Contetxtual Nightmares

I don't know about others, but my experience with nightmares and dreams in general is that unless they're strong enough to wake me up I usually don't remember them. Last night I was having a rough time dealing with D.O.M.S. (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness, means I worked out. yay for me) and had gotten my score back from my latest math test, and just barely finished some homework in time for personal finance today. After about an hour of rest I woke up in a puddle of sweat on my pillow cursing that if I didn't figure out this equation by morning I would lose $8,000.00 on my investment. That was the nightmare.
      Thankfully after about 5 minutes of me struggling with whether or not to write out the problem on the bedroom wall, I realized what was happening, got up and found some Advil and was soon able to return to sleep and have a regular old nightmare about my new film teacher giving the class a lesson on the horror genre by taking us to a cabin in the woods and killing us one by one using different means. Before I woke up I remember asking him as he was about to hammer a nail into a lady's head, "what are you doing?" and his response was "This is an object lesson. Like if I was going to teach you how to play darts... except I'm throwing them at you."
     I tried to cut off his arms with an ax meant for me... it wasn't as easy as that cow in mexico.

Moving to Google+ feels like moving to Europe

I joined Google + as soon as it opened up to the public. I had seen videos and read a few articles about it and I remember thinking that it sounded like a much better version of Facebook, which in turn had been considered a much better version of MySpace. I liked the simplicity of choosing who you share with, among other features, and though I realize that Facebook utilizes a lot of the same features now; it seems like Google has made those features easier to find and more attractive. I assumed that most of my friends who were just as interested in switching from an iphone to android would feel the same way about switching over from Facebook to G+. But of the 70+ friends and family that I had listed on my old facebook page only half of them have joined Google +.  thankfully I've been able to participate in discussions with new and interesting people that are for the most part polite and well spoken. Thus the moving to Europe analogy; I'm excited to be a part of this new community that has been very friendly and welcoming, and the features of my new home are intuitive and exciting and much better looking than where I came from. I just kinda miss my family that refuses to switch over due to fear of change or laziness. (it doesn't cost nearly as much to switch from FB to G+ as it does to move from America to Europe obviously.)
