Saturday

I'm the kind of girl that, instead of spending Saturday night out, spends it making a board game with her brother because he's in the "board games are the best" kind of mindset. I guess that either makes me a girl who wants the carefree days again or a sister. Oh, doesn't it feel so darn good to spend some time with a younger person in the family.

I smell like chlorine.

Last night I listened to a podcast on lucid dreaming. I had really weird dreams, though none necessarily where I was in control. Learned about Aristotle and van Eeden. Tibetan monks.

And Tibet and China and the bordering region consisting of Muslim populations. Also, Sotamayo and the Democrats. Ayatollah Khameini, I thought they were saying "harmony." And I got confused, until I realized they mentioned something about Iran's supreme leader. Then, I thought, oh. The five European countries and the pipeline accord. Kremlin is Russia. Control of oil in the East and indications of insecurity. Robert Mugabe and Morgan Tsvangirai. Those names are hard to spell. I though they were spelled differently until I searched online to clarify who they were. Zimbabwe. Average lifespan of a man in Zimbabwe is mid-thirites? And the unrest in Xinjang (I think that's the name). I don't understand, though, why they're allowing foreign people to report on the incidents in the area, when they've cut off the local region's internet access? Fear of native populations.. organizing something anti-government? Hm.
