There were very odd dreams last night. I was in some sort of suv with ben affleck and we were on our way to a wedding. We stopped at the hotel and he needed something to eat, but it had to be succotash. I've no idea either in real life or in dreams what it is supposed to be. Ben explained it to me: it required 1 can tomato soup, 1 can corn, and one package of refrigerator biscuits all run through a food processor, simmered for 45 minutes on medium heat, then it was to sit for thirty minutes and had to be served with really long skinny toast from a baguette. I was rummaging through the hotel pantry and couldn't find tomato soup and tried to improvise, all the while his mother was there bitching at me. I spilled tomato glop all over the place but ben had to eat so I just scraped it back off the burner and back into the bowl.

I also woke with the idea that I would find my photoshop discs. I remembered that Bruce borrowed and did not return them. I spent the morning in his home office and did indeed find them in a very difficult to find place. Bruce had previously attempted an upgrade to a newer version of photoshop which is apparently incompatable to my copy which complicates matters. I finally just installed my version which seems to work fine. The problem is that his upgrade included acrobat professional. Well, as I do not have an official copy of anything 'professional' grade by adobe, I can't open pdf's at all. Oh, and now itunes wants to format my ipod to run on windoze. I think it's confused, but 'format' and 'ipod' sends some sort of panicy reaction through me so that is not going to happen. So the plan for that is to turn off the damn thing again and extract my ipod while it's powered down and see if that works. The ipod could be fried, the computer could be fried (again), I just don't want to go through the reloading of all my music again unless absolutely necessary.

What is this deep seated need to please Ben Affleck!?

Well, as I do not have an official copy of anything 'professional' grade by adobe,

Huh, you know, I don't think that I know anyone who actually does. Where is this tiny group of people who provide the rest of us w/ Adobe software? :P

I found it doubly ironic as I don't particularly like Ben. I didn't really like him in the dream - maybe I was one of those celebrity gofers. I do have vivid memories of the mixture which was seriously odd.

Yes, now I have my official 'educational' version of photoshop so I'll likely have to remove anything with 'professional' on it so something will work.

**sigh**

I'm installing The Witcher right now. Fingers are crossed that my system and it will work together. Looks seriously cool though.

Okay, that is a bizarre dream, but I dreamed that I went back in time to 1969 and told Peter Tork, of The Monkees, that I had a huge crush on him when I was about 4 years old, and he was so touched that he tongue kissed me. Yeah, I made out with Peter Tork in my dream. And I had all these 45rpm records, and some were by this group called Green, who happened to be playing there, back in my 1969 time travel location, so I was trying to get them together so they could all sign them.

For the record, I don't think Ben explained succotash adequately.
