My computer is broken, but I thought I’d give you a real quick update because this is one of the only chances I’ll get and SO much has changed I can’t believe its been so long! So, in extreme short form:
• Sold the jeep
• Bought a Tiburon
• Moved to Valleyview office for work and don’t like it
• Currently doing roadrunning training and love it
• Computer’s motherboard went kaplooie
• Am officially a hermit because I have no tv, computer or radio and I don’t get the newspaper
• I CAN FINALLY DRINK LEGALLY
• I keep having dreams about moose attacking me
Wait… did anyone read that last bullet? Yeah that’s for real. And I’m going to tell you about them because they are just SO WEIRD.
Dream #1
Libby, Oakes, Mason and me are walking through the woods, and all of the trees are skinny and poplar with very white trunks and orange leaves. Its fall, and there are leaves all over the ground too. Its quiet. We only walk for a very short time, and we reach the edge of what must be the ocean, because a tide is coming in or going out, I don’t know which, though it feels like a lake. Really close to the shore in the sand just barely covered by water is like a sink hole/little water tornado looking thing which is gyrating and sucking water into it. It’s dangerous, but I’m the only one that really pays any attention to it. The best way I can describe this thing, is by hoping you’ve seen The Rescuers when you were little, and remember the well that penny was trapped in, because that is actually what this reminded me of in my dream. You know the movie, come on, the one with the alligator and the crazy lady with the gun and the little mice who befriend orphan penny? Think real hard. ANYHOO, I look around, and suddenly standing beside me is this thing that looks sort of like a tiny panda, or a small badger, standing on its hind legs. Its legs and arms are like the limbs on really really old teddy bears, the ones you can move around. The badger, I decide it is, has really red rimmed eyes, but not in like an evil way, just like it is really really tired or maybe high. I try to warn Mason and Oakes and Libby that it’s a baby badger and that the things are really vicious and that we should get out of here before its mother comes and destroys us. They don’t pay me any attention and tell me that it is actually a baby panda and not to pay it any attention. We’re just keep doing nothing off in our separate ways but still close together when I look over to this hill-ish bank that has tree roots entwined in it and a scattering of leaves on it, when I see something in the ground move, and up comes a huge antler, and a moose is like climbing out of the ground! A huge moose! Huge! Anyways in the dream, its like the moose is the baby moose’s mother, and it was like after me. It charged and I tried to get away but I wasn’t fast enough so I jumped in the water and tried to swim away from it while my siblings are telling me to get out because obviously it can swim faster than me. While I’m in the water I become very conscious that I have my new iphone in my pocket, and some obscure part of my mind is freaking out because it is getting wet. (NO I do not have an iphone in real life.) Anyhoo I get out of the water and we start running back through the woods and we lose the moose and find my dad just hanging out by some big boulders. I show my dad my moose wounds which are like big huge long scars from like my ankles all the way up, and I remember distinctly one going over my knee cap that looks exactly like the scar on my elbow, but a bit wider. My dad is fairly unconcerned, maybe even disbelieving. I phone my mum on the iphone that is amazingly still working and not waterlogged. She’s shopping and i’m disgruntled because I think she should have been here to scare away the moose or something? The end.
Dream # 2
I’m driving home to Williams Lake and see a huge moose in the middle of the highway and so I pull over into someone’s driveway and get out of the car. The woman that lives there is like 45 or 50ish and she has short hair. Actually, she’s short too. We’re all like “omg you see that moose?!” “Oh wow yeah me too!” and crap, and then it like comes over a hill and starts running at us. So we start running from it, around a neighbor’s house, and then we’re kind of creeping around her house, backs to the siding (which is white and looks like my Williams Lake house) but it finds us, so I run up to the deck, but the woman is too slow, or stupid or something, and I try to wait for her, but I can’t anymore, so I go inside her house, which is kind of dingy and dark. Her son is in there, he’s about 30, just sitting in the living room, which is really cramped, and all of the furniture is really tall. Like it has been stretched upwards, and it’s kind of slanting in towards us. Everything is like darkish and brown and this guy is like really ashamed of his house. There’s a huge flat screen TV in the corner. We peek out of the blinds, trying to see what’s going on, but we’re looking out on to the deck and can’t really see anything. So I look out the front window towards my car, and I see the moose smashing his huge horns into my windshield! All I can think is “thank god it’s just the windshield, I need a new one of those anyways. (and I really do.) but then I look harder and I see that the whole hood is actually crunched in and he’s put a massive hole in it! The end.
I had another one too but I forget now, it’s been so long. I actually wrote this blog like… two weeks ago and have just finally decided I should really get to posting it. Actually I’m at work, so really I should probably be invoicing something but there is nothing to invoice anyways and I’m the only one in the office and GAWD is it ever boring. I can’t believe I just spelt that with a ‘w’, I really hate people that do that but if I had said it out loud that’s how it would have been pronounced so I suppose I have to convey the proper image and whatnot. I CAN NOT BELIEVE I’ve only been at work for an hour and a half. I guess time does tend to move extra super slow when you’re deathly ill. (hungover) and extremely sleep deprived (by choice). I can’t even think of fireball (oops I just did) without having my stomach heave and my mouth water in a bad bad way. It was a great night though.
Anyways I guess I should like pretend to work now or something.
i just tried to find a picture of my car for you all but none are taken from good angles. stupid google. anyhoo, its a black 2001 hyundai tiburon in case anyone is curious. pictures to come soon! wait. nevermind i'm lying. i don't have a computer. whatev. time to work. blech.
