I didn’t remember much of my dreams from last night… but I do remember that the dreams were bad. I was restless, had trouble finding the comfortable position for sleep. A recent dream had me in a long room, working an assembly line of roses… one person planing a wooden block, drawing ribbons of tree-stuff into circles on a dowel, forming a rosebud. Dip them into a fragrant oil, and light them on fire… they would then bloom into deep flame-colored roses. Dark Reds, Oranges and whites… I don’t remember Blue one, but they all were the color of fire. many friends were there, from the present and the past. My love was by my side, I remember that, quite vividly. On reflection, I wonder if it took place in the same house we were searching/decorating/moving into… the room was some sort of dining area with deep, rich wood, overstuffed chairs, and thick, strong burgundies, reds, and forest greens. I think the dining table was perhaps able to seat 13 or more to a side… dream lengths and widths, depth perceptions rarely are static for me.

Wow. I *really* need to get a new job. I’m terrible….. I fully planned to have it by January. First real day of submissions today, I was just foolin’ around before. I drank some beer tonight, not usually my habit but I’m glad I did….Loosened my worry, and I can focus on getting some information set to go.

anyone want to recommend another?

Going to do a little writing now.

I love Ornj more than Cap’n Crunch, with berries.

That’s a *LOT*.

*monchmonch* I’d like to have her here now, so I could have both.

MMM. Cereal. It’s what’s for breakfast.

The girl has gone to bed, and I’m soon to follow.

An *insane* amount of Haiku happening in sweetalyssm‘s journal. Good Job to both her and Kevin on keeping me on my toes! Is there any way to make your default view in LJ ‘everything’? No threads, no pages?Just one big honking huge scroll-screen? It’s too hard to get to the juicy stuff!

Weird Al’s wishlist.

No, really!

I had a lot of Haiku fun last night… I think that I may declare Saturday Haiku day, where all I post are Haiku in my own journal, and as replies to other folk’s posts. Everyone who replied did quite a good job. 🙂 It got difficult to keep up at points… and there was quite a lot of sheer artistry.

I’d love to see other folk’s entries, too… It was a pile o’ fun.

A well as the poetic leanings, spent a lot of good quality time with girl of my dreams… that can’t be bad. How can anyone resist a love where you’re stimulated intellectually, emotionally, and sexually, all at the same time? I want to do something very special for her, but I don’t know if she’d want it or not… we’re usually in a great sync, but this is something big, and I want to make sure she’ll enjoy it.

Big Happy Birfdaze, Dixie!

*hug*

Remembering a time when I was younger…. There were spans of time when he and I would do all sorts of things together… We played land of the lost in a mall near our house that was being built… always pretended to be sleestaks… the hissing lizard men who tormented the lost humans.

Paula Cole asks me
“Where have all the cowboys gone?”
I sent them away.

Reaching the center.
How many licks does it take?
You will never know.

My moon-based Death Ray
Panics the people of Earth.
Mock my theories now.

Three Rings for the Elves
Seven for the groovy Dwarves
Nine for Mortal Men

you are being watched
your every move recorded
Big Brother loves you

Newton just was named as Salem from Sabrina… I hardly regard myself as Melissa Joan Heart with magical powers…

I picked up a fresh copy of Dandelion Wine to read to my love. I can hardly wait to begin… forging new memories, to have her hear it for the first time…

Sweetie! Hurry up and get home!!

I’ve been drinking water all day long. I think I’ve processed approximately a gallon completely, and about a gallon is still in my system. woo.

I’m going to try and stick with water only as a beverage… see what happens.

Sorry about the last post… using LJ as a code scrapbook… it’s gone now. 🙂

Is it me, or has the Simpsons not all that funny anymore? I’ve been watching it a little recently… and the last three Sunday night shows have been *really* weak. Either I’ve grown too far from it’s humor, or the humor it had just isn’t there anymore. The writing seems very weak to me…

On a similar note… can we go back to one cartoon network? Or, can I get both? I like power puff girls just fine, but I Want to see some Herculoids, classic speed racer… All the cartoon network ever seems to show is its own hubbub. Has anyone come out with a ‘Hong Kong action’ network yet? I think it’d fit well with the ‘romance’ ‘western’ ‘mystery’ ‘sci fi’ themes… Sometimes I just want to see some guys hopping around muttering…”You killed the master, Drunken Tiger scorpion style!!” Hyah!

Feel weird today.

Good things –
I’m *super* glad part a of my vallies day gift made it…. when she checks the mail today, the remainder stuff should be there. I feel strongly that she’ll like ’em… even if it’s going to arrive a bit out of sequence… she got the ‘middle’ gift first… (Chocolates)… the bigger and more personal gifts will be there for her today. Trinkets of happiness to bring her joy…

I wonder how much chocolate is left? 🙂 (I’m a piggy… would be eating them throughout the course of the day)

Got a card from her today, and it was sealed with a peppermint kiss… yum. I cherish her written words so much…

Tough things –
Lost contact with her several times last night, either through her machine, my machine or the net… I didn’t get to say goodnight, or give her a parting ‘I love you’. She knows how I feel, but I have such a strong urge to tell her so.

Work today is finicky… I should be over the bumpy bits in a few hours though. Can’t seem to make this script want to dance the way I’d like it to, but the day is young.

My co-workers are sort of antsy today too.. an odd vibe in the air. There’s a tangible tension surrounding everything… maybe once I leave the building here, the ‘stress-membrane’ will break. I actually feel the small hairs on the back of my neck rising.

Got 3 of my VAGG vallies back in the mail… all were to Canada, and all were $.03 short on postage. ack. Sorry! They’ll get to you, just a little late.
