Night 12.
I'm addicted to counting.

12th night, 280th hour, 16800th minute, 1000000th second.
244 ceiling tiles in my room.
1 reply from TehillimZugger.
19 Exclamation points in TehillimZugger's post.

But whose counting.

Anyway, great weekend with friends, haven't thought about this stuff until I got home to post.
Good Night.

Another bad dream:(

That's the second one since I started.
I don't remember ever having such dreams.

A bad omen?

You know what, you just reminded me- I had a bad dream Friday night
I had really forgotten. Seriously. Check out my WOCOM post

Tip: copy-paste it into Microsoft Word and look at the character count, far easier than counting manually

The strange thing is that until I began this journey I didn't have these dreams, but now I keep having vivid dreams, with a lot of "questionable" content (to use a polite word). I'm even thinking about these things much much less during this stretch so it's really inexplicable unless RGT is right:


The yetzer hora is trying to break your resolve. Don't let him.

It should be very simple, Your body is getting used to not having these things, so if you don't give it the body while ur awake it's going to get it when you can't fight, and that is wehn ur asleep. But it lives off of what you think by day, so in the beginning there is still plenty of what to feed on from previous times, but as we go longer without it, the dreams will loose their power as well. (hey!! that sounds good, not that I knew it before I typed it)

but for sure, it's the YH, it's trying to stop you, don't give it a second thought!!

Day 13
Feels like cruise control.

But there's someone in my rear-view mirror
does anyone recognize him?
Here's a photo:

So strange. That guy's been following me all my life.

I've tried to shake him many time but he doesn't let go. I finally had to concede. He's there for the long haul. I no longer drive like a nut trying to get him off my tail. I simply don't engage him in any way shape or form.

Tell him I said hi.

You guys are very perceptive.
And you make me smile.

Which is something, even which all his cunning, can't do.

Why is there no YAWN avatar?

there is no yawn avatar, for if one is yawning, he is in the wrong place. This site is for people that are on guard every moment of the day/night. If one has fully recovered, perhaps they can yawn....you'll have to ask 'em...I don't know; I aint anywhere close to being there.

G.Y.E., ......GO YAWN ELSEWHERE!!!!

[and that is not a command or an instruction to anyone in particular; it is for the yawners.]
