Did the tour of the senior living complex this morning. Rooms are small but the rent is also small. I don't need or use all of the space I pay for now. I could make one of their studio apartments work. Each one has a kitchenette, shower, some closet/storage space, a dedicated parking spot (for $15/month), and a garden plot. There are dinner meals five days each week (for $150/month), a small exercise area, washer/dryers, a lending library, computers, WiFi, cable, paid utilities, and more. The place is well located and is walking distance to a shopping center, public library, a big park, and such.

I took an application form and will fill it out and turn it in. That will put me on a waiting list. Not clear how long it will take for me to work up the list, but I can get started and see what happens. The location puts me a bit closer to the PD clinic which is convenient. It's also quiet there compared to my current place and they have a bunch of optional activities for the people who live there. I'm definitely interested. I've discovered that there are tons of similar places--low cost, affordable living places for seniors like me.

I dreamed a multi-part dream last night about working with the toy team again. We were working with older, rejected concepts; reviewing them and changing them into new products. It was a busy dream--I was working with several different teams. It was lots of fun!

Watched a 1970s SciFi film--Colossus:The Forbin Project. It was a take on a rogue computer taking over the world--which it did. It was campy and rigid. The computer presaged the Hal computer character on 2001:Space Odyssey. There was a similarity in the way Colossus talked and reasoned that lived again in 2001.

Resistance class today! The person at the senior place, YS, who gave me the tour was an oddball, funny person. She kept cracking jokes that had us both laughing as we toured.
