I usually release my shows Thursdays at midnight so you can kick off your weekend with the latest solipsistic NATION<\/b> but the last couple of shows have gone out a day or two late. I know that since this is a podcast you can listen to it whenever you like so being late a day or two isn\u2019t such a big deal. But if you\u2019re like me, there are a couple of shows that I really enjoy and I get annoyed when they release their shows late. If I\u2019ve annoyed you, I offer my sincere apologies.<\/p>\n
This week\u2019s show is actually three days late. I\u2019ve been sick for the last week and I just couldn\u2019t find the energy to get out of bed and record the show. Usually I take a few days off from work to recover from a cold but this year I\u2019ve taken way too many sick days as it is and couldn\u2019t afford to take any more time off so I just had to suck it up and get through the week.<\/p>\n
Being sick the last week has really sucked but I\u2019ve been having some amazing dreams!<\/p>\n
Last night I dreamt I was independent contractor who drove a supply truck for the military. I was checked through security to make a delivery and while I was on the base I saw a bunch of prisoners of war on their knees with their hands clasped behind their head while soldiers had their machine guns trained on the back of their skulls in an abandoned parking garage.<\/p>\n
On of the higher ups approached me and was threatening in a very charming way. He asked me if I\u2019d be interested in participating in one of their studies. With dream logic I knew it would be some sort of science fiction experiment that would give me fantastic powers at a terrible price. I begged off and spent the rest of the dream trying to escape from the base without drawing attention to myself.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, military scientists were studying my movements on security cameras and noted how I was unconsciously warping reality to aid in my escape. They were speculating on how dangerous I might become if I ever became aware if my power and debating when to send soldiers out to contain me.<\/p>\n
Pretty cool, huh?<\/p>\n
