I was taking a final for a social studies test. Breezed through the multiple choice, realized that I hadn&#8217;t read the chapter that I needed for the essay &#8211; but it was open book so I figured I would just read it fast and go from there. Then I saw that the chapter in the book was written by <a href=\"http:\/\/thebloggess.com\/\">The Bloggess<\/a> herself &#8211; Jenny Lawson. Figuring I would want to really enjoy the chapter, I borrowed George&#8217;s truck (Thanks, George!) and went to Arby&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>In the middle of the final.<\/p>\n<p>I had just parked the truck and cracked open the chapter when a woman said I needed to move my truck since it was blocking the handicapped space. It really wasn&#8217;t &#8211; and she was walking around pretty good so I don&#8217;t think she really needed it &#8211; but I moved the truck anyway. As I did, I saw a house nearby &#8211; and realized that it matched a photo from Jenny&#8217;s book. I was right near The Bloggess&#8217;s house! I thought about stopping by and saying &#8220;hi&#8221;, but realized &#8211; even in the dream &#8211; that it would just freak her out since she&#8217;s got some self-admitted social anxiety issues. And I didn&#8217;t have any taxidermy animals with me to give her.<\/p>\n<p>Next, I dreamed I was at work and came up with a solution to our website editing problem. I came up with a plan where we (And by &#8220;we&#8221;, I mean pretty much everyone other than me) \u00a0would write a module that would intercept database calls, provide the users with a new editing interface, and save the content to update the database overnight. It would be a hassle for the users, but it would speed up editing. I&#8217;m not sure exactly when I came up with this awesome and totally impractical idea, so I&#8217;m just going to see if I can get 8 hours of comp time.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re welcome, University of Akron. Even when I&#8217;m asleep, I&#8217;m still saving the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, two awesome dreams last night. 1. I was taking a final for a social studies test.
