Strangeness in the Night

Last night I had a very strange dream. I apparently decided to visit a friend without really making any plans with her. Said friend lives a very long plane ride away. I showed up at her door and she was all cool about it, but as we were getting ready to go out and paint the town red, I realized what I was doing. While dreaming my thoughts were that this was not real and I'm dreaming because I would never do this to anyone. I even pinched myself in the dream. This confirmed I was dreaming because I felt no pain. After a bit more of the dream, I rolled over in bed and was exceedingly glad I had not just showed up at my friend's house. Really weird.

My next dream included my mother going crazy and my great-grandmother still alive with my living grandmother (her daughter) dead. It was all very strange.

As an aside, my great-grandma was awesome and absolutely adored the Twins. I always felt bad that she died in 2000 just before the Twins began to make their turn around. She suffered through the miserable teams in the nineties. She should have gotten to experience the joys of the Division Championships.

Beyond this I've got nothing. Although I did read an article speculating about a leveraged buyout of my company by KKR. KKR is like Richard Gere's company in Pretty Woman - buy a huge corporation and then sell the pieces for more than the whole. It will be interesting to see what happens.
