Writing early today. I probably ought to get some coffee, but I’m not quite ready yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I did fall asleep at a rather-reasonable time last night. There wasn’t really anything going on with my normal Friday night get-togethers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I woke up after about 90 minutes of sleep because I had a weird fucking dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Society where you have to live within certain regulations regarding efficacy for homes and cars. People in about the lower four-fifths of the income scale couldn’t possibly meet the regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People in the top caste(s) could sell their stuff down to lower tiers, but by the time things filtered down, they were basically unusable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m not going to go on my full-spiel about it, but this is really the sort of thing that’s going on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You pollute by keeping your old shit. You can’t afford the new, approved shit. That makes you a bad person<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only the people in the upper levels are good people, and that gives them authority to do pretty much whatever they want to people below them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So on to prompt….<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you could grant your wife 3 wishes what would they be? (T2K)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. A house near where she’d like to live.<\/li>
  2. Enough money so that she doesn’t have to work anymore.<\/li>
  3. A vacation with nothing to do.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    So that’s a few things. We’ve been just going seemingly non-stop for just short of a decade now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I have to be careful, however, because I worry that the last one is really more what I might want. *shrug*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
