When creating custom Grails environments, you can’t use hyphens or Grails will complain with the following:
MissingMethodException: No signature of method: groovy.util.ConfigObject.minus() is applicable for argument types: (null) values: {null}
Change the hyphen to say an underscore, and you’re good to go.
Last night I endured a pretty erratic sleep, but it resulted in my first lengthy lucid dream. I previously had some smaller ones that were more psychedelic displays than anything else, and one that lasted about a minute, where I wasn’t able to stay in a dream state long enough for anything interesting. However, last night or should I say this morning at around 7:30AM, I experienced a full blown lucid dream. Some things became a bit jumbled toward the end, but here’s a run-down of events.
I was walking along a sidewalk in what looked like an industrial park that was quite desolate and gray under dense and shaded clouds. Then, the notion hit me, and I recall saying to myself, “wait, I’m dreaming!!” and “I can do this.” Now everyone’s first inclination is to fly, so I tried that. Off I went, soaring above some impressive oak trees, but I wasn’t really able to control my flight, which nearly woke me. I managed to stay in it, and come back down to continue my journey through this strange, dark, but somewhat familiar landscape of closed offices and large lawns.
I was hoping that one of these buildings were open to allow for some exploration, but was denied. I then thought to myself, “I want to interact with ‘people’ to see what that would be like. Maybe they can offer me insight; maybe answer some questions none of us here can.” The climate was changing a bit. The clouds were brighter, but still very gray and cool, while carrying a touch of rainfall. Unfortunately, no one else was around, except a black cat that morphed into some other four-legged creature who ultimately transformed, just like the atmosphere, into a dog – a Doberman Pincher to be exact.
My next idea was to attempt to lift something I would not normally be able to, and thus appeared several statues of animals. One of these animals was a dog – yes, a Doberman. This is where it gets a little fuzzy, but when I tried to raise this solid and substantial object, I was attacked by a vicious, ravenous dog. I’m not sure if the statue turned into this living beast or if the same animal I had seen previous was my assailant, but it caused me to awaken.
