i had a dream last night where i was a detective. as soon as i woke up i forgot everything about the dream, except this feeling that it was somehow creepy. i started the day by setting up on the kitchen dining table. i called my health insurance to make sure i was still enrolled because i have an annual physical appointment wednesday morning. starting in the afternoon cold rain began to fall. i went out looking for discarded christmas trees to take photos of but apparently the tree recycle truck must've been in the neighborhood because all the ones i saw yesterday were now gone. i did however find a bunch on my own street.

something new with my nest thermostat: it said it could put me in seasonal savings mode by making small adjustments to my temperature. instead of the usual green leaf saving icon, i now have a yellow green leave inside of a gear icon. now sure what it's going to do, but one thing i noticed was it decreased my heat by one degree (i prompted turned it up once i noticed).

for dinner i heated up some pasta sauce with spinach combined with some mushroom raviolis.
