MAY 13th, 1998.
I had that weird dream again. It always came back whenever I got a bit tipsy that night, or worked my butt off at my low-paying job. I imagined a white void, but later on, that exact white would gain colors, first slowly, and then more, and more as it sped up.Eventually at such a idiotic speed It blinded me, forced me to watch, made me scream to stop, until I woke up, bathing in sweat. Today, that last bit happened again.
MAY 14th.
I had it again, two times in a row. Only this time I woke up when it was still very early, 04:12 AM, to be exact. I could not sleep again, so I turned on my computer, fired up my drawing program, and started working. I had some stuff due for my job at the local comic company, which made me enough money to be stable, aside from the fact some colleagues were jerks.
While I was working, I got a strange ad. It told me about the jump to new technology. This ad claimed to have the thing, which if downloaded, would make your computer sentient. Odd, I thought. But my mind at this forsaken hour wouldn't care less. I clicked on it anyway, saw nothing happen, turned the device off, and managed to sleep 2 more hours until I got up again.
MAY 15th. The dream. Again. This time, I woke up even earlier. 04:03 AM. I thought the f*cking dog of the neighbours was at it again, but no. My computer had turned on. Curious, I sat myself down, and pondered. Did something get past it while it was in sleep mode? As I was thinking, a message popped up. ´Thank you for installing us, ______.´ Okay, odd. So now my computer would be self-aware, I suppose. I decided to ask something. ´How to go against sleep issues?´ I asked. Nothing happened, until it suddenly flashed green for just a second, and then a page of all sorts of cures against sleep depravity came up. Amazing. I'm now typing this in the morning, and even now it suggests to me the quickest ways to work as I draw at the moment.
MAY 20th. I forgot to type in more, since I was way too distracted. I was having the time of my life. I got my stuff done with tips I got, got prepped by trying to go to the ones who live next to me to talk like an adult about their dog, and even got good recipes for dinner some evenings. But now, something seems off. My computer would work still, but now as I tried to enter my drawing program, I would get locked out. It's really odd, and I tried calling tech support, but they told me it's a minor issue that gets solved itself over time. I'll just have to
