Okay, being an underage boy is not fun. I feel like Chris Hanson's going to break into the house at any moment and ask me to have a seat. I'm anxious about using the bathroom, and it's not fun.

I learned that pigs are really, really fast today. I mean, they look lazy and stuff, but they can move if they want to.

Also, chickens are jerks. Which is why I picked up a bucket of fried chicken on the way home from work.

It's weird dreaming of that other world, and then remembering things that the other me did, as if they were my own memories. It feels... very... unreal, and yet... almost like they were just things I forgot. Sometimes, I feel like I should accept them, but sometimes... I get angry and I want to like... fight them. I just don't know how.

Only two more classes and my summer class is over. I can't wait for a two and a half week vacation. I took one week off work too.

I just woke up. At my desk.

I have been sleeping all day after a pot of coffee this morning.

I swear to God, when I find out who did it I will be setting up a goddamned guillotine.

Summer is going by too fast. Can we just live at the beach until school starts?

Dad, would you teach me how to drive? I know it's weird, and my birth certificate says I'm not old enough, and I don't really even want to drive yet, but you never know when I might need to know how.

Sometimes there's only one thing to do when you're faced with this world, all the crap in it, and see things continually getting worse for others as time keeps going on. Sometimes it's not the time to be totally selfish and keep the abilities the dreams have been giving me a secret anymore.

So I think this post is actually me offering help, seeing what I can do if anybody on this thing knows somewhere you can train abilities or where they're gonna be needed later on when something like those blue things crops up. I guess what I'm saying is that I'm an in actual place where I can help, and it's better I don't just hide in the corner whimpering anymore.

I guess in other words, like I said in my dreams, this is me standing up if anybody wants that still.

So I finally had a dream like lots of other people seem to have on here. It's not so different from my life, like my parents and uncles are the same but a one big thing is it's in a kind of medieval type of world. It's actually pretty cool!

But the best bit has to be that I'm a Princess! A real life proper princess because dad is the king.

So, I might have gone out last night and fought a couple of those things. I know I probably shouldn't have, but oh my god, the adrenaline rush was like nothing I've ever felt before. It was just like in my dreams, nothing could touch me. I was one step ahead. It was pretty amazing. Of course now I'm even more achey than when I'd spend twelve hours in the gym.

The Twins and I are having a huge party tomorrow... Consider this all your formal invites. Nothing fancy. All you have to do is just show up. All the Weasleys, honorary Weasleys and such are expected to be there. Everyone else is welcome to come too.

Be great if you could bring some things for the party too but you don't have to.

My mother rung me up and I had to remind her that no, I'm still not going to get married, even if I can marry 50% more of the population now.

Where is it Americans go on holiday but not bother with leaving the country?

Customs in this country can be dreadful.

Glad there's no school. I don't feel good today. Not sick, exactly, just...out of sorts. And no, it isn't PMS.

My summer class starts in a few days. I can barely believe it. I was so worried about leaving high school that I took a grad year. I've been looking over the reading list and think that it was a good idea to only take the one class. Already emailed the professor about some question I thought of when skimming through one of the books.

Good start? I think so.

Disney has now been ruined forever. You're welcome.

Happy birthday to me (and Katherine), happy birthday to me (and Katherine), happy birthday dear meeeeeeeeee (and Katherine), happy birthday to me (and Katherine)!

I know that's obnoxious but I couldn't help myself. I hope you'll all be coming to our party!

So I dream I had a dog, right? Mabari war hound. Really bloody smart, really strong, loyal and rip your enemy's throat out type. Can be really friendly if you're an ally. Seemed to have some kind of broship with our token Qunari.

So I woke up with a face full of slobber and some kind of dead bird as a gift, and Barkspawn just staring at me.

And then he asked how my day was and if he could find anything for me. I swear I haven't touched pot in a week.

And shut up, Barkspawn is a good name.

My stethoscope just decided to tell me how graceful my neck was and how happy it was to get to be draped around it. It... then went into the merits of getting to rest against my breast and carried on a conversation with my clipboard.

I... think I may have had too much coffee.

Oreo cookies are good for me because they make me drink milk.

The blue and my biotics are back. Goddess, I'd been worried...

I think it's time I started to get out more. Dig sites aren't exactly the most sociable of places, so...

France sucked. I got peed on by a poodle.

I miss them already. Beth and Alma and Elise. I know they're safer where they are, and I can 'skype' them, whatever that is, but it's not the same. Almost wish I could go with them, but I got a lot of kids I got to take care of here, too. The Ranch is too important.

Maybe next time I'll adopt a kid a little younger so I can hold on longer.

Being back to my normal age is definitely a good thing. I guess being stuck otherwise wasn't so bad for short time, but not knowing I would change back? That sucked.

Thanks to those who talked to me and helped. I really couldn't have gotten through without you.

That's one thing I love about this place. People come together and help each other, a lot. It's enough to renew a man's hope in the world.

I am so completely over having these dreams. Just had another and it was extremely long and I woke up completely exhausted. It was like I hadn't even slept the night before. I was extremely tempted to call into work. The dream started off really badly and eventually got better. Am I going to be fending for my life in all of these dreams? After all the shit that went down in that dream I could really use a stiff drink, ugh.

This dream stuff is just getting weirder and weirder, and the strange events that seems to crop up too. From diseases to robots to giant mushrooms and card men, it only gets odder.

And now I'm stuck like this? This really... ugh.

I only hope this passes fast.

It's been awhile since I made one of these things, but my theatre is going to do another string of plays this summer. We're doing my favorite (A Midsummer Night's Dream), as well as Othello, and then we're doing a rerun of my play Naked Humanity as a run up to a brand new play I've scripted, set to debut in August.

Oh. Alright. Well, that was interesting. Just woke up from a fresh crop of dreams. Haven't had a dream since the one where I met Gendry and that was like in March or something. At least now I know why I was dressed as a boy. Okay, so I still don't know why exactly. This guy, who was apparently from The Night's Watch, which is like a group of guys who protect the North or something, he was getting recruits and for some reason he cut my hair and told me to pretend I was a boy, which confirmed what I've been thinking and something bad happened, which is the only way I would have been separated from my father and sister. Anyway, Gendry stepped in when these two other boys were harassing me. Honestly, what kind of names are Lommy and Hot Pie? Come on now.

Let me ask a question, is it possible to actually kick a guy to death by kicking him in the nuts? I think Hot Pie was full of crap and trying to scare me, but the joke was on him when I pulled Needle on him. I thought he was going to cry.

Alright, I'm gonna try to get back to sleep now.

[Filtered to Gendry]
By the way, call me M'lady and I'll kick you in the nuts shins.

I have roommates. Two pretty awesome roommates actually. And a job over summer. Things are going well. Maybe I did make the right choice in moving here after all.

So how is everybody else's day going? As good as mine?

More dreams. Weird stuff. First we had to figure out how the ponies and the bison could live in peace (great song, Pinkie, by the way) then Fluttershy was trying to save a dying Phoenix.

God, these dreams are weird. Great, but weird.

My baby took some bird damage the other week. I've finally gotten around to fixing her tail and she's good as new, so I'll be taking her up later today on a test flight. She's a tough little plane. When I saw the damage it was a miracle I made it down in one piece!

Okay I might have cheated on the landing

Wouldn't you know it, stupid dreams, sometimes I just want to crawl under a rock and die
Maybe I should just stop sleeping. Then I wouldn't have to deal with this

There's not enough coffee in the world today.

I'm going to have a beach party on Friday evening before I leave town. Anybody want to join me? Say, around sunset?

Don't worry, I don't think I'm leaving for good. Just a little working vacation to kick off the summer.

I'm supposed to be attending a year or two of college here, instead of where I really want to be. I think that's complete idiocy, but I'm apparently not getting any money for school unless I do. They should be grateful I'm getting out of their house, not trying to trap me inside.

I cannot wait until I'm 18.

Someone fascinate me, while I finish the rest of these applications to Harvard and Yale.

So anybody know of any summer jobs available?

Only experience I have is in martial arts but I'm pretty sure I can turn my hand to anything.

Might also be looking for somewhere to live soon. Alec's couch is fine but he's cramping my style ;) Any recommendations would be great.

I may have severely overestimated my ability to plan things. But I'm going to try and actually, you know, put some organization into this Disney trip.

So! If you're planning on coming with us to Disneyland in the first week of June, please reply with your name and how many people are coming with you, and if you are willing to be a driver.

So that was weird. Go to sleep because you have a headache, toss and turn, and dream of being homeless and alone, parents dying horribly, and then becoming a superhero, given powers by a wizard. I don't know whether to think this is good, bad, or just plain weird.

Work is calling, and my headache is still trying to kill me.

So I've been saving up some money here and there because I have a mission, after the semester ends. And that mission is Disneyland.

I haven't been since I was a kid, and I really feel like it's time to go again. Would anyone be interested in carpooling there sometime in the next few weeks? It'd just be a day trip, because multi-day passes are way more than I can afford, but I think it could be a lot of fun to go with a group of people.

Anyone else in?

So I've been reliably informed that this is the place to introduce yourself so here goes.

I'm Isabelle Lightwood, some of you may know my brother Alec. I've recently transferred so I can keep an eye on him ;)

So yeah, I don't really know what else to say. I've never been very good at this kind of thing. I'm sure I'll get to know people as I settle in.

So. Daleks and Cybermen. Fascinating, really, even if the Kaleds were a little... well, I suppose 'interesting' works. Davros himself was quite a piece of work too.

I wonder what else these dreams have to offer.

Hi Everybody! I'm Myrcella. My mum's already posted on here but I thought I'd say Hi too!

We're here on extended vacation so I've been enrolled at school - it's going to be strange only having a few weeks of it before the holidays but I'm sure I will cope :D

Anyway I'm looking forward to making new friends!

It's funny how I didn't realize I wanted desperately to wake up until I did. And now I don't want to ever sleep again.

Rest in Peace, Cedric. Whoever you are.

It’s ostensibly marriage counseling, but really, it’s just an excuse for us to yell at each other with out the kids overhearing. Who knows, maybe the sheer hatred could respark the romance between us that once existed, for such a short while a long time ago.

It’s complete crap, of course. The only passion I feel for Robert is the passion necessary to wring his fat neck. Why any woman would voluntarily share his bed...

I did love him, once. It wasn’t entirely a marriage of convenience. It’s still convenient, at least until Tommen is old enough. Even then, it might be convenient to continue the charade, for awhile longer. It’s not like I lack for lovers. Especially my true love.

The above was deleted as soon as it was written

The counselor suggested I take the children on an extended vacation so I can keep an eye on Jaime so that Robert and I can have a chance to cool down after our latest fight. I suppose this is an intruduction.

I hear the wine country out here is marvelous.

In my dreams, I had a mushroom village. It was awesome.

And then Sjin and Lalna broke everything. :| my only regret is that I have boneitis.

Coffee.... Need coffee

The coffee at work suuuuuuucks

I can announce it here now, since it'll be online within hours after we just got out of the meeting, so, here goes my little announcement as to the fate of Boardwalk . Any of the fans out here will be relieved to know that we've been picked up for a second season, and will be adding new plots, a new main cast member and so much more. Our shocking finale is airing on Thursday night and you definitely wanna be there to see what's coming. Holly Go-Heavily has gotten herself into a bit of a jam and it's up to Myrtle, Mr. Wendell and Emilia to help her through. The results of their attempts will have some interesting repercussions.

To celebrate our successful premiere season, we were presented with this outside the meeting:

( click me )

That's actually cake, yeah. And I've actually got to get to work!

So, my sister told me that I should check this thing out. Although, I barely use facebook, so I can't promise that I'll actually use this thing a lot. Anyway, I'm Jeremy Gilbert and I can't wait for summer vacation.

I beg all the teenagers and pretty much anyone else out there, do not try eyeballing vodka or any other alcohol. It can burn your corneas and cause blindness. I don't even understand how this became a thing. Who thought that pouring vodka in your eye was a good idea?

I guess since the excitement of Mother's Day is over now, I can make my formal introductory post to this network. This is so much better than Facebook. I hate all those stupid game invites.

So, how's everyone doing on this fine Monday?

I've joined the ranks, I suppose.

The first dream was lovely, and so full of hope. And I knew these would be coming after but I didn't quite want to believe it.

But now they have and it wasn't lovely at all. So full of pain, and blood, and death.

I know there's more to come later because my friends all survived in my dream. It ended with us sitting there, waiting out the night. Trying to see what will come with the morning.

If it gets worse, I don't know that I can bear it.

Here's hoping the wedding goes smoothly this time.

Is everything okay?
