What i want to do

SO, to ease myself into my restful state ( that is ever so important to night, because i have to wake up at 4 am manana) I had 2 glasses of wine. I am now feeling quite relaxed and chipper..chipper in a relaxed way. The word chipper is too energetic for the way i am feeling. If you think of something a little more languid let me know.

Talk about taking the edge off. this really did. I was feeling very edgy. It needed to stop.

Do you ever stop and think that your mind/body is the creator of all the solutions to all of your problems? I am doing some investigation on that and will let you know of the results as soon as i can decipher them.

And so, I haven't been writing much. But things have been happening. A lot of acting with my theatre company. Less working, thank gawd. More family time. I read somewhere in the world there is a culture who believes family is a source of strength. I agree.

One thing that has been happening lately (and i have no clue what to do about it) are random urges to do things at random times. Mostly visit people. Late. Or to run really fast through an open space.

Eveything is fine otherwise. Up to par. Tip top. Hip hop and you know i dont stop!

Close Encounter

So now i will tell you the story that i have been telling people all day. My close encounter with the wild.

I was on my way to work. It was around 545 am. There was no one on my street but me. Or so I thought...

Its not like I heard a noise or anything to make me look in the general direction of the gate that surrounds the ivy patch on the side of my building. Maybe I felt its presence. I looked instinctively to my right and up to the top of the gate and there it was...an opossum.

It was big and looked a like an over sized rat with a demonic monkey face. I wasn't sure what it was at first but somehow i had the vague idea that it was indeed a possum. Even though i have never seen one up close before..

It was looking into my eyes. It was smiling, but the way its face was shaped, it looked sinister. I thought he was going to attack me. So i kept my cool and walked away and then i took the bus 1 stop to the train instead of walking. I couldn't risk it following me to my stop!

On the train i looked up possums on my iphone. apparently it is an "opossum" bc possums are from Australia. And they are common in the Northeast of the US so its not to crazy to have seen one considering i live near a river (it may be the NYC but yeah) they don't attack. they are also a good omen:

Opossum may be relaying to you that you are to expect the unexpected and be clever in achieving your victory. Opossum is beckoning you to use your brain, your sense of drama, and surprise - to leap over some barrier to your progress. Just be aware of your surroundings and stay on your toes

After rereading this.,.well its obvious..i need to get some stat. How is this my story of the day? oh jeez

Dream Meanings

Weird dream last night. Some of the symbols. (taken from swoon.com)

Chase

No luxury, but a comfortable old age through your own efforts is forecast in a dream in which you participated in or observed a chase.

Shopping Mall

These uniquely American complexes are like cathedrals, promising a consumer dream, a social setting and ample parking--all under the watchful eye of a security camera. The overall meaning here is that invisible forces are dictating your life. Take heed of what kinds of stores fill the various levels for more precise insight. If you are trapped in a labyrinthine or closed shopping mall, you may be frustrated by the lack of spontaneity and choice in your waking life. If you dream of a strip mall, you can take or leave the restrictive circumstances at any time.

Escalator

This dream symbol follows the general rule that up is an omen of success and down is not; however, in this particular instance, a downward motion indicates a defeat that could be reversible by the application of intelligent determination.

Fortune Cookies are on top of their game!

And that is why I am eating avocado and Lays classic chips past my bedtime. I obeyed my fortune cookie and am living the moment the way i want to..consuming.

Fortune cookies totally saying the right thing this month. Like recently I opened one that said "The big issues are work, career or status right now." And YES those are all issues for me right now..big ones!

Dude, are you wearing Chanel No. 5?

Yuppers. There was a dude wearing Chanel No. 5 on my early train this morning. I looked around to see if it was coming from a woman, you know considering its a woman's fragrance and no--no no it was coming from a man.

I can see scents and let me tell you my entire vision was clouded with sour yellow and gray fuzzy splotches. Not cool, man. not cool.

Free time/Me time at home

I went on a walk today and I came across these two CD's on the cracked side walk. I thought i was the only one in the neighborhood to listen to Hoobastank. Who is this mysterious eclectic music lover? I must know..I must know...

The church of the elementary school i went to when i was in the 2nd grade. Only for that yr. Funny enough I reconnected with some people from my second grade class in my high school. Yes, i am sure this is all terribly interesting to you all. (lol) If you look hard you can see the sign above the doors it says "Faith", "Hope", "Love". I went to this church every Sunday for about 2 years after i got together with my first love to thank God that it all worked out.
Reason why I am feeling loose and having a loud conversation with Mom and her boyf right now.
So many bottles. Only one is drinkable.
