Someone out there is messing with me.
At work, I have 3 clocks I can easily see: one on my phone, one on my computer, and one on my cell phone.
Right now, only two of them are in agreement on what time it is. My two phones say it's 8:00 AM. My computer is convinced it's 8:05 AM. This shouldn't bother me. But it does. Especially because last week, my computer and my work phone were both slower than my cell phone.
I don't like not knowing what time it actually is. For now, I'm going to assume that my computer is jumping the gun. It'll probably get tired and slow down while I'm on vacation next week. I'm pretty sure my cell phone knows where it's at. I think it gets its time from some sort of satellite thingy.

Two dreams
Last night I had two dreams that I remember rather vividly.
1. I was in a relatively small building. I was living there, but there weren't any bedrooms. It was more like an office. I was in the basement (one of those partially-underground basements - "garden level" if you prefer). I looked out the window, and saw a tornado outside, and it was headed in my direction. I went out into the hallway and knocked on doors. The only person I recognized from real life was one of my coworkers. She said she knew there was a tornado, and told everyone to stay in the hallway because it was safest. I kept looking out the window - I could see it from the hallway - and the tornado was edging closer and closer. It seemed like a sure thing that it would hit us directly, so I decided that there were a few things I needed to gather from my "important things" drawer so that they didn't disappear when the building was destroyed. The only two things I was planning on getting were my passport and the envelope containing the cash I withdrew for when I eventually buy a car. My passport was right where it should be, but the cash envelope was gone. I tore the room apart looking for the envelope. The tornado got closer. I started tearing through other rooms. When I get to the room that belonged to my coworker, I found the envelope inside a long metal cylinder. I unrolled the envelope, and was ready to confront my coworker, but the tornado was extremely close. Everyone was scared. Then the tornado turned, and only clipped the corner of the building. It left no damage.
2. In the other dream, I was in a greenhouse/conservatory type of place with lots of exotic plants inside. There was a pond in the middle, and a rectangular path around the pond. I was there with a friend (unidentified), and we were sitting on a ledge that surrounded the pond. A very strange-looking creature came up to us and nuzzled me. It was a very friendly animal (and kind of looked like a muppet). Later, my friend and I donned some cross-country skis (because suddenly there was snow on the path, even though it was warm in the room). Other people joined us, and we knew them both. One was tagged as the "hot girl who all the guys fell in love with," and the other was named Sam, "the cute girl that everyone loves (platonically)". We skied around the path for a long time. Finally, I looked at Sam and told her that she had a red spot on her shirt. It looked like someone was aiming a laser pointer at her. Suddenly, everyone freaked out and started skiing faster - because it wasn't just a laser pointer, it was the laser sight from a gun. We were skiing for our lives. But then Sam was hit. she collapsed and fell backwards, her skis coming off in the process. There was a spot in the middle of her abdomen (where her shirt had come up) that was a large red circle. She stopped breathing, and I woke up.

Hijacked!
Last night, I had a dream where someone hijacked my blog and made it their own - I was surprised when I logged in and saw there were 99 comments on one post. Needless to say, when I got to work this morning, I learned that nothing of the sort had happened. My blog is still mine, and there are still zero comments on it.

It is Monday
Today is Monday, and it feels like one. I kept waking in the middle of the night because of stomach problems. What a cheery start to the week.
Had a dream last night, though. A kind of odd one. I was in a wedding, but for the reception (which was inexplicably before the wedding ceremony) I had to be a groomsman, not a bridesmaid. I wore a tuxedo and everything. But then it was time for the ceremony, and I had to put on a dress - white with bright pink flowers. I was freaking out because I was having... issues (of the feminine variety), and really didn't want to wear something white. My uncle Bruce was there - he was an actual groomsman, for both the ceremony and the reception, but he wouldn't drive me from the one location to the other. I had to ask someone I didn't know to drive me. I don't even remember whose wedding it was.

Introduction
Writing on electronic pages
The perception of time and interpretation of dreams
Thoughts on a cold winter's day
(Trust me, it's not as pretentious as it sounds)
At times it's low-brow, sometimes crass
Though I'm not sure why I'm apologizing -
Nobody's going to read this blog anyway.
