I've been having complicated dreams recently, as might be expected from the amazing shifts going on in my life.

During one of last night's dreams, I was being interviewed by a man for an unknown reason. He was unfamiliar to me, a suit-wearing, generic "businessman". One of the questions he asked referred back to my year of having both uncrowned_king and _storyteller_ as ( Read more... )

This morning I dreamed I was doing internet research, glanced away from the computer, saw a small cobra on my desk rearing up -- and woke up fast!

So much for sleeping in this morning. . .

I woke up this morning around 4:30am and could not get back to sleep. I was up until around 6:30, then went back to bed and finally fell asleep after some struggle ( Read more... )

Two days left in admin hell!

I have to buy a new bathing suit today for the trip.
Not looking forward to it.

Dreamed last night that I got to Florida and it was snowing.
That really put a crimp in the Everglades open-boat tour.

Thanks to everyone for the book recommendations!
I went with blessed_harlot's recommendation of Snow Crash, and a historical fiction ( Read more... )
