  1. Unfavorite Dream

    Of the many, many recurring dreams I have, this is by far my unfavorite. It has a mirriad different forms but always there is one thing that is unchanging. The dream occurs on the day I (don't) graduate from High School. Last night I dreamed that I was getting ready to go out. I lived in a city style Brownstone and I was looking for clothes to put on. I suddenly realize that today is graduation. There are assignments pending, and all kind of things get in the way of me getting out...
  2. Own Worst Enemy

    I just got off of a call where the person was speaking at a speed that would have given me friction burns on my tongue and lips. She was upset over a disagreement in the amount of a utility bill she was paying. The representative trying to help her was courteous and very helpful and gave all of the information that was needed, but at no point was I ever actually able to translate the information to the other person because she would cut me off within two words of my translation.

I take many calls from the American Social Security Administration for people who have hit retirement age and are about apply for their social security benefits. The list of questions rarely changes. I could almost conduct the interview myself if I had access to the SSA computer systems. The person being interviewed is about to cross a line and enter into a new stage of life, at least as far...
  5. Hover Fly

    There is a hover-fly next to the house today. I’m not really sure what kind of insect it is, honestly. It’s body is reflectively metallic and ripples with the dark rainbow of oil on wet pavement. It has a very large body, more like a bee than a fly. A quick internet search gave me information that there are solitary, stingless, ground burrowing bees native to Puerto Rico that might or might not be my little morning-coffee companion. It can hover with a precision that is just amazing....
