Dreams of Vegas and babies

I had three distinct dreams this past week.

One dream that I had was I had a baby girl named Michelle.  I held her in my arms and everything.  I held her like I held a baby many, many times before.

Another dream that I had was that I was in Las Vegas.  In the dream I had a lucky wrapper of Mr. Goodbar while I was playing slots.  In the dream, I was winning money to the tune of $50.  After I pocketed my winnings, I was looking for a buffet where I could eat some prime rib and roast beef.

Last Night, I had a dream where I was in a real-life version of "Over the Edge."  I was in a prison-like atmosphere in 'New Granada' where I saw some of the movie's characters come to life.  I dreamed that I saw 'Carl Willet' and 'Richie White' in a hospital-prison-like atmosphere where the escape route led me to the front of a grocery store.

In reality, I have seen 'Over The Edge' many times on TV and YouTube.  I don't have any children.  Finally, I haven't been to Las Vegas in five years, and I hope to go back there again one day.

Dreaming of world peace

OK that would be a stretch.  Right now, I'm looking to settle for some kitty peace.  Over the past couple of nights, Gadget and Gandolf have been chasing each other more playfully.  Earlier tonight, I saw some of the fur fly in my house.  Gadget deserves better than this.  Gandolf is scaring me by scaring Gadget.

Gandolf is a sweet little cat, and he is everything I could hope for in being a lap cat.  I will do right by Gandolf in playing with him more, chasing him with a laser pointer, and making him leap for a feathery toy.

Here's one thing that I hope that the cats will love, a new kitty tree house.  I'm hoping that a kitty mansion will bring the two brother cats closer together.  Hopefully that will be the thing that stops them from 'fighting.'

I'm hoping for some 'treehouse diplomacy' in the coming days.

Gandolf is licking himself, but not his wounds.  Gandolf is the sweet little aggressor in the family.  He will now get to do some running and I'll sing to him too.  I'm going to sing to him the "Must Love Cats" theme song to him.

I want to play some guitar here at home, but that would scare Gadget.  I won't do anything intentional to make Gadget run and hide.  The only thing that I would do to make Gadget run (unintentional of course) is run the vacuum cleaner to sweep the floor.

Here's hoping that Gadget and Gandolf can all get along.  Here's to kitty cat peace.

I never dreamed of Alabama blowing out Michigan

Dreaming of working for CNN again

OK so the headline is misleading in my life.  In reality, I'm perfectly happy to be working for WGCL-TV and occasionally over at The Weather Channel here in Atlanta.

Let me share my dream with you all.  I had a dream that I was working with some of my former colleagues from CNN, including one of my bosses who hired me in feeds at CNN.

In my dream, the new CNN building was somewhere in Midtown Atlanta around Peachtree Street and 14th Street.  The newsroom and its computers were on the ground floor looking outside at Peachtree Street.  The Newsroom computers looked so new and the people that I was set to work with were so familiar to me.

In reality, I have worked for some of those people in my dream over at The Weather Channel.  I hope to get to see some of those people once again either at work or in social settings.
