I can't wait to take Liv to Australia. I can't remember the last time I travelled for something other than work. Then again, I can't really complain about all the travelling I had to do for work, given that my work generally involved a whole lot of partying. It's too bad that I probably won't be travelling for work again.

So, what's there to see in Australia? Other than all the deadly animals.

Not only did I have more dreams last night, but I got two gifts from my dreams. The first is a wristwatch that turns into a shield that my half brother, Tyson made for me. The shield is pretty cool cause it depicts scenes from our last quest. So now I have a pen that's really a sword and a watch that's really a shield. The second has to do with part of my more recent dreams.

So, after we got the prophecy, we had to decide who was going to go on the quest. One of the Hunters was going to go, but the Stoll brothers played a prank on her and she ended up in the infirmary. Nico wanted to go, but I had to promise him that I'd do everything in my power to protect Bianca while on the quest so he'd stay at camp. I also had another dream about Annabeth. This time Artemis took her place holding up the sky. A Titan called the General wanted Luke to kill Annabeth then, but he wanted to keep her alive. When I woke up, Blackjack, a Pegasus, was in my cabin and he asked me to save a Ophiotaurus, which is sort of like a sea cow. I named it Bessie even though I wasn't sure if it was a girl or not.

Our quest started at The Smithsonian where we found Dr. Thorne who pretty much confirmed that my dreams about Annabeth were true. He tried to kill Biance and Zoë by using dragon teeth and blood to create these skeleton warriors. Or course I ended up becoming their target instead, but I managed to escape using Annabeth's Yankees cap that makes the person wearing it invisible. I went to find the others, when we were attacked by the Nemean lion. Because, we don't deserve any down time or anything like that, right? I managed to outwit it using astronaut food and Zoë killed it then gave me its pelt. We had to try and lose the skeletons who were now disguised as security guards thanks to the Mist.

When I woke up, the lion pelt was on my bed. Not really sure what I'm going to do with it, but it's pretty cool. And it actually takes the form of a jacket when I wear it. It's not really my kind of jacket, but it's basically impervious.

It’s probably a bad sign that we just got back from Christmas holidays a couple of weeks ago and I’m already starting to count down to spring break isn’t it?

My dreams finally decided that it was time to veer off from my normal life. I honestly thought it would be worse, but it doesn't seem so bad so far. In fact, I woke up this morning under a mound of hair-dye and hot sauce! I'll never have to buy dye again. Not that I ever had to dye my hair before, but what can you do.

I think I've begun to have those dreams that I've heard so very much about. And here I was thinking that Killian was a bit mental when he'd been telling me about them. Sorry, mate.

So far they're not very interesting. They seem to be more or less be a rerun of my life. Though from what I've heard, I should be thankful for that.



In unrelated news, the small gig that Pocket Dial will be preforming is a go. We'll be playing at The Hanged Man on the 14th, and while our fan club members were of course the first to hear about it, I figured you lovely people could hear about it second. You could all probably use a break, if whatever I caught these last few days is the norm around here.

I'm unfortunately going to be out of town for whatever day it is where you talk like a pirate, however, the Jolly Roger has got a nice space for a fire pit - or really, it's a metal box filled with sand meant for grilling or heating preserved food. Nothing fancy but I quite think it's about time I had people over to see my beautiful love for a get-together on deck and under the stars.

She's in private dock space in Newport Beach - how about next Saturday, I'll just invite the whole bloody network. No boiled and salted leather or turtle's blood, but there will be lots of fish and other delicious things. Perhaps rum as well.

Someone else is quite ready for it too, mind you.

Red and black is my favourite piratical colour combination.

You ever have one of those days when you wake up and think "Wow, I really need to expand my social circle?" That was me last week. And clearly, I decided the best way to be more sociable was to sit behind my computer and talk to a bunch of strangers. This seems as good a place as any to do that.

So hi, I'm Lowell. I come from across the pond, enjoy scary movies, and long walks on the beach. One of those is a lie.

It's the walking. I hate walking. But put me on a beach with a cold drink and I'll be a happy man.
