So a little update on the dream front. I'm no longer working for a criminal organization. After my boss stabbed me with his poison hook and then was subsequently defeated by Straw Hat Luffy, Straw Hat saved me and I more or less invited myself onto his crew. He of course had no problems with it, but the rest of the crew was suspicious of me. They, of course have good reason. I was their enemy until just a few days prior. Convincing them to let me stay was surprisingly easy, however. All I had to do was buy off the Navigator with a small bag of jewels I'd taken with me from Baroque Works and charm the Doctor and the Long Nosed Sharpshooter. The Cook...well, all I had to do was be a girl, apparently. He practically fell all over himself to bring me coffee and some cakes.

The Swordsman is another story. He isn't nearly as easy to persuade. He follows his captain's orders, but I can tell he doesn't trust me. He's a tough one to crack.

At any rate, we've come to port called Mock Town and have heard stories about a fascinating place called Sky Island. It, just like its name implies, is in the sky!! Our adventure seeking captain wants nothing more than to go there. While we were in town and Straw Hat, Miss Navigator and the Swordsman were looking for more information (and apparently getting beaten up for some reason), I was able to find a map of the island. It's real! Oh, I can't wait to go there!

My dream self is not fond of pirates.

Happy Veteran's Day to all members of the military. You all are amazing and I know your country appreciates everything that you have done for them. It's certainly no different for the British Military. This is also a day to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice and those that are POW and MIA.

On a side note, I really love how into honor your Veterans this country is because there is seriously no shortage of people offering things to military members. Even small things like a free cup of coffee can make someone's day better.

Ramen noodles covered in soy sauce have become my favorite new on the go food.

I really need to start eating food that won't one day grant me a horrible sodium induced death.

But so yummy, crappy food.

Well, I finally got something from my dreams. I woke up today to find the opera ghost's mask on the pillow next to me. It's kind of freaky to wake up to something like that.

I think I can confidently say now that the scariest thing, by far, is when your dreams start following a path you'd hoped you'd never come across again.

This feels like a Wednesday made for drinking.

I'll be doing an impromptu shopping trip tomorrow. I came across this by chance and, oh my God, pistachio milk. And pistachio butter. And pecans.

I've made peanut butter before but this is infinitely better. Everyone's getting butters for Christmas.
