Dream Diary

Had a really weird dream last night.

I was helping someone table at some gaming convention and Hideo Kojima was going to be a guest but he had just had some kind of scandal where he'd abandoned wife and kids (does he even have kids? I literally know nothing about the man) and so everyone was mad at him and were going to ignore him at the con.

I was hanging out at the table I was assisting with and Jared Leto shows up for some reason. I do not like him, so I ignore him. This seems to just draw his attention and he keeps trying to engage me in conversation and I reply because I'm not a total dick but there is no enthusiasm in my voice. I make it clear I have no interest in talking to him. He continues to hang around but I pay him no mind as he annoys other people at the table.

Inexplicably, I have boxes full of personal items not related to the con. They're three big cardboard boxes stacked up in a tower sitting on the floor by the end of the table. They get knocked over or something and spill, and I have to pick everything up. I cant fit the items back into the boxes they way they'd fit in there in the first place. Jared Leto looks on ominously from where he sits in a lawn chair that has materialized.

That's where the dream ends.

Bit of a frustrating day today, if I'm honest. My grandmother has been in the hospital for a couple weeks now, and last night she was going to be transferred to the nursing home to recover from surgery. This was going to be the second attempt at this. The last time, she was in the nursing home for maybe a couple days before a new infection was discovered and she was sent back to the hospital.

The transfer was supposed to happen around 6 PM or so last night. I get a text from my mom, whose spending pretty much all of her time with my grandma at the hospital, that says she's still there at 7 AM this morning. Great. I call my mom around noon, since that's about when I woke up and saw the text, to check and make sure she was able to go home and at least sleep for a little bit.

During this call, she tells me they're giving my grandma a blood transfusion because her blood oxygen has been low. I have no medical knowledge, but I guess a transfusion would fix that. And literally, as I am typing this, I just got a call from my mom at 10 PM to tell me they still have not transferred her to the nursing home. If they don't do it by midnight tonight, they have to start the paperwork process all over again because of insurance or whatever. Love this country. Love when insurance postpones the most basic shit for no real reason.
