Back In The Day

I think I am at the point where I am old enough now to say "back in the day." Anyway here I am about to pass out and I am feeling curiously nostalgic. About Video Games, as opposed to ranking the various games I've played over the years. Since I've been told I do not play enough video games to be able to judge. I will list them by the decade played followed by a small description of why this game is memorable to me. 1990s - Super Mario Brothers for the Nintendo Entertainment System - This a no brainer everyone who bought a nintendo played Mario. I remember being in an apartment in Arizona playing this daily. I remember it was my little brother's turn and in order to get more time on the game. I sang a lullaby to get him to sleep and lose his turn. It worked and I eventually beat Mario by singing my brother to sleep whenever he wanted to play. Zelda - This game was difficult for me I couldn't figure out where to go, how to get to Ganon and at some poi...

Where have my dreams gone?

When sleeping it is common for me to spend a lot of time dreaming but lately there is nothing. When I wake up its as if I left off exactly from the point I went to sleep. This may be in part because of the medication I'm on or perhaps it is a sign I've been spending more time in reality then I'd like to be as well. After all reality is so mundane, nothing seems to change all that much. Whatever emotions I experience in any dream seem all the more intense then in a waking state. What bothers me is that some of these dreams in the past have served as a guide and without a guide I feel somewhat lost. I wonder if it has anything to do with the season.

It has been sometime since I have written anything at all here.  From the Babylon 5 Wikipedia " For [Centauri] the nobility, marriage ceremonies themselves are considered solemn, sober occasions filled with moments of reflection, regret, disagreement, argument and mutual recrimination. The thinking being that once you know that it cannot get any worse one can relax and "enjoy" the marriage. To celebrate a union with joy and exuberance is considered to be a very bad sign for the future. By contrast; state funerals are generally considered to be positively festive. [20] " Though it may seem archaic to us Americans. The Centauri way always seems to make more sense then how it is in our society. After all if my wife and I had discussed our disagreements before we were to be married then I am sure it would have been happier for both of us.  Right now things are not good. My wife is carrying this house on her back and she blames me completely for quitting my job last ...
