Musical Pipe Dream: I’m sitting at a booth in a restaurant with red upholstery. The backs of the bench seats go as high as the back of my head. There is a free bowl of boiled peanuts in the center of the table. Close by there is a small television screen and karaoke machine playing a FITTO laser disc with Summer Wine playing and my parents are singing a duet.

Did I write this one already or have I just thought about it a lot?

Musical Pipe Dream: It’s 2AM and I’m on the lobby floor of a hotel during a convention. There are populated tables set up to play table top games. In the far back corner, I’m playing the drums in a Rock Band competition.

Musical Pipe Dream: I’m singing in a lounge to an audience that isn’t too thrilled with my performance. I’m wearing a men’s leisure suit in the 1970s style. I’m pointing at people and singing to them while dancing smoothly to the beat. My love for the audience is nonreciprocal, but I’m still giving it 100% with the sweat beads on my forehead as proof of my valor.

Blurb 1/365: I’ve heard that an action is like throwing a stone into a river. The impact causes ripples. I would assume that all the ripples would grow to their own respective radiuses until they collided with one another making different currents all together. I can’t control the water but I can control the stone.
