"I was trying to leave for vacation and there were so many tasks I had to do before I can leave I was very frustrated I finally left and got to where I was going it was a long drive and the water looked beautiful there is a really nice place to fish and I turned and looked and instead of having my kayak on a trailer I had an inner tube that I never put on a trailer and it was completely flat so that was disappointing and apparently I never planned a place to stay but there was a home up there and I just walked in and looked at it and I thought oh this is nice and the people came over that lived next door and said oh that's our home will let you stay there that's nice you can stay here we'll change the sheets on the bed they were very nice and the waves were high enough that I couldn't have used my kayak anyway but there was a really nice Peninsula to fish from and I was pretty sure I had brought my fishing gear even though I didn't go look in my car for it I remember feeling a little anxious like wow what if my fishing stuff's not in my car either"

"Last night I had a dream after a very long time without dreaming. In the dream, I was living together with Ogura Yui (japanese idol). We were going to make hotdogs... exactly 700 of them! I remember feeling so happy that she was giving me a chance, even though I was a bit nervous since it was her house. Everything felt warm and peaceful, but it all went by so fast. I didn’t even get the chance to hug her before I woke up. It was such a simple dream, but it made my whole day brighter. I hadn’t felt that kind of happiness in a long time."
