Ribbon dream exchange

In college I had vivid dreams with vivid colors. Usually there'd be multi colored ribbons streaming in the air. One end was tightly wound around a pole while they were allowed to move, weave and tangle as they wish. Sky or water, there was always a blue background with streaming colors grasping at life.

Now, I dream about my cubicle and the papers that wait for me there. Earlier in the week I dreamed I was chasing my cat around the driveway. Last week I dreamed T-B was hushly whispering about the complexity of the day.

Point: I'm stressed. It's not as if I'm laughing any less or anything as measurable as that. Its more like I'm starting to achieve what I set out to accomplish and...now what? Do you know the maintenance cost for the intangible? The way I see it, you pay out of the soul and it's difficult to keep that kind of thing in the books. Who likes to keep receipts for 60 hour weeks while using corporate lingo like "disconnect" and "opportunity"?Dudes, in real time "opportunity" means an additional 10 min. with a crabby boss.

Yesterday a co-worker told me that at the end of each day he's mentally created a list of 5 things he wishes he hadn't said out loud. I can't remember some of the things that come out of my mouth and he's thinking about details that he wants to take back?
