Bed rest isn't as fun as one would think it is. But I'm making it work by also working at the same time. I don't think my doctor intended for me to have meetings on the phone while in bed and working my normal hours, but I'm going to. I can't just sit around the house doing nothing until the twins decide to make their appearance in the world.

I must also say that eloping was probably the best thing in the world. The stress of planning a wedding is lifted off my shoulders and I can slowly make plans for a real wedding and not have to worry about anything. My last name is changed and the twins will have Anakin as their father on the birth certificate and that's all I really care about. But I must admit I'm excited for a real wedding in the future so I can wear my dream gown.

But I do have to say I'm really missing being able to have a pumpkin spice latte.

I was aware I'd put on a few pounds, but after getting on the scale just now... let's just say I'll be starting up a morning jogging routine. Maybe an evening one, as well.

And should definitely keep the donut shop off the route.

Woke up the other morning and my hospital room looks like someone bought out a toy store and nailed every single stuffed animal in it to my walls. The nurses are havin' a field day with that.

Do you have any idea how someone reacts to something like this when they're on the dose of morphine they're keepin' me on? Who the hell did this. Yesterday I swear to god some of these bears were talking to me. I'm gonna have stuffed animal related nightmares for a week.

Have I made the right decision to hang up my spurs? A lot of the news today was difficult to... well, I wouldn't say ignore. I can't ignore it any more than I can ignore the stories coming out of the Middle East. These ones are closer to home. But I made a decision to help in other ways. It may take some time before I cease to second guess myself.

Then again, what's new about that?

Okay so I go into the bathroom, and one of the cats is on the toilet. Doing his thing. And he looks at me, and I look at him, and then he flushed the fucking toilet and trots out like he's king of the world.

What the actual fuck?

A slightly belated but still very happy birthday to the late Peter O'Toole is in order. He would have been eighty-two, on August 2nd.

I think that means I'm watching Lawrence of Arabia tonight.

Wow. I can't believe there's 100 days left in my pregnancy. I feel like it should be over much sooner than that since I feel like I'm about to explode. I'm really not sure if my stomach is going to continue to grow, but it's already so gigantic. Twins are definitely a handful, but I can finally feel them kick and such and it just takes my breath away.

I'm excited though because I'm going home to Oregon this weekend for my first baby shower. I have to get it done before I can't fly anymore. I'll probably have another one here in the OC a little further down the road, but I'm so excited about this one.

I totally forgot to post this! But we have two new furry members to the Salvatore household. We went to the shelter the other week and these two were too adorable to pass up on. Natalia is completely enamored with them and keeps dragging them around the house with her. They are such good kitties and put up with it.

This afternoon, my coffee came with a phone number scrawled beneath my name. It wasn't my number, but it took me a full minute to realize it belonged to the barista. And it took me another full minute to realize why. I'm getting old. My birthday is coming up, actually.

Needless to say, I didn't take her up on it, but I told her I was flattered. Why am I writing about this? I suppose I was surprised, that's all. She had to be in her early twenties. But I think that when you lose someone, it comes as a shock when little things remind you that you are still alive. But on some level, it made my day. I think that's good.

Hey yeah so you guys. Remember when you were little and there was that urban legend about dying for real if you die in your dreams? And you almost believed it because you always managed to wake yourself up right before you actually died in your dreams, just in the nick of time?

HAHA! Good times!! Simpler times!

Now, I don't mind keeping things neat, but the fact is I already do a good job of that. Why this phantom organizer felt it was necessary to come to my aid is beyond me.

Furthermore, everything may be nicely folded, but nothing is in the proper drawer. It makes no sense to fold pants. They are meant to be hung.

Just my opinion. But it's true.

Interesting dreams the last few nights (don't we start all posts like this around here?). There was a crying baby, and a school that was like a prison, and some truly horrific solitary confinement. But at least I didn't paint food pictures on the wall, a la a certain Netflix Original Series.

More interesting to note, though, is that I woke up with the lightsaber I had just dreamed about on my bedside table. So I guess special gifts from home (listen to me! From home.) is the newest side effect to regaining these memories. I have to admit, it did feel very natural holding it for real.

First the dreams, then the little...shall we call them "cognitive abilities," and now actual items?? Is there anything else I should be expecting??

It's been pretty quiet around here lately. Although I do hear a lot of noise coming from where Obi-Wan's workshop is, which is great. I am trying to resist the urge to get yet another animal to add to the pack we have going - Anakin keeps giving me dirty looks when I snuggle with Artoo and let out that sigh of "I want another pet".

However, I did get to go find out the sex of the babies. We're going to be having one of each! Just like in my dreams, which is kind of freaking me out a little I'm super excited about that and I'm going to wait until the weekend to go looking around for some clothing ideas and maybe put together a baby registry at a few places. My mother has been hounding me to do it.

I hope this isn't as strange a question as it seems to me, but. Have any of you ever dreamed about being romantically involved with someone, and then had them suddenly be here? And also maybe wanted to be romantically involved in real life? How do you know if it's just the influence from the dreams or if you genuinely have these feelings?

I'm feeling a bit lost right now thinking about it.

In about a week, Dani and I are going to be taking a long trip. When we get back we'll be settling in a new house in Vancouver. It's exciting, and a little terrifying, but the Ranch will be in good hands with Summers.

So I guess this'll be a goodbye.

I've found assisting at a local shelter to be a very healing experience. I've been able to pick up my tools again. I no longer feel sick at the smell of sawdust and paint. Though it may be over for curry. There is a bit of light at the end of this tunnel.

Although I did run into an old friend the other day, and that has sent my head spinning.

I wonder if I might ultimately return to law. The idea has been bouncing about. I feel that I need a change. The people at the shelter know me as Ben, for example. I'm still not sure why that was what popped out of my mouth.

I think I've lost my phone. This is inconvenient. Also it's Cinco de mayo. Holidays with good food should basically always be celebrated.

I haven't had any odd dreams in a while. I'm not sure if this is concerning or a relief but it's making me paranoid of what's to come.

Hi, Valarnet! For you new people, I thought I should introduce myself. I'm Penelope Garcia (you can call me either name, I'll respond to either!) and I'm your resident tech goddess.

Also, I blatantly ship all of you. Whether you want me to or not. Sorry, not sorry.

SO. I'mma play lonely hearts here and help all you singles find people who're ready to mingle! Single folks, reply down here, and we'll get you mashed the hell up. It'll be scandalous fun!

Seriously, scandalous fun. )

Or send me cat gifs.

I'm bored waiting for my boyfriend to get off of work. :(

[Filtered Away from Chuck Charles]

I think I finally had one of those dreams everyone is talking about. No, I know I did and it wasn't just one. It was a few. I don't know why, but I can bring people back from the dead for one minute. If they stay alive longer than that someone else dies in their place. I first realized I could do it when I was eight and my dog got hit by a truck. Later that day my mother died and I brought her back, but then that night I found out that if I bring someone back then touch them again they die for good. I'm also a pie maker in the dreams, just like in real life. I also own a shop called The Pie Hole, so I suppose it was fate.

Like Chuck said, I brought her back to life cause she'd been murdered and I couldn't bring myself to touch her again, because I'd always had a crush on her, when we were kids. We lived across the street from each other and I also couldn't tell her that her father had died, because I brought my mother back to life. It's very complicated. Or maybe it's not, but I'm just making it that way. I don't know. Either way, my dream self can't tell her that. And I know she'll dream it eventually, but I can't tell her that in real life either. Not yet.

I think it's safe to say that my feelings for Chuck aren't just in the dreams.

Has anyone ever run a marathon? I came across the link for the Tinker Bell Half Marathon in Disneyland for next year and I was thinking that it might be kind of cool to do that, but I'd need to start training now even if it is a year away and wouldn't want to do it alone. Anyone interested in joining me? At least for training. Could always find a shorter, closer run to do before then.

Starting to think about names. I don't really have any close male relatives I'd name a boy after, so I've been thinking about my mates. I'd like to have at least one of the baby's names be for someone in my life. Though I think my son would get mocked endlessly at school if I agreed to name him Obi-wan or Zevran.

This has been a whirlwind of a month or so for Anakin and I. Sometimes you feel like things are starting to slow down and then wham! something else crazy has to happen. I guess that's the trade off of living here sometimes. My dreams have just been cycling for a while now even though I know what my next dreams are going to be about - the uneasy anticipation is killing me.

But anyway! Now it's time to let you all know about some big events that have recently happened since this is a network and I feel like sharing.

* I am now taking on a postion at Stark Industries in the Legal Department.

* Anakin and I have officially moved into a house.

* Anakin and I are engaged finally.

First a day of fighting darkspawn, then a dream of fighting droids. At least the darkspawn were a very straightforward sort of threat. Killing them didn't feel like murder. If the Jedi are are like family then what's it called when you behead your master's master's master? Great grand patricide? I'm sorry if it sounds like I'm being too flippant about it it's the only way I can think to deal with the fact that I was incited to essentially murder a former Jedi Master by someone I look up to as a father even though I knew before and after that it was wrong. There is a reason why Jedi don't kill their prisoners after all, mostly to keep us sane.

Oh, and if anyone is considering throwing Obi-wan over their shoulder and running an obstacle course, you'll find he's surprisingly light. You'd really be surprised how often I have had to carry him.

But anyway it ended as most of my missions seem to. I save the day, Obi-wan verbally abuses my droid and takes every opportunity to say something sarcastic or witty, and together we create billions of credits worth of property damage. And of course he makes me deal with the politicians but as much as I complain about it to him I'm secretly delighted as it's the first time I get to see my wife in about six or seven months. That's when the dream started to echo my real life, but that was the end of it for now. I can't hope but help it stays that happy for a little while longer.

Not sure if it was fighting all these darkspawn, but when I stole a quick nap I had a dream again. Like I think this was 'real' dream me and not any other dream mes, because it was picking up where I left off with dating Bobby. (blech)

So of course he loses his shit and turns Earth into a snowball. Great. You really know how to pick 'em, Pryde.

Back to the stabbing Darkspawn.

Ugh, I've been feeling a little run down this past week or so. I'm almost afraid that it's some sort of bug that's been going around. I thought working in a law firm would make it so I don't get sick as often since there's not as many people in our office. May be time to grab some extra vitamin c tablets.

So, thanks to being tired I took a few naps over the past couple days and apparently that's all I needed to jump back into my dreams. The winds are changing in my dream universe and I can't say I'm very pleased with how things are going. Apparently a pregnant Senator doesn't do as much as a non-pregnant Queen because I spend so much time just going to Senate meetings and I almost miss being out in the battle field, which is a weird thing to say. I don't want to keep having these dreams because I don't want the ending to come
