Got To Have Them

So last night I had two dreams

Which I actually remembered.
Now....

This never happens.

So I shall write them.

Anyway.

First one

I left my car parked somewhere in Box Hill

Came back and all the doors were unlocked

And I was like,

Okay.

It's been broken into.

Crap.

Looked inside,

Turns out the only thing they took was the hard drive from my laptop

Which is really inconvenient because that's probably the only thing I really can't replace.

They'd also neatened up my glove box,

Putting one of those little cable ties on my GPS charger

Instead of stealing it.

But..

They took the black plastic thing on the back of the car

I don't know what it's called

But the random 'ornamental' thing on the boot.

No it's not a spoiler or a bumper, before you ask.

Anyway.

That sucked.

Next thing, I was in Sydney

With Steph

And we had to walk across a really narrow long bridge suspended over a river

So we could get to the train station.

Now this bridge had no railing or anything and was really kinda scary

And I was walking really slowly across it

Laptop bag over my shoulder so I had to be careful not to fall into the water

Which apparently Steph didn't worry about

Because she was like "OH WELL"
And jumped off into the river

Before appearing behind me again so as to attempt the crossing again

Much like a video game.

She jumped once more

Before we both eventually got across

And were at the train station.

Apparently we had to go to the airport via "Rainbow"

Which I'm not convinced is a place

But I wasn't going to get there on time

Suddenly we were at the airport

Yay, convenience

And I was about to check in

When a Virgin Blue lady was holding some stick which looked like a torch

And I was like "OOH I WANT ONE"
And she goes "Would you like one?"
And I'm like "CAN I?"
And she's like "No, not you, I was talking to him.."

And motions to a colleague of hers, behind me.

Fail.

Anyway that was about it.

Dreams, yay.

In other news I'm toodling up to Sydney again today

Which I'm a little scared about.

Bring

on

the

vodka.

Encore

I can feel it
The numbness
It's slowly crawling over each sense.

I can't taste
I can't smell
I can't hear
I can't feel
Not like I could.

Just last night
I was unimpressed by sticky-date pudding.
What.
There is only one thing I can smell properly
It's intoxicating
And has the tendency to lull me into a false sense of security
As it struggles to keep me warm at night.

The only thing not yet noticably tarnished is sight
But we all know that wasn't great to begin with
And I really don't want it to get worse.

I also seem to be shedding weight
Not drastically..
But a few kilos in a couple of weeks is not completely normal
Especially when I haven't changed habits much.
I think it's a good thing
Everyone else seems to disagree.
I don't really care so much

I had a weird dream that I was going to blog about
But it seems to have slipped my mind
Which is inconvenient
I haven't dreamt much lately.

Ouch.
Gut pain.

Cold.
My inner fire is burning out.

Throw
me
a
log.

Tubthumping

It seems I am falling behind a little with my PJ365

I have about a week to catch up on..
Whoops.
I have all the photos
Just have not had the time to upload them yet


At least it's being appreciated though
A couple of people have asked me about it
Which is kind of exciting


On another note
I think Twitter is broken
The other day I somehow went from 3400 Tweets
To 10200.
Yes.
Because I totally did that in one day.
6800 Tweets.
I'm also pretty sure I had a dream about my 212th Tweet
Which happened long ago.
But whatever.
I have been having strange dreams
Like the one last night about the duck
Which was partially lobster and I was trying to peel the shell off.
Sorry duck.
It was a talking duck, even.

Maybe I should shave tonight.
Or perhaps tomorrow when I can be bothered.

I also have a bookshelf to paint.
And a DVD to edit.
Damn.

Many things to do.
Like right now
I should be working
Well..
Not really.
They haven't paid me in weeks
And there are no customers.
So yeah no.

You know what's nice
The sunset.
Much more convenient to see than the sunrise
Although by the same token not quite as special
But still beautiful.
Yesterday I actually watched it
And it was kind of awesome.
The view I think made it even better
Down at Rosebud with Rachel's extended family
Who have pretty much decided I'm part of their family
Contrary to popular belief.

Seems I have a lot to say today
Although that's not unusual
The only odd part is that I'm writing it all down.
Seemingly now only to..
Hear the sound of my own voice?
No.
Same principle, different medium.

Oh look
One more thing
Driving home this morning was superfun
Due to loud music
An open window
Perfect weather
And exciting songs
Props to Owl City
The Rocket Summer
Gorillaz
Avril (yes, I know.)
and then some.
I should do it more often.

Damn right.

Got
Back
Up
Again.

Are You Sleeping

I can't sleep, no
Not like I used to.
It lingers over me like a cloud.
Thick with inference and reason.
It surrounds me
Crawling from each corner
Of my mind
My space.
Invading.
Let
me
go.

What Time's Been Stealing

I've had a couple of weird dreams lately
I mean sure, everyone does.
But these actually worried me.
Particularly the world-ending one.
I don't know if it was the whole world, or just a group...Battle Royale style.
All I knew was that I was going to die, along with a group of people...
One of which kept making out with me despite their prior engagements.
At some point in the dream I also had to fly over a train track.. with reasonable success
But it was awful.
The whole time I had this horrible sick feeling, I knew something bad was coming and there was nothing I could do about it.
Yet I didn't wake up, I just waited.
It wasn't frenzied or panicked, but there was frustration and anxiety.
The second dream was different.
I was at a relatives house.
But I stayed for a whole year..
Suddenly it was my 20th birthday.
I was really not happy about that.
I don't know.
It was just unsettling.
I don't want to be 20.
Hell, I didn't want to be 18.
But then again, that isn't so bad.
19, though...
Not that it will be different.
But it scares me.
One way
or
another.
