What’s the difference between stress, tension and panic?
Stress is when wife is pregnant,
Tension is when girlfriend is pregnant,
and Panic is when both are pregnant.

So… I wandered across the hall to bug Matt, I didn’t figure he’d have much going on seeing as how there’s not much going on. We’re talking and he says the funniest thing that I felt I had to include in my blog, however I can’t for the life of me remember. So, I IM him… he’s useless too.

I got some things repaired with our billing site. I’ll be happy when I have the information necessary to finish that little project, it’s just sitting there waiting.

Other than that… bored. I could think of a lot of things I’d rather be doing right now… two things mainly though…

 I think I’ve discovered a bug in the system with ordering and timestamping when dealing with multiple drafts in the queue. So, while I’m fixing it the site could be up and down periodically. Sorry if the orderings and timestamps are screwed in the meantime. 🙂

I think I’m also going to see if I can find a way to seperate the private sections from the general sections and somehow resolve the bug in the process… so frustrating, but at least it gives me something to focus on. 🙂

Aside from that… it’s a tired tired tired monday. It’s all good though. I hope everyone had a good weekend… Welcome to another one…

Interesting dream last night… It was one of those dreams that seem extremely real, extremely long as well…

Oddly I remember a lot of it.

Athe end of it, Andy (who was in the dream as well) and I had a very long conversation reflecting on our lives…
The final moments of that  conversation I remember the most about.

Part of the conversation between Andy and I:  

Andy, “I cannot comprehend. You were once one of the most favored knights and we stripped you of your title as if you were a commoner. Yet, when the time came, you still took up your sword in the name of King and Country. You stood by us all.”

“It’s all I knew to do. It is the purpose for my life. For this land and Her people, all I’ve known is love… and for that, I didn’t need a title to tell me that I was to do what I knew to be right.”

“But you risked your very being based on faith alone. Despite having reclaimed your honor and your title, was it worth the risk?”

“Aye, In my heart, I never lost my honor or my love and I’d do it again without hesitation.”

“And if you had perished?”

“I would have died knowing that it was not in vain. That I did what I had promised to do that day I knelt before Arthur and let him touch me with Excalibur. I would have retained my honor and love, even if it were only a quiet secret held in my heart.”

“I envy you… you never once lost your way.”

“Nay… In my heart… I was and forever will be, a knight of the round table.”

Evidently playing FFXI with Andy and Mike has had a strange impact on my dreams. heh

In the dream, Andy, who’s name was Artimus, was not only my best friend but was also the one who actually performed the ceremony that stripped me of my title when it was discovered that I was not of the bloodline I had claimed. Despite having done that, we had remained friends and this conversation took place while we were both recovering from wounds received in a battle which Camelot was almost lost.

It’s interesting… so many people I know were the faces of other characters in this dream. If you’re curious, ask. lol Really wierd stuff.
