you've dreamed a thousand dreams / none seem to stick in your mind

i dreamed last night that i missed softball. we play softball on thursdays, i.e. tonight, so i didn't miss it. i have no idea why i had such a random yet ordinary dream.

last night debbie and i went to check out a house listed for rent on the swap shop. it was pretty nice. four bedrooms, nice sized living room, two car garage, fresh paint, big backyard. it's definitely a possibility, except it lacks the hardwood floors that nick wants/requires, so we shall see. on the way home, debbie and i got lost and ended up driving in from the far end of el dorado. as we passed some huge houses, we decided to double back and take a look. the neighborhood was bay oaks, which i'd never even heard of and didn't even know was there, but it was incredible. the houses back there are huge. out of curiosity, we picked up a few fliers from the homes that were for sale, including one advertising a virtual palace that's going for the bargain basement price of $2,400,000. i am very curious to know who has the money to live back there...

last night before i went to bed i had a brilliant idea. if it works, it will combine something that i really want to do (organize a race) with something that really needs to be done (fund an event). woohoo!
