CW dance class was fun this morning. Learned four dances and came away feeling good. Was a little fatigued since we've not had classes for a while, but did alright. Looking forward to more.

Had lunch with BH (soup, salad, calamari steak, juice and fruit)--delicious. We watched Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds. A film that was more like an animated comic book. Lots of action (violence, blood, battles) done in a tongue-in-cheek way. Brad Pitt was the least impressive, but the rest of the cast carried the day.

Had a dream last night that was slightly precognitive with respect to the movie. The first part of the dream dealt with the screening of a movie. It took place in a cinema that had similarities to the theater in the IB movie. The second part of the dream had me and two other men at a shooting range. We were shooting up the targets, outdoing each other with our accuracy and tight hits.

Got into a techno-puzzle tonight when I downloaded the latest AOL for my Mac. As usual, the update did not go all that smoothly. Took me a couple of hours to deduce how to update the new application with my old preferences and archived email. There's still a minor glitch that I spent a lot of time trying to sort out. I've got everything mostly in place though. Through some kind of osmosis process! I'm amazed I ever knew anything about technology given what I have to struggle with now. Dancing is more fun!

Reading a couple of short fiction books that are remarkable. One is by Barb Johnson--More of This World or Maybe Another--a collection of stories about some people in New Orleans. The other is a collection called Native Stories, written by Native American writers. The pieces in both these books are mesmerising. Wonderful tales!
