Dream: YC and I went to New York. While she was off at an interview or a conference or something, I ended up driving through some tunnels into a metro station, where I was walking through lines of people to try and catch a train. The whole parking ramp and station were built as if underground, but had windows that you could see out over a lake from. I had to go to the bathroom. There was a sign pointing through a neon-lit tunnel over the tracks, and I followed it, but I didn't see a men's room at the end. Someone told me, "look for the golden shield", and I realized that here, men's rooms were marked with square yellow signs - I didn't recognise it, having expected blue.

Other dream: Uhm. I think I mentioned it to someone. Fill in later if I remember.

Yesterday (actually the day before if you take 'today' to mean Wednesday) I biked to work through a lot of slush and then found my keys missing. They had come off the clip somehow somewhere between my house and work. I backtracked 4 miles and found them in a pile of snow on the curb of John Nolen Drive. This made me very happy. I was not wearing gloves, because it was not that cold (hence the slush). But today, biking home, my legs were getting frosty even through my double pants.

When I came home I found bunny tracks along the bottom of the curving snow canyon I had shoveled up my driveway. It was cute.

Just organized some pix. Gotta do some X-mas shopping this weekend. And staaaaaauuuffff. Now I really need to get to bed.

I dreamt last night that there was a stop sign in the middle of Gilbert (right by the tennis court) where in real life there is only a regular crosswalk. As the dream went on, the sign became a small island, and a larger one, and eventually there was a tree on it. Back at home I was looking through Christmas presents people had given me (in the dream Christmas had already passed, even though real life Christmas is half a month in the future). One of my presents was a puzzle box from my mom. Inside I found a key that I hadn't noticed before. Aha! I bet this key unlocks the tree, I thought, because the tree had a small locked door in the trunk.

I went back to the road island with the tree, and sure enough, the key opened the door. A cat sprang out and tried to bite my nose, but I caught him by the arms and held him down to the ground so he couldn't. While I was doing this he told me, telepathically, that all life forms have a good side and an evil side, and that I couldn't count on everyone being nice to me all the time, not even my closest friends.

I also had a dream that Jen was going on a tirade about what a jerk Scott was. At first I thought she meant Scott Rouse, but it turned out she was talking about a different Scott that I didn't know.
