before.

Glad to see people excited about life again! 
A couple thoughts on Lau's dream:
When you just jumped into the flow without "forcing things" and without "prejudging" you did a perfect job: You tried cricket, which you had never before been interested in, and found that you could catch perfectly and effortlessly, and it was fun! How neat to find a skill and interest that you did not know you even possessed! You impressed yourself, and so tried to use the same information to impress the woman at the bar.
But when you tried to over-analyze things and plan too much (figuring out the exact change with the most amount of coins) the amount kept changing. Which became frustrating. And instead of just enjoying the beers you bought you got hung up over their cheap price, and kept misplacing them and people kept drinking them for you. Separately, you tried to impress the woman, and so didn't.
I say: your dream says just flow!! ! Try new things and discover talents you didn't know you had! And just being yourself will impress the woman in tonight's dream. And the beer will be free and you'll actually get to drink it.
I have always been impressed with you, and you have never had to try.

On talks of dreams:
The old "We only use 10% (or other small fraction) of our brains." saying is an urban myth. We use every bit of it. Almost the entire brain function has been elucidated. A few years ago, only "the silent area" was unknown territory. This area is becoming smaller as its functions are being discovered.
This is the place of hallucinations and dreams.
They have discovered that this is a memory area for music and sounds, and peoples voices, and things you see, and memories of familiar and old sights.
People who have seizures that originate in this spot experience temporary amnesia. Or deja vu, or have auditory hallucinations, or remember forgotten dreams.
It is an integrative creative zone.
Perhaps it is the area of original thought sparks and showers.
In us, it is not "silent".

I loved it. Sarah Brightman? Couldn't have been more appropriate or needed. Like Robyn, I got hooked on the video too. It was also very moving. Thanks, Lauri. It's been a good day in the cafe, music, laughter, love, and friendship are the best medicine.
Hi Robyn, Nice to see you. Isn't it great when the men folk go away and we can have control of the remote controls and tech toys? I always enjoy flying solo for a while.

I always like it when you have the floor, and when the women folk have it, and I get to see your interesting thoughts.
Oops! (Chuck , who realizes that he has just butted in and intruded, butts out and disappears).

No need to leave, your butt is not intrusive.

There are and still will be difficulties and there will still be pain, but at least I'm not alone anymore. And that makes an immense difference in how I feel when I go to sleep at night.
And that's the last gushy, smooshy, touchie-feelie thing you'll ever get me to write. So use it well.
awwwwww... Nannie. . .you care for us. . you really, really DOOOOOO!!
I am teasing, but your words are true. I will still have problems, still will have pain, but I am no longer alone, I have our little circle here and that has made all the difference in the world. When I come to think how I could have missed out if Lupine had not been so insistant on recycling, I shudder. . .
Saved by my family so I could keep in touch with my family, damn. . that is what families DO, isn't it!
a very grateful

richie mentioned where he was from, haven't been there in years and must admit all I really remember is Hanover Farms in that area. I was thinking for some reason when CC was using a different location under her avatar she might be from that area. A band named Live did a song they dedicated to York Pa., they called it Sh*t Towne. Know anything about Harley Davidsons richie? I wonder if Hanover Farms still makes shoes. I wonder if that crazy ass guy I knew with the GTO (3 duces, 389) still is alive and living in the York/Hanover area. Most hair rising car ride I ever took in my life was with him. God what a ride, danced with death that night.
