my dreams have been really intense lately; perhaps it's the pleasure of my new room and my general excitement/ i dunno. in that dream the other night w/ my coworker, i was in some sort of underground mall and then we went down a huge empty airport-like hallway and then there was a door and we were in a total den of iniquity... there were people having sex or just sitting around readingg, it was a really weird space, v. living room but with all kinds of stuff going on, from totally shocking to utterly mundane. kinda cozy looking. anyway i sat next to stephen (my coworker) and he was reading a magazine, then he turned to me and i thought he was about to kiss me but i found we were playing some sort of complicated breathing game. then we made out and then i woke up. hmmm.
and last night i dreamt that my roommate pete was married to this beautiful blonde french woman named alexis with like 4 children of her own; she was a fashion designer and we had a HUGE loft on the coast somewhere and she was having a show there and there were all these kids running around and being v. lord of the flies. all foggy blue light and sunshine falling through dusty windows. he was still with his real life girlfriend in the dream, though.
who was that famous person, Jung maybe, who said that hearing other people's dreams is the most boring thing ever.
is that true? i like hearing peoples' dreams.

too bad i have work today, i feel like i could be productive in more creative ways. oh well.

some people who've heard me talk about it might think i hate my job; not true! it'a a pretty good job i guess. i just hate the entire concept of having to exhaust myself working an unfulfilling and low-paying job just in order to survive long enough to do what i really want, you know?

i have moved into my new room... it has: windows!!!
yesssss. a whole row of skylights, which i love. it took a lot of finesse to get everything put away (it's hard when it is just one big room) but in 2 days i am done. i am so organized sometimes it disturbs even myself. so i will eventually put up pictures of my holiday in my folders but for now i shall just direct you to my myspace blog, if you care. link to the left, i think. they are in there somewhere.

sorry i have been so boring lately; i have too many different things going on in my head right now.

i had a really intense dream involving a boy i work with, one who i think is cute but with whom i have never hung out at all. it was a bit unsettling but did make my whole day yesterday wonderful...

i will add pictures soon, of travels and whatnot, but right now i am tired and i have to go to work anyway.
xoxo.

i'm home!

i'm in london!

i always get a little nervous when i am just starting a vacation... i feel soooo far away from home and i am so tired and the prospect of being around my family 24/7 for the next 2.5 weeks is a bit nerve-wracking. last night i danced and packed (i love drunk packing) and stayed up all night and my crush escalated to cuddling but not making out. it's fucking cold here and i feel weird; i think i am going to takea bath and go to bed because i feel too confused to do anything else.

edit: it's snowing!
a coupla photos in my phone cam pics folder.

no, i'm not canadian (i so often wish i were, though)... i'm going to meet my parents in maine (to me that's the frozen north), where they reside. then we're going to london for a few days, then dubrovnic, croatia!

I'm going on vacation tomorrow! hurrah! I'll let you know how the frozen North is in a few days, brrrrrrrrrrr.

that was probably the best nye i've ever had... it was utterly random and stupendous!
note: see wallace's journal for a good recap. i'm too lazy.
