I have never been to the State Fair of Texas. I’ve never seen Big Tex up close. I’ve been to the State Fairgrounds for other things, just never while the State Fair was happening.

I’ve lived in Texas my entire life.

I don’t know why that’s important. I just saw on the news this morning that the State Fair was over and they were putting Big Tex away.

He caught on fire once. That was a big news story. This year he got new boots. Also a big news story.

I’ve been having very lucid dreams lately.

Last night was strange. I had to get up and help Dan with something. It was early, and I was sitting on the edge of my bed. It wasn’t my bed, but in my dream it was my bed. I looked around my room; that wasn’t my room, but in my dream it was my room. I was trying to remember how to put on the slippers by my bed that weren’t my slippers, but, you guessed it, in my dream they were my slippers.

Then I thought, none of this is real anyway, and I went back to sleep.

I also took a nap after work yesterday, and I dreamed that we all went to a park with a lot of trees. It was so real that when I woke up, I was certain we had actually been there.

I’m not on any medication.

I think my brain is amped up because I haven’t really done anything creative for a while. I need to do more creative things.

That’s for later.

Now I have to wrap this up and go to work. Have a good Thursday.
