It's Thursday! Come all ye and rejoice! Friday is nigh!!11
« on: January 29, 2009, 10:22:50 AM »
Grey and dreary day here.  Got the puppy running about the house scattering bits of chewed rawhide around like confetti. 

I got a fair amount of sleep last night and am feeling a little giddy because of it.  Some shopping to do today for food and such but nothing major to do.

What's up in your neck of the woods?

Cold and sunny here with about 3-4 inches of snow on the ground, but that is better than the places that got hit by the severe winter storms.  Thursday is the last day of my 4 day weekend and also the day to go grocery shopping.

Mostly sunny here at 34...supposed to get up to the mid 40's...colder tomorrow and back up until Monday when rain or snow is predicted. Bad stuff just seems to keep missing us.

Showing a house late this afternoon and catching up on reports in the meantime. M went out to take pictures for me early this morning on MLK avenue. I don't usually go down there by myself. He came in a few minutes ago to tell me the opening of the noon news said there was a shooting down there at 1:30 this morning.  Ooops... probably a good thing he didn't hear that before he left the house this morning.... :o

Digging out of the ice.  Probably working this Saturday, so I'll have no time to pack or clean before heading out to Iowa on Sunday.  :censored:

I totally slept through my alarm today.  Thankfully someone sent me a text message at 7:15am and I woke up and hurried about getting dressed.  Then traffic sucked ass and the fog was really heavy on the way to school and I was still like 10 minutes late, but b/c of the fog she didn't count anyone tardy today.

Then I realized we must not have heat in the classrooms, cause I was freezing my tushy off!

Anywho, I'm now at work and doing a little of this and a little of that.

Stayed up until 0400 because I've been fretting over my misplaced passport & SSN Card. Meanwhile, I've been running around trying to track down documents for a potential employer. Seems that my passport & SSN card have been stashed away somewhere "safe" and, for the life of me, I can't remember where they are. Anyways, went to the SS office for a replacement card. The wait was terrible. The up side is that I have a job interview tomorrow morning with an employer nearby, but it doesn't pay very well. It might be a stop gap measure, at best.

Work's slowed down this afternoon, thank goodness.  I'm getting ready to watch some of the FBR Open.  I'm such a productive employee ;) 

School tonight, much fun to be had!   :p

It's really nice here and I don't have to work until sunset. Have to limit my overtime due to getting paid for going to school on the weekend.

I should be studying, but I can put that off until Friday night.  :lmao: What the heck is an alligation and why do I need to know?

My two friends and I are already arguing about what we are going to do in Las Vegas on Saturday. Where to go to lunch, where to shop, etc....

I could use a new pair of shoes.  :-)

Well I better try to learn something. In my industry simple math mistakes kill people. Too bad for them that I hate math.   :rotf:

Yeah, I wouldn't mind if I had evening classes available to me.  Plus, you know how I hate these youngsters I go to class with.

I went shopping with my Mom after I took my daughter to the ortho.  Went to Dillards and got a TON of stuff really cheap.  It was amazing.

I am really tired today.  I woke up at 3:00 am this morning after having a dream about my brother.  It was a very weird dream.  We were at his funeral except for we were in a hotel room.  Everyone at the funeral was in one hotel room and my brother laying in his coffin was there too.  Everyone was doing their make-up, shaving, etc.  It was strange.  Then I walk over to his coffin and he is bunched up at the bottom of the coffin.  I freak out and ask how did he move.  Then he opened his eyes but I wasn't afraid.  I asked him how could he move (knowing in my head in the dream that he had an autopsy).  I stood there touching him.  Then the next minute it was me, my brother and my husband laying on the bed watching TV.  I still know it is his funeral and everyone is still around but no one is acting odd or anything.  I called him my son's name by accident (something I do all the time, sometimes I call my son Mark (my brother) or Kevin (my husband).  My brother then spoke.  He said don't compare him to me (something my Mom and I do all the time).  I got the feeling he meant not to compare my son to him because it puts a lot of pressure on my son.  I then asked him if he wanted to stay.  He said it didn't matter.  So then I asked him to stay, said I needed him to stay.  Please stay.  I'm touching him at the same time and he is cold.  He said, "it's better over there". 

Then I woke up and looked at the clock, it was a little past 3 AM.  It was hard to fall back asleep after that. I just kept thinking about everything in the dream.  When I was telling my Mom about the dream she started crying and I felt bad for telling her about it.   :(

At least I'm always clearly the smartest one in all my classes though.  LOL!

Actually it wasn't bad.  I woke up feeling good actually.  I wanted to go back to sleep so I could ask him more questions but the harder I tried the more awake I became.

I'm lucky or unlucky that I never remember my dreams.  Well, unless it's a particularly startling dream that wakes me up, but that only happens every few months at most.

FWIIW, I think it is not unusual to dream of a departed loved one.  My Mom has been gone for 10 years now and I still see her in my dreams -- at least twice a month. In the first year it was like 3 or 4 times a week.  I believe it might be them visiting us in a way that we can handle.

I know that contemplative feeling after a poignant dream (everyone here knows about my sleep problems). 

I am sorry about your Mom, but those feelings are there anyway -- it isn't on you for bringing him up.

I don't think I've ever dreamed about a person I actually know.


I have.  But the dreams I normally remember aren't "good" dreams.  One of the last ones involved cockroaches.  *shiver*
