Riddle Sideways: Godd Morning Adams ㋡
Adams Rubble: Good morning Riddle :)
Riddle Sideways: it is like Olde Times
Riddle Sideways: back at the park bench
Adams Rubble: a little

Adams Rubble: how is the heat there?
   --BELL--
Riddle Sideways: not so bad here. It is the usually cold North that is heated up
Adams Rubble: ohhh
Adams Rubble: weird
Riddle Sideways: we are warmer, but high 70s
Riddle Sideways: forecasted for 80s
Riddle Sideways: Washington and Oregon are getting it
Adams Rubble: we are mid 90s
Riddle Sideways: still, am spending afternoon inside

Riddle Sideways: you have hot back there too?
Adams Rubble: yes it got hot again
Adams Rubble: not cooling on the evenings
Riddle Sideways: and you get the humidity
Adams Rubble: yes
Adams Rubble: a fine kettle of soup
Riddle Sideways: hmmm, would not think it was good weather for soup
Adams Rubble: the weather is the soup

Riddle Sideways: anyway. read your 3-4 blog entries all in the same hour and they all ran together
Riddle Sideways: many about dreaming
Adams Rubble: reported about dreaming
Riddle Sideways: funny thing was that had a (need to look up the word/phrase) sort of Deja Vu type moments the last few days

Adams Rubble: I haven't hardly been out in over a month so i am a little detached from the blog
Adams Rubble: I have had some opinions but I was not considered
Adams Rubble: that may make sense to you :)
Adams Rubble: not to many others
Riddle Sideways: right. at least think so
Adams Rubble: I was changed and then put in the closet
Riddle Sideways: is a nice look
Riddle Sideways: not sure why you were put away
Riddle Sideways: could be just a phase
Riddle Sideways: can you say more of what it might mean?
Adams Rubble: It wasn't my choice. it was my RL avatar
Adams Rubble: I am having a coming out experience
Adams Rubble: sigh
Adams Rubble: please bear with me
Riddle Sideways: ok

Adams Rubble: did you ever read "Pilgrim's Progress"?
   --BELL--
Riddle Sideways: think that never read it, but did a book report anyway
Adams Rubble: :)))
Riddle Sideways: long ago
Adams Rubble: when i was young we were allowed to go to the back of the room and read if we finished our work early
Adams Rubble: I picked up the book and looked through it thinking it was about Thanksgovibng Pilgrims
Riddle Sideways: ㋡
Adams Rubble: The teacher saw me loooking at the book and made a big announcement praising me for being the first person ever to read the book
Adams Rubble: but I never read it
Adams Rubble: well, i am reading it now on my new kindle
Adams Rubble: not recommending it but it is interesting
Adams Rubble: lots of dangerous side paths and dangerous things on journey to heaven
Riddle Sideways: maye like Dante's Inferno had lots of dangerous side paths
Adams Rubble: maybe I should reread that

Riddle Sideways: you read sooooo much
Riddle Sideways: no wonder you don't get out much
Adams Rubble: ohhhh
Riddle Sideways: went to bed so late last night that did not read anything
Adams Rubble: I have been wondering if I should change my reading time to do that
Riddle Sideways: but possibly the mind and dreams told what they thought up was in the next chapter in current book
Riddle Sideways: to when?
Adams Rubble: anytime other than the hour before bedtime
   --BELL--
Riddle Sideways: not sure. there are different reading times for different (results/effects/studies/learning/enjoyments pick any words)
Riddle Sideways: rather like falling asleep with a fiction story
Riddle Sideways: a mind continues the story often in different ways
Riddle Sideways: like dreaming, yet different
Adams Rubble: hmmm. Pilgrim's Progress is the first fiction I have read for a while
Riddle Sideways: seem to always have a fiction on the bed stand, but not for during the day

Adams Rubble: Interesting. I am always reading things like how to shed one's self and get enlightened before 3 AM
Adams Rubble: just kidding
Adams Rubble: I would expect to wait until at least 5 am
Riddle Sideways: noting that book shelf does not have a copy of "Enlightment for Dummies"
Riddle Sideways: nor "Enlightenment by 3am"
Riddle Sideways: "7 days to Enlightment"
Riddle Sideways: "16 easy recipes to cook while waiting for Enlightment"
Adams Rubble: hehe
Riddle Sideways: so many titles
Adams Rubble: yes
Riddle Sideways: and have none of those on shelf

Riddle Sideways: hmmm, bet the thing is not to just have them on the shelf
Riddle Sideways: probably need to read one of them

Adams Rubble: The hills are alive with the sound of enlightenments
Riddle Sideways: hums along
Riddle Sideways: singing along with the sound of one hand clapping
Adams Rubble: :)
Riddle Sideways: all those helpful self-help books to enlightenment
Adams Rubble: lots of long Sanskrit words to help one along
Riddle Sideways: it is so easy!! just read and follow these 1,234 pages of
   --BELL--
Riddle Sideways: go ahead kids, try this at home

Riddle Sideways: back to the strange dream stuff.
Adams Rubble: back from silly practice
Riddle Sideways: in which in the middle of the day would recall parts of dreams that
Riddle Sideways: feel like Deja Vu moments
Riddle Sideways: but would be 'this was in last nights dream'
Adams Rubble: I don't know if I had this happen but it sounds like Lucid Dreaming
Riddle Sideways: not sure how to ask the search engine for the word-phrase
Riddle Sideways: the reverse of Lucid dreaming?
Riddle Sideways: while doing something and be plop into an old dream section
Adams Rubble: sounds important
Riddle Sideways: turning a corner of the backyard and be reminded of previous turning of corners
Riddle Sideways: yes! it has been weighing like it is important
Riddle Sideways: reminded of not-awake corners that were turned tho
Riddle Sideways: dream journal would have "none recalled" written in that morning
Riddle Sideways: then at 3pm the memory of turning a corner would plop into memory-recall
Adams Rubble: :)
Adams Rubble: a gift
Riddle Sideways: and recalling that dream of turning the corner and bumping into a long ago school friend
Riddle Sideways: as a gift recall
Adams Rubble: :)
Riddle Sideways: liking how you spin things back to just right

Riddle Sideways: also liking that we sat farthest away from the rabbit, but had changed cam angle so that rabbit in was the view ㋡
   --BELL--
Riddle Sideways: thinking to take many already read books off the shelf so there is more room for the fictional enlightenment books
Adams Rubble: :)
Adams Rubble: It is important to remove books every once in a while to remove clutter
Riddle Sideways: yes
Riddle Sideways: should do that.
Adams Rubble: me too
Adams Rubble: :)
Riddle Sideways: however, clutter has its own ...

Adams Rubble: I must go and get ready to go to little ones

Adams Rubble: do take care
Riddle Sideways: thank you for the presents
