Housekeeping

A busy day. Clean bathroom, scrub sink, bathtub, toilet. At first I tried removing a couple of lightbulbs, but it was still obviously dirty, and so I gave in and cleaned. Did laundry, washed sheets, duvet. Put away mail and vacuum carpet. It doesn't sound like much but it took me hours. There's the promise of guests on the weekend and so I really should make some sort of effort to be prepared. I could buy mints for the pillows but that's probably taking things a little far. And - as far as I can tell - housekeeping is a charm to keep away guests. My own private superstition. There's still the matter of the living room, but that can wait for tomorrow...
Went for a haircut. It's a boring haircut, respectable, suitable for going back to work but otherwise not too stylish. And I stopped at the health food store and picked up some Quinoa, they've been talking about it on CBC and I'm curious to see what all the fuss is about. So goes my day. 1 day left and I'm back to work, truly mixed feelings but I checked my bank account and it is a necessity.
Dream of Sex

I never dream about sex. Everything else, but never, ever sex. Or so rarely it doesn't bear mention.
So I begin to nap and it's starting to take off, there are women in my dream and then they're there without their shirts, things are getting better. Naked people in my dream. And I'm getting curious, I never dream about sex but there's women (plural), not singular, and so this could be a really good dream.
And then Telus calls. I try for the next 2 hours to get back into this nap, this dream, before finally giving up.

And the tale goes that Montezuma, to hide his gold and treasure from Cortez and the Spaniards, launched a caravan north that eventually hid it all somewhere in the Southern / South Central United states. All sorts of theories have been proffered as to where it finally ended up, from Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and even Utah, but to date none of it has been recovered. A classic treasure story, with an uncertain treasure hidden in cave(s) and guarded by ghosts.

And this is worthwhile, a site that documents "CHILDREN'S ENCOUNTERS WITH REAL ALIENS FROM SPACE". It's tough to elaborate, the description's so good, but there are links on: "How to make a thought screen helmet" and "Why Aliens Abduct Humans" and "Drawings of Aliens Made by Children" ... it should be a resource in all the public school systems.
