not much sleep last night...
couldn't sleep last night and somewhere in the turning and twisting were some pretty fragmented and mildly disturbing dreams.
had a dream about running down a pier as a child (don't know if this ever really happened) and jumping off the end into what seemed like a lake. the odd thing was that there was some kind of elation and big meaning to the run and the jump that I knew only until the dream was fading and realization that I was in my bed and am an old man long past this event. losing both the meaning of the dream and that feeling of childhood was a weight I've not felt before.
guess I drifted back into REM land again and this time I was looking at a sign that said "Cuba, New York". I was somewhere on the streets of a town with a bicycle and was trying to find somebody I knew. everything was strange and my journey took me in circles always back to the Cuba, New York sign. as I woke, I made a mental note to check and see if the place even exists.
when I got to work at 6am, after checking the company emails and security cameras and looking at some of the adverts that are in the mix; I googled "Cuba, New York". to my amazement, there it was - and just down the road from my birthplace in Albany New York. what the heck is that about. heck, maybe it's about some other problem that's over but still nagging at me OR about nothing at all and just a joke of confusion.
heck, maybe this is how altzheimers starts. no biggie - bring it on, might be a blessing in disguise.
found a picture of Cuba, New York and included it here.

Hard To Say
~Dan Fogelberg
Lucky at love, well maybe so
There's still a lot of things you'll never know
Like why each time the sky begins to snow you cry
You're faithful to her in your careless way
And so you miss her when she's far away
But every time you think you've got it straight you fall
You face the future with a weary past
Those dreams you banked upon are fading fast
You know you love her but it may not last, you fear
It's never easy and it's never clear
Who's to navigate and who's to steer
And so you flounder drifting ever near the rocks
(Chorus)
It's hard to say where love went wrong
It's hard to say just when (It's so hard to say)
It's hard to walk away from love
It may never come again
You do your best to keep your hand in play
And try to keep those lonesome blues at bay
You think you're winning but
It's hard to say sometimes
(Chorus)
Lucky at love, well maybe so
There's still a lot of things you'll never know
Like why each time the sky begins to snow you cry
You cry...oh you still have to cry

d,
my original comment that's deleted was as offhand and impersonal as posting another persons lyrics as a message about our lives.
would rather have read your own words on us but guess that might be one of the reasons why you responded this way. I get it.
live well.
