Sweet dream!
All night I was flirting, and hanging out with friends. Friends that I've never met, yet I already had history with them.
I had a girlfriend and we were in love, it felt warm and relaxed. I really like the sensation of love in my dreams. It's always really deep and really familiar. I often meet with a similar woman. She's petite, but has a strength to her character, with a deep calm and wisdom.
Once I dreamed about that woman. She never look the same, from dream to dream, but the feeling is very telling. I was to go in the city, but she couldn't come. She was taking care of a herd of elk, and gave me a lock to tie the ropes. It was such a nice feeling, there was a perfection in the relation. I wonder if I'll ever met that person in real life. If I do, I'll remember the feeling, this connection that I've never really had with anyone.

I looked at the schematic of the LCD HAT to see which pins where connected where, and thought I'd give the following a try in config.txt (betting with myself that there's just no way this would work):
