When my real-life and dream-life calendars are on different days

Ever wake up and wonder, "What day is this?" I've probably done this too many times to count (not literally of course), but these occasions have especially been prevalent over the course of the past week. I'd say between three and four times over this past week I've dreamt of the following day, only to awaken and realize that day hasn't fully come about yet and my real-life calendar is one day behind my dream-life calendar. This is cause for great confusion initially when awaking in a semi-hypnotic state. One isn't thinking too clearly at that moment, their possibly vivid dreams are likely still at the forefront of their thoughts, and it may take a few minutes to finally place those before-mentioned thoughts to the side and realize what day it is and what's on the agenda for that day.

This was especially the case for me a week ago yesterday. When I fell asleep that Saturday night, I dreamt about awaking on Sunday, before taking a nap in the afternoon and waking up at 6:30 pm. I was supposed to drive out to see my girlfriend that afternoon, so when I awoke at 6:30, I initially freaked out and took a shower, before realizing it was only 6:30 in the morning. I tried getting back to sleep, but couldn't, so I wound up eating breakfast and driving out to my girlfriend's quite early, probably for fear that the dream would come true in a way and I'd end up missing an opportunity to see my girlfriend over the weekend.

This very thing has happened to me two to three other times this past week, and I'm sincerely hoping that my real-life and dream-life calendars start matching one another's before their one-day separation drives me completely insane (yes, I'm already at partially insane)!

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Trump's Lie Tally at the CNN Debate

1) "We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We had never done so well. Every – everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us." 2) "But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess." 3) "The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounceback jobs; they’re bounced back from the COVID." 4) "Not going to drive them higher. It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
