The spectrum always seems to shift back to the left. What a terrible stroke of bad luck, and things were just starting to go right.

Do you dream? I dream all night, every night, and always wake up exhausted. I go through phases. Sometimes (like here lately) I need like 10 hours of sleep a night.... then I'll go months where I only sleep like 3 hours or so.... literally staying up all night for no reason.

Off topic, I LOVE your page header.

Constantly dreaming, rarely remembering it. I like waking up and having that instant memory failure, but still remembering incredibly vague aspects of what was just experienced. It's been a while since I've had the rare dream that I remember, and even then it's kind of hazy. I remember Richard Feynman experimenting with lucid dreaming as a ways of seeing what dreams are really like, and he came to some interesting conclusions. The most interesting one to me was the idea of sight. He could recall seeing people, and could apply colors to them as well, but none of it was the same thing as sight. It was more like an idea of that person, or that color that was so clear that he could know everything about them that sight would reveal without ever having to use his most important sense at all. It was in his autobiography, if you're interested.

I have a different kind of tired. I never really notice anymore when I'm physically drained unless it's the point where I can't even function, but mine is more a combination of mentally tired and bored. Hopefully upcoming events will liven things up, as I imagine they will. Either way, I'll still probably keep staying up until the sun starts to rise. Once I get a job this will probably change, which I need to since my reserves of gas money are running low. Tomorrow will be another day of job searching, I imagine.

And the header is "Bob". The only religion that has ever appealed to me.

Things may get better when you work. Over the summer, I'll stay up all night for no aparent reason, but during the school year I'm drained from chasing those kids, so I sleep more. Where will you be working at?

I'd love to read the book about lucid dreaming. I'll have to go find it. One thing sorta on topic with that, is that I always dream in color. And alot of people do not. It is interesting, the science of sleep.

Also, the religion of Bob FTW.

My job is inevitably going to be somewhere crummy, working in retail. Unless there's some sudden stroke of luck, I'll be stuck with a minimum wage job, I'm just trying to find one that's tolerable.

Feynman's book doesn't really go into too much depth on lucid dreaming, and it's mainly just about his growing up and involvement with physics. He did a lot of stuff with safe cracking and laboratory design as well, and overall it's just an interesting book to read. I dream in color as well, but it's still that fake color that he talks about. Your brain thinking it's color when it really isn't.

And the idea that there are other SubGeniuses on Newgrounds is terrifying. it just doesn't seem to fit.

I remember talking to Life about the emoticon ^^_^. A Japanese emoticon that was mutated from the radioactive aftermath of Hiroshima, but still finds a way to smile. I thought it was inspirational.

Continue smiling with your carat eyes. Leave the underscore mouth completely emotionless, the eyes are the gateway to the soul.

I agree with the hippie ideas you have, I mean I hate myself for not getting to have experienced what was woodstock. I mean sure they have tributes to it every know and then, but in 1969, it was on crazy time. But the culture is unusal with hippies, it interests me how so many people could think that anarchy was good, the government is bad, and not much behind it. But then agian, that is a total stereotype, but you understand where I am going right?

I try and reenact it in the modern day. I look at the culture more as a glimpse of what could had been had the politicians not been so keen to kill it off. Psychedelics easy to obtain without fear of the law, music that doesn't suck, a country run by something other than the usual diet of fear and militarism. Impractical given human nature, but at least it might have been possible.

Im not reading all of that... Im much to lazy...

LOL, BANNED.
