I've been having rage dreams regularly. They're super vivid and I wake up not knowing whether they really happened for a second. Anyone else have these? I think I need a massage.
In my latest one, I blew up my coworker's house. I did go to jail at the end of the dream (but I had to be caught by SWAT first--take that, popo!), so at least there were consequences to keep me in check.
I have a rage dream every now and then but it's rare that I'm able to draw a straight line between the dream and something that happened IRL. I usually can pinpoint the cause of my anxiety dreams, though. I'm not sure why there is a difference and part of me wonders if I'm actually The Hulk and just have constant, latent rage.

I have hit my mid-winter malaise where I am dissatisfied with everything. This is generally when I'm like "I need a new job!" or "We need to travel!" or "I need to plan the garden!" or all of the above.
DH works for an insurance broker with multiple locations that is owned by a small, local bank. They refuse to set up direct deposit for anyone who does not have an account with this bank; they use a payroll company so it really isn't extra work or expense. Employer used to provide a courier service for employees getting manual checks every payday, but cancelled that about 8mos ago to send them regular mail. The mail has to come on time Fri nights or Saturday morn by 11:15ish for us to get it deposited on time. Well, last Friday was DH's expected payday; as of today we still haven't gotten his check (and he's not the only employee in this situation). So we're now setting up an account with the bank, just so it can show up on Thurs direct deposit, and we withdraw the entire thing in cash Thurs night to re-deposit in our real account.
I don't understand how it can be 2015 and an employer can dictate how you do your banking; I mean, isn't it cheaper and more efficient to set up direct deposit anyway?
(and no, I'm not really surprised in today's political/corporate world, but just very aggravated that we're stuck with this policy)
I keep having dreams about an ex-bf lately and it is kinda freaking me out because I've been known to talk in my sleep. I'm afraid one morning I'm gonna wake up divorced because of a dream!

Like that one song that was really popular for a while? It was a duet... I'm blanking. Anyway, the guy talks in his sleep and his SO flips her shit. Basically, she needs a lot of counseling about her insecurities, but ends up making him think it's all his fault. Stupid song.

Call donors for school fundraiser. Read 35 pgs for class tomorrow. Transfer condo utilities to my name. Schedule carpet installation for condo. Complete IN bar application Complete IL CLE requirements. Complete revision of history paper. Schedule furnace cleaning. Call PTS's heart surgeon.
What I'm doing:
Playing candy crush.
PS:
Send me lives.
Tell me that you just pay the $150 for the Chicago Bar Association's CLE Advantage package, so you can let the CLE seminars run in the background while you are doing other stuff and still get the CLE credit. It is the best system I have found for IL CLE.
Planning for my HS 20th reunion has begun. With a class FB chat. Kill me now.
Are you this summer? We are and I can't handle the FB page - plus it's run by people I can't even remember who they are, so that makes it even weirder when they have inside jokes I can't remember. Can I also mention that I was a Student Council nerd and president of our State Student Council Senior year so I'm surprised that I can't place these people at all - I mean, I'm pretty sure I talked to them to get their votes if they were running the school student council, right? I guess taking college classes my senior year means I really didn't care who was still at school when I was getting M/W/F to screw off b/c I only took T/Thu classes.

Yes! This summer. The good thing is that it's only ~25 of us. I went to school with most of them since preschool, so I'm not in danger of forgetting anyone.

Did you go to a one-room school K-12? That is tiny!

Ours is like 300 people, I think.
Basically. Small community in rural NE. We did have an actual school with divided classrooms. 2 classes per grade. Our graduating class was 31, 2 of them were foreign exchange students. I always wondered what they did to be sent to the buttcrack of nowhere.
I was asked to apply to sub at my kid's preschool. I decided it would be fun and turned in my paperwork two weeks ago. I have been called 6 times in a the past nine school days. I had no idea I would be needed this often, at least it is a fun and the hours work with my kids schedules.
