Sleepy. So begins another work week. *sigh*
Dad sent me a bunch of aviation jokes. Why? At least he's got the sense to refrain from sending me the overly glurgy patriotic crap that I know he gets. He used to be quite the iconoclast; now sadly calcified in his old age into Republicanism.
But here was one of the more amusing aviation jokes, it seems sort of Zen in a way:
Basic Flying Rules:
1. Try to stay in the middle of the air.
2. Do not go near the edges of it.
3. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and outer space. It is much more difficult to fly there.
Weird dreams last night of being back in school, and being in the lower class in a setting that resembled 'Gattica' and feeling hopeless because I'd had a crush on a guy in the upper class, and knew it was doomed. But I was still able to crack jokes about it, somehow. And I had a bicycle stolen, but then realized that I recognized the guy I saw ride off on it as the guy that I had initially stolen it from, so it was okay.
