Reason # 357 that I'm more creative when I'm unconscious
In a dream last night, I was at some kind of Willy Wonka-esque candy store where I was allowed to eat as much as I wanted. It was a tough decision because I knew I only had so much room in my belly and I didn't want to squander it. The Willy Wonka-esque candy proprietor asked me if I like chocolate and I said yes. "Then you need to eat this first," he said, and handed me a truffle with a little indentation in it that, on further inspection, looked sort of like a mouth that was opening and closing. I was horrified. "This creature has the ability to taste chocolate much more intensely than you ever could," the candy man told me. "If you eat this before you eat some chocolate, then you will be able to experience the most intense chocolate flavor you've never imagined."
I really need to learn to consciously tap into the part of my brain that can think of things like this.

At least I'm consistent.

I'm never afraid of crazy people... at least they are committed.
