I don't know why I'm awake this early. Actually, I do know, but I refuse to believe I went to sleep last night before 10, so we'll leave the whole thing a mystery for now.
Mmmm...?.....
I dreamt I joined the British army in Iraq, and then when I reached basic training, realized I couldn't be in the army because I had a paper due on Wednesday and Friday. It was a strange dream - I believe I also gave the grandma who drove me to basic 2.11 pounds, though it may have been 2.14 - there was a bit of confusion about this issue, and it took at least as much time to resolve as basic training.
Maybe it's because I've been wearing camoflagued pants (at home) a lot lately?
I can't help it, they're so comfortable! They are like pajama bottoms, except, really really durable, with lots of cool pockets.
Just checked my balance, and it looks like I'll have enough money to get to Istanbul! I'm not sure how long I'll be staying or if I'll be meeting anyone else while I'm there. I've been reading about the various ways locals scam tourists, and I have a feeling my blog posts from Istanbul will all be along the lines of "...so I'm at these guys' house... they want me to email my parents for money... I'm bleeding a lot..."
Lots of strange dreams recently. I keep taking afternoon naps, and I think my body's thanking me with really strange dreams.
Did I mention I've been doing medical experiments for money? No super powers yet, but fingers are crossed.
