Dream last night

Had a bad dream last night. I got lost while driving a truck to a welding shop, stopped at a warehouse to ask for directions.

One of the people working in the warehouse recognized me, as we worked together between 1986 and 1987.

In real life, the guy who recognized me and I really did work together.

While we were working at the whop between 1986 and 1987 the company had gotten low on work, so some of the welders were laid off.

The foreman of the shop happened to be my ex-wifes grandfather (my wife and I were married at the time).

Here it was 26 years later and the guy wanted to fight me for something I did not even do, and something that happened 26 years ago.

Why would I dream about something like that?

Something that might have brought this dream on, around 1993 I went to work for a welding company in Beaumont Texas.  The supervisor was one of the people that had been laid off around 1987.  Here we were 6 years later and he was still pissed off about it.

I did not have anything to do with him being laid off, the company got low on work, and that is just the way things are.

Its November 2012 already

It seems like only a few days ago we were ringing in 2012, and now we are about to ring in 2013.

Where has the time gone?

As I get older, the time flies by faster and faster.  My kids are almost grown, my oldest is 26 years old, while my youngest is 16 and a half.  Where has the time gone?

The 1980s feel like only yesterday, but then again they feel like a lifetime ago.

So much has changed in the past 30 years.  The late 1970s and the early 1980s seem like a whole other world.

I wonder how I will feel when I reach my mom and dads age?  What will things be like when I am 60 years old?
