Crazy Dreams, Birthday Dinner, Aaah Science

I could almost swear I heard ma’s voice last night. I was dreaming that I was sleeping on my sofa very late at night, as I was doing precisely at that moment. I realized it was a dream when I realized what she had said; she told our dog to “get off of that!” She passed away in 2005 and I haven’t had a dog for years. I mentioned this at dinner and Bob said that maybe it was real because they are in the same spot!

Had a delicious dinner of chili, onion peels, chicken wings, cheese quesadillas, and potato skins at Taylor Golf Club's Lake House Grill with Bob, Liz, and AJ, in honor of Aunt Jeannie’s 77th, eh, “29 once again!” birthday.

Watching scientists, and their “Oh My Gosh, Dig This!” expressions, explain theories on Science Channel’s “100 Greatest Discoveries”. The many branches of science leads me to a deeper faith in God than religion does.

Speaking of God, I had the unfortunate realization tonight that I never pray harder than when I am in physical pain. Tonight's intestinal pains proved that to me. After a two-hour attack, nestling in my favorite chair and cozying up with Smokie helped me feel much better.
