Waking Logic

You know right after you wake up, and how you don't know, who, what or where you are? How about the funny logic that assembles everything in those brief moments before you're truly awake?

apache
I once left a my computer running overnight so that a friend on a dialup could download a bunch of largish files from me. So I go to bed and for some reason wake up in the middle of the day, wondering why it's so warm and bright in my room, and I remember that the computer is on. But wait, how can apache be running if I'm laying on top of it?

So I pulled down my blanket to free up some memory.

pets
So I wake up thinking about os developers and wonder what OS they prefer to run their dog's and/or cats on. But running an OS on a dog is unheard of; thats why geeks prefer cats.

interviews
I had an interview recently, and I think I was dreaming about it just before I woke up. As I was making the transitition, I made the realization that the entire point of the interview was to essentially say that I could do this job better than anyone else currently there, or anyone else they would interview. Without being described as a prick, cocky or any other number of adjectives relating to male genitalia. There was lots of emphasis on the penis thing.

This still kind of makes sense.
