now is the time for sleep. zzz.
jason is probably just waking up now over in NYC
i hope today i continue 2 clean. i wanna keep going until everything is clean. everything!
but...
who knows what will happen when i wake up this afternoon...

btw, i caught the last half of elizabeth taylor on larry king live last night and she is such a purring goddess! i wish i had seen the first half. i wanna be like HER when i'm her age! *meow*!


[16 Jan 2001|06:19am]
ok, now it's 6:30am and i still have not gone 2 bed!
gonna go 2 bed NOW! yes!


[16 Jan 2001|11:23am]
actually went 2 bed at 7am...
then woke up at 10:30am because of a headache. took some excedrin. now i'm type type typing
i wonder how jason's day is going


[16 Jan 2001|01:34pm]
i'm listening 2 peter murphy's "deep" album
and stretching in the fleeting sun that has appeared. it's been g=grey for weeks. THE SUN!


[16 Jan 2001|04:29pm]
stretched until it turned into almost a meditation then i started getting really tired, i tried to see if i could astral project but i couldn't. i never can do it when i want 2. it only happens by accident.
then i fell asleep and woke up in time for oprah...now i'm watching that and i just ate some tomato soup with crackerrs. i feel happy :)

jason called me from NYC, and he's doing fine except for the fact that he hasn't slept bcause there is a water pump near his room so his he said it sounded like there was a shower going on all night in his bed. they can't give him a new room because they are overbooked :/

i learned a lot today. it was a VERY good day! i had a lot of "lightbulb moments"
i will write about it alter but now i must go love thre dogs as i have been surfing and chatting in irc and icq for the last 5 hours!

part of my dream last night [17 Jan 2001|12:35am]
well, actually i dreamt from 7am till 10:30am.....
this will mean nothing to anyone but i'm posting it anyway...i don't know why. it's funny that the meanings of dreams can be so elusive sometimes, but the process of writing them down ( in every detail u can remember )will ALWAYS bring u to such great insight into them! anyway...here is part of my dream last night...i wrote it down as i had a flash of it in my mind again..the pervasive feeling of it being with me all day...but i sill had a VERY good day. full of introspection, insights, "light bulb moments", etc etc.

the more i clean my house and stretch my body...the more i just ...*ding* tap right on onto the universe/force/chi/god/dess thing again!

when i reach out to the universe and start to unclog myself and ask for universe's help ...its' RIGHT there for me again! it was never gone. it was just me who was closed to it. and i knew that. i just didn't know how to open again.
then it finally dawned on me AGAIN that what i needed to do was not take the lazy way out but to face the music and get on with already.
because evolving and changing is sometimes hard, and a pain in the ass, it requires 2 u make decisions u don't want to make, to think thoughts u don't want to think, to actually walk the walk instead of talking the talk. it requires that u CHANGE. and change is sometimes a huge PAIN in the ass. it's like, god, can i just start my long involved quest of transformation AFTER seinfeld and after i finish this drink?
we all want to change..but to make that effort can take small steps each day. u just have to make your mind to do it. that's all. you just have to start NOW. if not now, then when? etc.

there is no special day to start. angels aren't there to come down and save you your responsibility. it requires YOUR effort to get the process going. if u don't like your life or whatever, u just have to start somewhere, anywhere..right now. ya, right in the middle of u standing in line at 7-11

so it was just another grey day...i could have spent it watching tv...and there IS the time and place for that. we all need time to recharge our batteries, but sometimes we say we are gonna do that..go home..and vedge, but we don't plug ourselves into the frickin recharger machine. we think something will come down and pick us out of our sloth and plug it in for us...like when u are too tired to get out of the bed to pee.
u can take the easy way out and just pee in your bed and u will feel immediately great for a short period of time...until it gets cold and stinks..and then u have to get up and wash everything totally dismantling the bed and then u get no sleep. ( no i do not pee my bed, that was an analogy )

anyway, that's where i was. i did need to recharge my batteries, but i went about it in the wrong way. instead of taking the effort to visualize peace or meditate or do something concretely good for me, i'd have a glass of wine. as there months passed the wine increased, which made me foggy to my spirituality. there is nothing wrong with a glass of wine or even a whole bottle once in awhile. but i veering towards a lazy slothful path. i wasn't working to improve my life anymore. i was just trying to get through it any way i could.

but sometimes i go to these extremes to get me back on track. i just didn't want to face the fact that it was time for the vacation to end and it was time to go back into a doing stuff phase. i was like laying on the beach with a margarita passed out in the sand. time to get on a plane and fly home and kick my ass.

thing is. everyone is such an individual..each moment is so individual ..that there are no clear rules about how to go about things in life.
thankfully...when i cross the path into an imbalance, i have the ability to make my way through these processed and get back on track. and all i did go through WAS necessary for my evolvement. i learned a lot.

this was a lesson in responsibility for me. and i have begun to face this now. and when i write about this, you do not know exactly what i am talking about. because there is a lot in my life u don't see. i don't think i need to go into detail about it all...or perhaps i just don't want to, because i am still pretty embarrassed by my behavior.
behaviors that were only a few days in length here and there, of nothing terrible, just stupid things i did that all added up finally into , " enough already! wake up! get some coffee and get going! "

so i did...first i had to realize it..then as i did , that didn't make me immediately change...but i didn't beat myself up about it. at least i TRIED not to. we all make mistakes. so slowly each day i'd try to start anew then slide back..then start anew then slide back, but each time i get better at starting anew..till now here i am at ANOTHER time of starting anew. but this one feels different.
i think i know now a lot more of my strengths and weaknesses. and each time i know more of myself...i feel more empathy for others...because i was seeing things in a way that i had never seen things. like being an irresponsible scared sloth ( fear led to being irresponsible and unable to know how to take action ), which i never had been before in that way. things are not so cut and dry. each day i have a new insight into things as the pieces of my history fall together. as my family speaks up and tells me things they've never told me before or look back into my old journals...
i weave together what i can to make a basket to help me get all this water out of my boat so i can move on and not sink. and not blame the water for my troubles.
actually, that last sentence i have no idea what that means..it just felt cool to say :)

anyway...as i get the "unspiritual" things in my life done ( cleaning, bills, exercising, etc ) i am finding that this process has opened me up to my spirituality again. to my core..i have found it again.

i always seem to i have to keep losing myself to find myself again and then get these insights and go DUH! i already knew that! but each time is not the same, each time i go about it wiser...like in the movie "groundhog day" where he keeps having the same day over and over until he gets it right.
MAN< i wish that movie was in tv right now!

it's nice to have the illusion of time being broken up into days so it makes us more aware that every day we can start it anew if we choose.

anyway...here is the dream that i now know what it was about...it will probably be of be use to u except here as a curiosity. i include it cause this is my journal, and this is where i document things for myself :)

-------
oh wow, i just had another glimpse into my dream. in my dream, my best friend carolyn is just totally fine, talking to about 15 friends in publicly very calmly then all of a sudden in mid sentence she projectile vomited 4 times ( for some reason this means 2 me the 4 directions ) . my biggest fear..vomiting in public. i didn't watch , i closed my eyes and could only hear it. it was more vomit than i have EVER seen , or that anyone has ever seen. then after she did this immediately fell to the ground and started having a seizure. wait maybe she vomited 3 times then the the seizure was the fourth THING to happen. one of those.

everyone was beyond shocked and overwhelmed by it. so much that we just stood there as she shook on the ground and all the people were just covered in vomit and completely MORE than grossed out. and we were just so in shock because there was no warning. it was this perfectly nice end to a day in a park event type atmosphere, and it was fall. leaves on the ground. we were all standing at a corner ( another good symbol )
it took a few minutes or seconds before anyone even dared to touch her, and even more until i finally said "someone call 911!"
and then her lesbian lover could not bear to help carolyn out because she felt she was on the verge of passing out.

i knew that i most certainly would lose it and throw up if i opened my eyes.so i was led over there to help her with my eyes still closed. i tried to pretend that the vomit was just what it WAS, food. i could smell what she had for lunch out of it sort of..i knew it HAD been something that was a healthy really yummy meal...i held a corked bottle in my hand with my eyes closed trying desperately to open it but my hands were so shaky i couldn't get the bottle open. so her lover, who was on the verge of fainting...had 2 gather up all her strength and not faint and get that bottle open.
i was led away as i just couldn't handle it. then i wondered if her girlfriend would think the reason i couldn't open the bottle was because i had known carolyn for almost all my life and so i was too close to her...so i was more bothered by what had happened..more shook..so that's why i couldn't get the bottle open, and resented me a bit about this. whereas her girlfriend had only known her a short time compared to me, and so could somehow divorce herself from carolyn in her mind and get the bottle open.

i thought either as i was being taken away in the dream, or right when i awoke from the dream that, " damn, carolyn should had a lot of toxins in her body that she immediately had to get of in a major way!" and i was so worried about her and so shocked.

----
all day i've had this feeling that maybe i should call carolyn and see if she is ok, until i finally realized that carolyn symbolized me in my dream. and then *I* was me in my dream, and carolyn's girlfriend symbolized my boyfriend in awake life, jason.
and carolyn , in real life, has no girlfriend, she has a boyfriend

carolyn is the one person i trust most in the world and feel safest with. interesting that i picked her as a par of myself. perhaps the part in me that i trust the most was being poisoned...carolyn, the person i know who would always be there to take care of me in an emergency...is now the one needing immediate care. and couldn't even help myself. i had to keep my eyes closed and had to be led away in confusion.

at least i was the one who told people to call 911 on myself as jason took care of me, even tho he was fully on the verge of fainting...he came through and was the one who could deal with the emergency best

the throwing up represents that the part of me that i trust the most and the part of me that cares for me had been poisoned. a wake up call. the symbol ofmy inner guide immediately getting rid of poisons in my spirit to save my life

standing on the corner during fall is pretty obvious sign of a time of things ending and a time to make decisions about which road to cross.

ok, something else just hit me...i say to write down EVERY detail about dreams because the little things are essential. as i was writing that it ocurred to me that i had hesitated in adding that i thought the food she had eaten was something that had been healthy and good ( knowing carolyn cause she is a health worker and profession massage therapist)


so, carolyn/i threw up healthy food and what i was trying to help her with is to open a bottle of champagne for emergency medical treatment. interesting.

that right there is an essential detail of the dream.
ok, i thinkni know what that means now..i have reread it.

carolyn throwing up healthy food then me not being able to watch that and going over there with my eyes closed trying to pretend that the vomit wasn't vomit but that it was actually a healthy soup or something..because it HAD been a health SOMETHING..i was trying to visualize that to get myself through to help me not throw up so i could help her...
but i could not keep up that visualization so i had to give up and turn away.

what i think this means is that i didn't want to face the fact that i was TRYING to get myself healthy..but the caretaker person's body that is carolyns' s ( but symbolizes mine ) was so off whack that it could not even digest the healthy food...it was repulsed by it and was so screwy it thought the healthy thing was poison was rejecting it at a biological level...i didn't want to face this fact that the food had been rejected and that the body system was making no sense..i tried to pretend the vomit wasn't vomit but was still healthy food by closing my eyes and and tried to open up a bottle of champagne that symbolizes something that will help in an emergency to help her.
but i could not trick myself into thinking that vomit was some still yummy healthy food by closing my eyes and visualizing it as such. it was indeed vomit, and i couldn't deal with it.

thing is too that in my dream it wasn't my idea to go get her a bottle of something for medicine. i didn't even know what it was , in my dream. it was there in my hands in the dream and i just started opening it cause i thought that was what i was supposed to do...i was too confused to question anything, i was just shaking

ok, now after all this talk of vomit and chapmagne and food i will make this disclaimer and tell u that this was only one dream, about one aspect of my life this month.
i am not bulemic
or alcoholic!

these are symbols in a dream.

moral of the story: u cannot go about denying that something is wrong with your life by numbing it, sooner or later if u don't do face up to it..the universe/your "higher" self, your inner core, your soul, etc etc will make u face it by projectile vomiting all over your friends.
there is going to be no special convenient time to start to face the music and get going with it just as there is going to be no special convenient time
when the breakdown happens and it all catches up to u right then and there.

[17 Jan 2001|08:01pm]
i got so much done today altho i have nothing 2 show for it. i talked on the phone with jennifer and jodi and had a GREAT conversation that was very uplifting :) and i had a great talk with my mom...not a deep talk...but a nice talk...she really digs the mannequin i gave her, and i told her i'm cleaning my house and she was like , " i'm so PROUD of you!" and i'm like, " mom, i KNOW when my house it not clean and how 2 clean it!" lol!
and i made some other phone calls that were biz related and paid off a bill that was hanging over my head.
and having fun icqing w/marcoo and maw and sitting in the chatroom and have an explosively creative discussion with terri s. and stacy p :)
and cyka stopped by and cera was in there, too..i'm just getting 2 know her :)
it was a marvelous conversational day full of ideas and we're all getting riled up to be creative and it feeeels sooo gooood :)
i have the best friends!

then i went 2 get food...i was down to eating cream cheese icing! ack!

now i am going 2 stretch as i watch mtv count down the 100 greatest albums of all time and whoofle with the puppy bellies :) after that, who knows?

[18 Jan 2001|11:44am]
ok, a new day. ran with the dogs in the hallway. i cannot run much without getting out of breath! but today i could run more than yesaterday, so that's cool. i glad we have hallways i can run in. now i'm going to stretch and then dance. then...i don't know...but maybe this is the beginning of a schedule. and if so..i'll see if schedules help me. i know that whatever was the schedule for high school was NOT a good schedule for me. i never adapted to it.
it's not sunny today. it's grey. so i'm not as hyper as yesterday. i am also working on a new anagram that i'll get done today. i did a lot more this morning..but that's really boring details..took a vitamin, etc. i can't wait until my body gets back into shape. i browse through the campix i capture of ana2 and anacam and go, " that's ME?"
but at least i am not crumbling over it anymore or hiding....i know it doesn't have to be this way. and i know that my my birthday ( april 18 ), things should be pretty much back to how i like them...my hair included. GOD, my haircut i gave myself is so awful, i should have never done that. but how many times have i said that? a lot :) ilike 2 fuck with my hair. with each hair triumph there are many hair disasters!
stacy from atomcam.com said she was gonna dye her hair back to pink...so i gotta see if she did :)
i bought pink dye and i THOUGHT i wanted pink hair...but i don't..i want red. manic panic pillar box red. then my fingernails and toenails will match my hair :)


[18 Jan 2001|12:16pm]
ok, i made an appointment to go to planned parenthood to get on the pill again. because ikeep having my period a little bit all the time, and then when i get my full on period it lasts forever. and that sucks. i'm sick of it.
i am sad to go back on becauyse it took SO much pain to get OFF the pill. but i'm sick of having my period all the tme and i'm sick of condoms.
i'm all bloated up so i'm drinking water with lemon in it. a waiter at red lobster gave me that tip. he said it's a great diretic ( sp? ) :) so i hope he is right!

now i'm gonna go dance and stretch


[18 Jan 2001|01:40pm]
had 2 reboot mt computer. i am half dancing, half cleaning,or half chatting in irc.galaxynet.org #anacam, or icqing or making sure the dogs don't get into trouble.
i removed the fence from around my desk but it's still around jason's. i wanna organize that part. plus i'm really sick of having to jump over that fence to get to my computer.

made coffee. listening 2 commercial r&b...so sue me

i gotta take the fan out of my other computer so i can get that thing 2 werk again.

tomrrow night jason gets home!
with both agreed it was good to have a break from each other for awhile. still, i miss him and can't wait until he's back and we can all snuggle :) and i wanna clean more so he'll be all surprised when he gets home :)
