I was on bike ride on the east side of Madison. I had been up by
Tenney park but now was biking south along some creek (but it seemed
farther east than the Yahara river, maybe across 51). I ended up at a
cross between a highschool award ceremony and a Schweser meeting.
There was some terrible video of me looking awkward for 3 seconds
being shown. It seemed everyone was getting some kind of award.
Stephen Mayer or Kelly seemed to be in charge of the whole thing. My
prize was a 834MB SD card. Is that a lot or is that smaller than the
cards I have? I tried to think. Oh, but I think this card is
special? Like an Eye-Fi. It beeps from inside my camera. And
actually it's 8GB, which is pretty dece, size-wise. Yeah, good
prize.</p>
<p>I went to some German restaurant with A-Day and his mom. I left my
bike parked in the back of their pickup truck. When we came out it
was gone! Well most of it was gone. Someone had stolen everything
except for the frame. And the tires (though they had taken the
wheels).</p>
<p>This morning I dreamt that I was flying around in a simulation of
the solar system. It let me fly all fast if I wanted, just by
thinking about it the right way. The maximum flying speed was 1 AU
per second. I went to visit Mars.</p>
<p>Got my plane, coffee maker, and food processor. Need to fix a
headlight in my car.</p>
<p>There was a dream I had a few weeks ago that I thought I'd written
down but am not finding a record of, now. I was down at the Nakoma
Plaza strip mall, but it was as if I had travelled back in time, and
then into some parallel universe where technology from the 1930s stuck
around forever. The parking lot was a railroad yard, and there was a
blimp parked on the south end, being loaded by trains. Everything was
made out of steel. It was all very impressive. And very gray.</p>
