Beef, It's What's For... Lunch
I tried to wake up at 12:30 PM or so yesterday, but it didn't happen. I think I woke up an hour later. Some of the guys started filing in an hour later, and we started out with good ol' NBA Inside Drive. By 3:30 everyone who was supposed to be here was here, so we decided to start cooking the meat. We finally finished the hamburger meat and patties along with the hotdogs and buns that were from our bbq from last month. Whoo. Anyways the day was pretty good. Willy was maning his George Foreman grill that he had brought over. That thing is great, if I say so myself. You can actually see the fat that you're not eating. The fat drips down into a little collection plate at the end and it catches all of it. Great stuff. We played some Halo multi link on the Xbox, which basically got owned by Kevin, Will (two Halo players), and Nick. Jhermaine was sniping pretty well; darn I really wanted to get that guy a few more times =\. We played some more Inside Drive, Smash Brothers on the Cube, and Willy was War3'ing it up. Somewhere along the line I got kicked off my keyboard and from there havok broke loose. Crazy kids. Throughout the night people showed up and came and went. By the time everyone left it was around 11:00 PM. I managed to make myself some noodle and fry myself some rice for dinner. Now I think I wont be sleeping until 4:00 AM or something. That or I'll "food coma" and pass out. Earlier I was talking to Flora about dreaming, and this is what I learned:
""Women everywhere more commonly dream of children, while men more often dream of aggression, weapons, and tools." (97)
"For example, dream researcher Calvin Hall found that, in a sample of over 1800 dreams, women dreamed about both men and women, while men dreamed about men twice as often as about women." (97)
"Sleep research has also found that dream content frequently relates to recent experience. Typically, the first dream of the night connects with events of the previous day. Then, dreaming in the second REM period (90 minutes later) may build on a theme that emereged during the first REM period. And so it goes through the night - like the childhood game of whispering a message from person to person - the final dream that emerges may have only the remotest relationship to events of the previous day. Ironically, it is the final dream of the night that is most likely to be remembered." (97)
