Random dreams from the past two nights:
My ear was stone because of Medusa's whispers. I was held captive with another woman. I felt sorry for the man, wanted to be his friend, but at the same time I was terrified and had the urge to escape. I wasn't bound, so why didn't I run? May be the other woman, the other side of me, was content to stay. He got rid of everything that smelled like me in a tearful rage.
I have had the strangest dreams lately. I don't know if it is what I am eating before going to bed or what. The dreams have been more vivid as well. Not only can i see what is going on, I can hear, smell, feel, and taste it as well. Makes for interesting perspectives when I wake up and I am suddenly back in my bed, my husband by my side.
I was informed by my sister-in-law that Spring is not her favorite season by any means. She said this while sniffling and coughing and tilting her head at all angles trying to get her nose un-stuffed. Pollen, mosquitoes, gnats...I am inclined to agree with her as I sneeze and wheeze and try to see through my blurred vision. It makes one quite miserable.
I gave her John Cleese's How to Irritate People. She is a budding Monty Python fan. I must expose her to as much of it as I can, which isn't too much for the time being since she is 13 and is probably better off waiting to see most of their skits and movies. She will appreciate them more and actually get the majority of the jokes when she is older, perhaps in 2-3 years her first foray into the movies will come. But I have educated her well thus far with Parrot Sketch Not Included, And Now For Something Completely Different and How to Irritate People. Her induction to Python fandom was, of course, Holy Grail through her best friend's father. Meaning of Life will have to wait, I am not too sure about Life of Brian, I haven't watched it in quite some time, but i am sure that will have to wait as well, for the full appreciation of the movie. I enjoy them more now than I did when i first watched them when i was a couple years older than she. I watch them now and have that "Ohhhhh. That's what that means" feeling. I was a sheltered child until the age of 16. With a great car comes great responsibiltiy, or something like that.
