dreams and streams

I had the most absurd dream last night. I was trying to fit myself into a centrifuge, in the hope that I could "spin myself down". Getting in wasn't a problem, but I was pouring coke(?) into a bucket to see if it could serve as a balance. I wonder if it means anything?
I need to get out of the lab more often..

On a completely separate note, the apartment was in a state of total disarray after I got home this evening. lil C (caeser, my dachshund) was freaking out that I hadn't come home all day... He somehow managed to open the shoe cupboard, and pull out every last shoe.. AND.. chew up a fair number of them! To make matters worse, he decided to boycott the "wee wee pad" and poop all around the room, making the place look (and smell) very sordid. Now.. you don't just let a dg get away with stuff like this. So obviously, I yelled at him.. and raised my hand to smack him..
Big mistake.
The lil dude, afraid of what would happen, started peeing. Now when a human kid (or grown-up) is scared, and they pee, they're usually wearing clothes (hence the expression, "so scared he pissed his pants"). Unfortunately, lil C doesn't wear pants, so he unloaded on the floor.
So now, theres poop, shoes, and pee all around the floor. It looked like a bathroom from hell..
sigh. I coulddn't even blame the lil guy, so I took him out for a walk.

my gmail account/orkut still isn't opening. my life officially sucks.
