Matt adopted a dog, a golden retriever. We were also set to board a cruise, and somehow the cruise allowed dogs. But the dogs had to be checked a little like luggage which meant you had to leave the dog with a bunch of other dogs and hope they got it on board.

Problem was they didn’t, not for a long while. I sat outside boarding refusing to go in until the dog was on board. But after too much time I decided I would have to get on board.

Matthew was going to this church. It was near our nyc house, walking distance. I started to go and must’ve gone a few times given some of the papers that I had. Something about the pastor I did not like. We were talking about eating people, and for whatever reason they were trying to persuade me it was ok. I finally wore down and said fine in emergency situations but not outside that. But they seemed to include eating people in their religion.

At anias or some place similar. Lisa and I are watching a video my brother is streaming from a baseball game in town on my phone. It’s probably new york, hes probably in Queens at a mets game and we’re in harlem. I think we’re in the dining room, looking towards the living room.

Lisa asks how I know the games going well, and I explain how I know. Maybe I elaborate on how a pitcher striking everyone out is okay but it leaves nothing for everyone else to do and maybe it would be good to spread the effort around the team so the pitcher isnt the only one tired. But what do I know I dont really care for sports.

An entity wants to kill people by tricking them. They can get out if they’re perceptive, but mainly it is kill it before it kills you.

Mark is flying in to meet me and some friends. Maybe work friends, ruth is there. Maybe this is a team building opportunity.

On a roof, matthew is locked in with a climbing hook, I’m holding onto him until I can get up. It looks like a supermarket shelf. Someone comes by and antagonizes me, turns out it was the monster in disguise. I was tricked and had to be saved.

In china or something. Mustve bought an old palace. Everything, even the stairs leading to the plaza were hewn by hand. Trying to grow things but it all turns out as weeds like my backyard. I would like to raise cattle and goats and chickens.

Some girl picked plants and I sit down to review and identify them.

Much later I invite my family over. Unsure what to make given no crops and very anxious. Moms not helping. Matt is not helping. I get upset and break my nebraska beer mug from undergrad to threaten my brother with. I dont think I actually have it any longer in real life but I was so dismayed at having broken it. I show the pieces to robert.

In britain, perhaps working, pgr must have moved. Had a team meeting previously, sobum was managing us now and mentioned that this had been a hard difficult year. I recall feeling good connecting and chatting with him. We were doing some weird team building exercise that involved some mimeing; I remember being prompted to act like i was sprinkling something in my eyes.

We watched a movie with Megans group. We were at anias apartment in nyc though. A slight shift in setting, the movie came alive and the actors were performing amidst the doors and halls of my grandmothers apartment. One was from downton abbey who played the head butler. The other I dont know. I asked someone else watching if they were in show business because they were very good. They mentioned the man was, and I felt dumb for asking, of course, I must have forgotten after a nap.

I’m resting. Looks like a parking lot or something. Shujie walks by; shes returned to progressive but now shes some chief financial officer type. Shes leading a cadre of workers talking some business stuff about the company.

On a flight. Ask flight attendant if we’re able to pick up radio transmission from jets behind us. Alex shakes his head no — I suppose thats not how light works here. The attendant wants to know the time, and she says “oh thanks, Mickey” to her Disney themed watch.

Having an event at a big fancy hotel, it’s our birthday and another’s (maybe a cousin). I find some sort of neat peanut beer and id like to enjoy it. We sit and talk about getting speakers to play music, they seem to have space. Not sure if we’re in someones house right now.

Someones asking about taxes. Matthew apparently has begun to be a tax professional because hes answering questions with lisa. Someone says, well you really ought to be hiding money and skirting the law because then the organizations trust you with more money, right? I’m sure lisa disagreed.

My brother Matt was trying to kill me with Raid roach spray. He would chase me spraying it in my face. Andrew was trying to help me fight him off. Matt would spray Raid into the food I was eating.

We’re in CA with Andrew. We are playing a milsim, and Andrew’s leading us to some objective.

Playing scrabble with my family. Matthew puts “gleoc” down and I’m like, “what, the beast from Zelda?” He’s like yeah, and I storm off, throwing a piece across the parking lot(?), muttering that fine I’ll start playing animal noises next. It wasn’t even spelled right, it’s gleeok. I try to find the piece but I cannot, I only find matchbooks on the floor. I figure the item might have gotten smushed by now. Someone else’s mom is screaming at her kids while they get into their car.
