honey, one more day. I know it’s friday, but the bill doesn’t actually change until tomorrow. But guess what? I don’t have to work tomorrow so I can get on whenever I want 😉 yay!

“feeling the Jen withdraws….” I feel loved. I can’t wait to get back on and actually chat with people! It’ll be on the slow modem, but sigh at least it’s at home and I don’t feel so guilty that I’m using the internet at work.

I spent another long day reading journal articles today. Yay. Getting paid to read. If only I was getting paid to read the slightly more exciting thing I brought to read during lunch. Sigh. Fantasy is cool. And getting even more of the writing jitters.

but tomorrow I’m supposed to have unlimited hours! Yay!

almost time to try-and-not-fall-asleep-during-seminar time. jusqu’a une autre fois….

you know, it’s funny when your sense of accomplishment for the day (at work) comes when you fit a large part of your story together. Remind me to tell you about it.Myrhysa, Myropel, Brynn, Brennan… it got really cool today. I invented an entire mythology. Oh yeah, and I got to do some blast replating with this cool pink goo.

Student loans… :puke:

Hey Jen! :wave: Just dropping by because I haven’t really talked to you in awhile and I’m feeling the Jen withdraws. I really wish you had unlimited internet access. 🙁 Hopefully I’ll catch you online Friday.

Egad, cause I’ve got to start paying off my loans… yuck.

That was a strange dream. But dreams are often strange. I wouldn’t really look into that one. It seems like they were random thoughts that your brain decided to showcase to your subconscious. I have dreams like that too. Maybe you’re going to see some old high school friends and you don’t know it. You never know…. 😀

Our brains are funny things. It does so much, with dreams, it seems to just pick random files in your memory and mix and match them. Then we’re left all puzzled when we wake up. 😆

Love the quizzes as always. I got 80% when it came to Orlando. :sigh: You would think I would be 100%. 😆

I had a really weird dream last night. I remember dreaming that I wouldn’t remember it this morning, which is true, sort of. I don’t remember all of it.

I do remember that I was back at my high school, and that I had ridden a school bus to get there and I was sitting next to a friend and we were talking. The bus was really loud, and I’m sure there was other stuff going on… but I don’t remember.

The high school had really changed, they’d built this entire new technology wing. I remember seeing they had two scanners, one specially designed for slides (I have no idea why I thought that was so cool). and then everyone was running around with costumes on, like roman togas and stuff. I realized I had on this white fluttery costume kind of like you see on statues of Diana. Rather short. Parts of the shirt were tucked into the skirt, so I pulled them out and went running along the hallways. Where I promptly ran into a full service restaurant and bar. I mean, I even saw the food. And everyone sat down and ordered something but I didn’t. So I went up to the bar to get something, where the bartender was filling pizza orders, and suddenly this showchoir group came in and started dancing on the tables. Vaguely familiar, as if I’d seen their show before. And there was this tub of ice water by the buffet table, and a couple of the dancers jumped in a certain point in the show. That’s about when I thought I wouldn’t remember the dream, and shortly after that my alarm went off and scared the bejeezus out of me. I went to the bathroom and went back to bed, setting my alarm for 15 minutes, or so I thought. My dad came in 20 minutes later wanting to know if I was up. Sigh.

I know, I’m weird. Anyone want to try to analyze that?

On the bright side, I finally thought up a name for one of my prophesy characters. Myrhysa Eventually I’ll actually get to writing her part. Some of it is written. There is even interaction between her and Faldor. Of course, you don’t know who Faldor is, do you? One day I’ll get to write it all down….

tell me what you think!
