I took a nap and had a dream. The most annoying acquaintance I know was running up my driveway, chattering about something, expecting everyone to immediately stop what they were doing to pay attention. But she was actually a robot, and she looked like Katherine Hepburn, in a black dress, pillbox hat and veil.

On entering my house, she got into a heated conversation with the smarthouse AI, named Charlie. (I don't have Alexa or Charlie or any other kind of AI but whatever.)
