Pete's Log: Valdemar commands it

Entry #1172, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 23 years old.)

It's cold tonight. Cold and slippery.

I wonder if I lost a tooth without realizing it. The toothfairy appears to have visited me. I found $300 under my pillow. Must've been quite a tooth.

I might have made it. I might have been asleep by 4:30 ... but I was in bed, mind in overdrive, but determined to stay in bed, even if I wasn't going to fall asleep anytime soon. But sometime between 4 and 4:30 somebody knocked on the apartment door, so I got up to see who it was, but whoever it was didn't wait around long enough...

So I decided it was time to give into food cravings and hit Meijer. A couple unfrosted poptarts (the type without bones in them) and a couple soy burgers later, I feel content.

On my way to Meijer I discovered a great sense of liberation when I ran (in a responsible manner) a silly red light. I'm fighting the power in my own ridiculous little way.

During another stage of the drive I had a thought I wanted to record. I was almost to Meijer, but wasn't sure the thought would last long enough without some help. So I decided I'd put the pen I keep in my car in my mouth, so I'd remember to write it down. Well, it happens I was singing along to MxPx as I was driving, but the part of me that wanted the pen in my mouth figured I could stand to give up on singing for a little while. Once I had the pen in my mouth, though, I discovered that the singing part of me had no intention to be quieted, and I found myself, to my surprise, trying to sing with a pen between my teeth.

It's getting foggy out ...
