Warmest winter in all the years records have been kept! And continuing! It was 81 here yesterday and seems to be headed that way again today. Some light rains in the forecast, which should moderate things a bit.

Dream last night about a conference of computing teachers. All us "old timers" were there. It was in a big hall that was filled to overflow. I parked the car (it was another person's rental that I was driving) on an upper level and walked down into the hordes of people. A presentation was about to start and I spied a dessert table where I grabbed some pie. While I was getting dessert, people were repositioning chairs and mine got shoved far to the side and rear. There were multiple screens, but where my seat ended up was near a screen that was not being projected. All of us in that area started to reposition seats so we could see. Somehow, I ended up going back to the rental car and driving it down the ramp and into the arena. Someone on a microphone made a sarcastic remark about me saving on parking fees. I went ahead and parked the car near the rear of the hall. I realized that when it came time to leave that I'd have to wait for the crowds to make their way back up the ramps. I was content to do that.

There was also another dream about me moving into a shared rental space. It was into place I was familiar with, with people that I knew. The place was near a downtown area, within walking distance, with many convenient places nearby.

Both dreams were detailed. They were the clearest dreams I've had in a while, and I can recall them fully. From the happy part of my brain!

Just got a notice for Jury Duty! Have to get an excuse--don't feel that I can sit and concentrate for the times required.

I watched a woman almost get hit today. She was crossing up at the corner where there's just a pedestrian crosswalk and lots of traffic. She stepped out with oncoming cars, I guess expecting them all to stop. One either didn't see her or the driver wasn't looking. The woman stepped out from one car and was missed by inches from being knocked into next week. I thought she'd bought it for sure, but her angels were with her today. I'm glad she made it across in one piece. It's a dangerous place to cross on foot--six lanes of traffic and no lights.

Waiting for the cool! Here's to the warmest winter! Symptoms a little more present last night and today. Time for another acupressure massage--coming soon--next Monday!
