New Job

October 27th, 2003

Well today is the day that the missus starts her new job, so good luck to the missus. It’s a bit of a change from her last job (Driving ambulances) so she’s a bit nervous, though excited.

One thing I’ll miss though is the occasional tales from the 999 control room, my favourite one being…

“What service do you require?”
“I need an ambulance. I’m in a coma.”
“You’re in a coma?”
“Yes. I am in a coma, and I need an ambulance.”
“Are you conscious?”
“No.”

He got his ambulance, bless ‘im. Anyway, the missus starts selling houses in a legal capacity at 12 today. Quite why she has to get up before me when I start at 9 I’m still not quite clear, though I suspect it has something to do with requiring me to walk the dog and it being cold outside.

Speaking of which, the field in front of my house which regular readers may recall is Earie Indiana in microcosm, has developed what can only be described as a half-dug, four-foot long, shallow, empty grave accompanied by two abandoned shovels and a plank of wood this morning. Most bizarre.

Speaking of bizarre, here’s a weird dream update.

Using a golden key stolen from the crown jewels, I unlocked a VCR’s secret ability to suck people into movies. Once inside the movie, which was a King Arthur-type epic, I learned that the VCR knew the entire history of the world having watched all those videos that were played in it.

The VCR could mix up the history of the world to suit the movie, and proved it by changing the horse that I was riding into a giant, wild boar and replacing my medieval sword with a sub-machine gun.

I then pulled a long silver broadsword out of the ground and charged towards a castle, dicing up the shocked looking nuns who lined the driveway.

Of all the weird dreams documented in this blog, this one concerns me the most.
