I dozed off into a peculiar dreamland ruled by Losto, the fluffy looking Lots-O'-Huggin' Bear from Toy Story 3, who teleported all of my Green & Black’s Organic 85% cocoa Dark Chocolate bars to Mars and ordered me to dance around like Super Mario Brothers with Polish compoer Henryk Mikolaj Gorecki’s String Quartet No. 3 “pieśni śpiewają” (“…songs are sung”) as the background music. Phew. An exhilarating gaming experience, I must say. I used the diploma of my bachelor's degree to blast off a massive army of evil teddy bears and had to solve two Schenkerian analysis puzzles just to get to Losto’s chamber. Losto begged for mercy. So I kindly asked my giant bodyguard Totoro from Hayao Miyazaki’s world to babysit Losto’s crankiness, forever.

I woke up. Listened to Henryk Mikolaj Gorecki’s Symphony of Sorrowful Songs while editing photos of Basilica of Saint Mary in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

R.I.P. Henryk Mikolaj Gorecki.
