The Nightmare Inside

-
I had a horrific nightmare this morning. One of those that leaves you gasping for breath and holding your heart inside of your chest because it's beating so fast it might explode. I remember driving in my car. The one that I own now. I was going up a steep hill. I was in the left hand lane and I noticed that smoke was lightly coming out from behind the front wheels. There was so much traffic that I couldn't do much but hope that I made it to the top. I did and the smoke stopped. I was in a hurry, wherever I was going. Then the car suddenly accelerated. I lost control and veered to the right. I knew I was going to hit another car and I did, but not terribly. Just enough to throw me into a terrifying spin off the side of the cliff. I knew I was going to die and all that I kept screaming was NO NO NO! It was so realistic. I could feel the wind in my hair and the steering wheel under my hands. Even the drop of my stomach when my car went airborne. I woke up before I hit. I guess some things are too much, even for the sleeping mind.

In happier news, I had a breakthrough with my drawing yesterday. I'm confident that I'm going to finish it by tomorrow and have it in the mail on saturday.

Lost Girl

Lost girl protects what is precious to her Can you say the same for yourself sir Hidden pockets of misery and divine Islands of hope if only they could shine Lost girl pushes away heartfelt love Not deserved, bloodied and shoved Unexplainable expectations she's given A heart not beating, held broken, riven Lost girl bites back urges to cry A scream past parted lips, only a sigh Shaking inside, flying apart, unraveling Logic and reason, following, traveling Lost girl can't tread water any longer Deep breath, under, float, stronger Leave behind all that exists here Keep it safe, hidden from fear Lost girl wants to turn back, embrace Behind closed eyes, only her face Accept what's been said and done Move forwards, towards the rising sun

Losing Money

That's what my bosses are doing today. They make us work on Memorial Day and then question why we aren't busy. But hey, why should I care? I'm getting paid to sit here and read. It's just that sometimes I can't help feeling I'm stuck in a Saturday detention. Doesn't help that half of the employees called in 'sick' today. Maybe I'm just jealous and bitter. I did have a wonderful weekend though! We went to the lake on Saturday and couldn't have asked for better weather. Had a BBQ, soaked up some sun, went home and slept. I watched Trainspotting while I unpacked some more boxes. It was disturbing to say the least and the baby, TRAUMATIZING. Johnny Lee Miller is absolutely adorable though. On Sunday we went to the theater and saw Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End . I was a little 'iffy' about it because I had read it was over 2 1/2 hours long. The second one wasn't very good in my opinion, but I decided to give this one a ...

So this is INCREDIBLY rambly...just had to get some things out! Life is.... interesting I feel..... everything One moment I feel very adult-like. I have responsibilities, a career (even if it's one I don't like). I have bills to pay and I'm budgeting my money. I make wise choices and investments. I help people with their problems and I am a shoulder to cry on. I fix things and I'm in complete control. I know how the world works and I feel comfortable with that. In between this breath and the next I'm on my ass. Things aren't like that at all. Am I just fooling myself? Is it a coping mechanism for us because we are so programed to think that way? Do we really believe we have to be in control of everything? The world is constantly changing, like the ocean. We are constantly changing. I have a childlike desire to see and experience everything. Good or bad, it doesn't matter. I want to feel pain, extreme pain along with happiness and complete joy, e...
