April showers, indeed.

I seem to have stopped dreaming about grad school. Two nights ago I had an anxiety dream about a high school friend's wedding, which is going to be in May. I'm not even in the wedding, and I'm having anxiety dreams about it? I think I've got crossed wires in my subconscious somewhere.

Last night's mail had the pattern and supplies for the embroidery I'm giving this friend as a wedding present, so that's good. I think I can definitely finish it by the wedding date. I really must remember to look at what I've already got by way of embroidery floss before I order supplies, because I wind up with a whole mess of duplicates otherwise.

On TIM just now there was a brain-as-CPU thread going on. I think my brain would run a lot more efficiently if it didn't get so much spam. Does caffeine count as a spam filter?

So what was the dream?

Caffeine just makes it harder to pay attention to each individual piece of spam.

The dream had to do with some sort of hideous clothing I supposedly had to wear and couldn't find. It wasn't one of those "show up in public naked" dreams, because there was no nudity involved in it anywhere. It was more of a "desperately looking for something necessary and not being able to find it" dream.

Glad to hear it.

Nope. It's overclocking. What do you think my "Overclocked" t-shirt is referring to?

A paper shredder would be the SPAM filter. Technically, the computer still sees all the SPAM, it just prevents the user from seeing it. (Hey, it makes sense in my head.)

What are you doing for the wedding present?

"Flowers in the Springtime" by Bent Creek. I asked Theresa if it was still in print, and she said it was and did I want the supplies for it too, so of course I said yes. See above about how I really should check for duplicate floss first, though.
