This morning, I was working on my bike. I was traveling home from work, and to my dad's place outside Pittsburgh (!). I think it was an issue with my fuel line that had me stopping at a sort of roadside cafe. Since the bike was unreliable, I also suddenly had a car (!) that was parked next to it, and so then I got started on the logistics of moving both the bike and the car.
I went inside the cafe to wash up and get some food. That's when this girl came up to me and asked me if I sleep naked (!). Then two of her friends show up flanking her, and one of them repeats the question. The other one hands me a card and they tell me they're recruiters for a consulting company. Which, okay, whenever I get a job proposition out of the blue (via e-mail, not in-person), I immediately think: "SCAM." So I'm asking them questions. "Is it sales?" I asked them like three or four times. "Is it sales? because I hate sales, and I need a guaranteed base." Which is basically what I say in waking life as well. Finally, they admit that it is and I take their card and thank them for their time.
So I'm sitting there, planning my route to my dad's (remember I was going to my dad's?) and trying to figure out what I'm going to do with my car while I take my bike there. I had just resolved to move the car to an available parking spot facing the road so I could spot it easily on my way back when my phone rang. It was the girls from before (!), trying to get me in for an interview. I had to think about my community college course schedule (!) as far as availability. I figured it was the only way to get them off my back. Just then, a PSA came on the TVs above the counter at the cafe. It depicted guys getting into abusive relationships with overweight women. It was so simultaneously hilarious and offensive that I woke up.
So yeah, not really anything exciting, but I want to both get more into recalling my dreams and into writing, so I figured why not.
