Being a female cop is challenging at times. It's not that I'm harassed or anything like that, just that some co-workers seem to underestimate me based on my sex.

Example: Shooting range. I was loading my gun, two guys were "joking" on if I could make my target. I ignored them, took my shots, and hit the heart two times, only made one hole.

I'm a sharpshooter, asshole.

Congrats, OC. It's a boy.

No, really. I have no idea how to introduce myself. I'm just...me.

Name's Harry. Made the move from Chicago to work as an ER nurse. I start July 19, which gives me almost two weeks to get settled.

Right, so. About me. I'm forever 29. I like long walks on the beach and building miniature models in my spare tme. Oh, and playing video games with my kidlet. She's 8, and more like me than I care to admit.

Is that good? I hope that's sufficient because I really don't know what else to say.

I've been craving s'mores recently cause I keep seeing various commercials with s'mores in them. Would it be crazy if I went out and bought a fire pit for my backyard just so I can have s'mores? I know I could make them on the stove, but that's no fun.

On behalf of Mercy's Clinic, I just want to thank everyone for not doing anything too crazy over the holiday weekend. I know we still have the actual holiday tomorrow, but it's nice not having an influx of barbecue inflicted wounds or anything like that. One year, when I was still working at a hospital, we had so many people coming in one Fourth of July, it was crazy. I've never quite understood why there are so many more injuries around holidays. I know it obviously has to do with people drinking more during the holidays, but still.

Wow, wow, wow, kiddos. So much dream talk here, not new, I know, not even for me, but intriguing all the same. Here I once thought I was this kid with an overactive imagination and this place has me thinking different.

What's the general consensus here on these dreams? Past life? Telepathic mind link with some version of yourself in a parallel universe? Just taking notes here.

It's only taken me five months to sort out the kinks and convince the landowners to let me buy use the land for my horses but I am officially opening my stables. We'll eventually run horse-riding lessons and group outings as well as letting people board their horses here if they want to. I really miss horses, so this'll be a nice place.

We're near a trail so anyone who wants to spend a nice day on horseback can come see me and I don't mind taking you out. I've got about a dozen horses so far and almost all of them are rideable.

Edit: Anyone who loves horses and knows a thing or two about them is welcome to come and work here, there's lots to do and only a small team (so far) doing it!

In my dreams, there's a place called Ahtohallan. It's a river of memories, but frozen. A glacier. It's where the voice that is calling to me is.

In order to get there I had to cross a storm swept sea, which meant fighting the spirit of water. A water horse that nearly drowned me. But I tamed it, and arrived in Ahtohallan and then something inside me shifted. Changed.

Inside the glacier were memories. Mine. My sister's. My family's. Somewhere in these memories is the answer to what happened to my kingdom and the forest and why the spirits are angry.

But that voice? Was my mother telling me the person I was looking for all along was me.

Nearly had a heart attack this morning. I thought that was Starkiller Base in the sky for a second. Not that the Death Star is any better.

This is nowhere near cool, OC. Knock it off.

Edit: Oh great, there are Stormtroopers now.

Somehow I am not surprised in the least that my first night back home resulted in a new dream. It does seem as though there will be some trouble ahead in them, though I believe I'm now rid of the biggest headache in them. I must admit that I missed them - most especially, I missed Temeraire. I find it truly remarkable how one can miss someone they've never met in real life.

So yes, I have returned from my recent deployment, and am glad to be back home. What have I missed in my absence?

DreamAlice is ridiculously dramatic I swear. I found out how tall the cake would make me - 9 feet tall which is great because now I can reach the key on top of the table! Except again I’m too big to get through it into the garden on the other side. Which leads to crying and causing a pool of tears to form around me that is four inches deep and spreads halfway down the hall which of course is when the White Rabbit shows back up only this time he’s dressed up with gloves and a fan talking about he’s late to meet the Duchess.

I tried to talk to him in a quiet voice to ask for help but he got scared and ran off, dropping his gloves and fan on the way out. And because clearly dreamAlice hasn’t learned anything about how it’s not smart to assume that anything here is normal or safe to use picks it up to use it because it’s warm in there. And while fanning herself comes to the conclusion that she must have turned into someone else because of all these changes she’s going through.

I guess I can’t claim to feel left out by not having any Dreams of my own anymore. That was a nightmare and a half. Nothing even that bad happened in it just a lot of shit got dropped on me as having already happened which I’m honestly glad I didn’t have to see. Like my mom dying in a fire at our apartment, not having any clue who my dad is, being homeless at 14 because they were gone. It wasn’t all bad though. My cousin Blitz was in my dream - he’s the one who tracked me down to let me know someone’s after me, passing out flyers with my name and face on it. Got to be the police right? That’s what I thought too and then I woke up to find one of the flyers on my pillow. This was definitely not put together by the cops.

Woke up this morning to find my prom dress, from the dreams, hanging on the back of my closet door. I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to do with it since it's clearly a prom dress and clearly from ten years ago. Has anyone else gotten clothes from their dreams that they just can't wear? What have you done with them?

This entire thing stopped being funny two days ago. It's bad enough that I'm forced to relive being younger in my Dreams now in my waking life I have to be a teenager again too? And not even a teenager who's old enough to apparently sign for my own damn packages when they're being delivered. No you cannot speak to my mother - she's in Australia. And even if she wasn't - she didn't order this and it wasn't her credit card.

I don't want to be 14 again.

I lay down for a nap and fall directly into a dream where I got my letter to Hogwarts, finally since I've known that's going to be a part of them for ages, and then went to Diagon Alley to get my school supplies. Including my wand which I did enjoy that part since I didn't choose my wand, it chose me which yes is a very weird sentence but a true one. When I woke up the wand was laying on my pillow and just having it here feels right somehow.

Two hands. I'd forgotten what it feels like.

I hardly know what to do with myself. Other than call in sick from work, because showing up with an extra hand might be odd.

Not entirely sure how I feel about this, to be honest.

As a veteran who runs a non-profit that helps vets and basically runs on donations, part of me thinks that anything that brings money in for our guys is a good thing.

It appears as though this is a popular forum with the locals, and I'm very interested to see what life here is like.

My name, since I feel that should be offered, is Vladimir. Vlad, if you would prefer. I work at the Romanian consulate out of Los Angeles. I tried to live there a few months. I think I find Orange County more charming. I do believe I may have some acquaintances here.

So I'm five days in to the next year of thirty-something and I already want to go back. I swear to god I actually FEEL old this time. I went to get out of bed and one of my knees actually creaked. It made an honest to god creaky noise, like it needed oil or something.

And yeah, you know how they say your body never really recovers from getting shot? A few of my old war wounds are getting pretty damned grouchy.

That's it. I want a do-over.

I've had more of the new dreams it seems..I'd been given a letter to deliver to the Captain of the Musketeers Monsieur de Treville, but a Man from Meung stole it while I was unconscious after the last fight. I went anyway to see him without the letter, but found you don't just ask to be a Musketeer. You have to be commissioned by the King.

During the interview I spotted the Man from Meung outside the window and tried to pursue. Instead I end up basically running into Athos who was already injured and injuring him more. Then interrupting Aramis with some handkerchief thing, and finally basically tripping on Porthos's cloak after making fun of his clothing. Anyway I pissed all three of them off, so challenged each one to back to back duels while being pretty damn sure I wasn't even going to survive the first. One at noon, the other at one, and the last at two.

I forgot what college classes were like. Kinda fun, actually, following Caroline around UCI today. (Thanks to my Sister-in-Law for watching Christina while I did.) Kinda thinking maybe I should go back to school. I've got some money saved up, and I get a monthly check from Christina's father to help cover her expenses... it seems like something I should do.

But what would I study? I have no idea.

Last night was bad.

So because I died that one time for about, oh, I don't know - five minutes? - they sent another slayer in town and she's a hoot. Spike and Drusilla tried to kill Angel, and that was a load of fun to stop. Second Slayer eventually went home after we became sorta friends so I can have my job back.

My dream-self had a crappy seventeenth birthday. And then Angel? Dream!vampire!boyfriend with the gypsy curse that's a good guy? Yeah, not anymore. The curse broke because we had sex and he reverted back to Angelus, and is now trying to kill all my friends. And then me.

On the bright side, I'm pretty sure I can work a military rocket launcher and those are oodles of fun.

I wish I could point at my dream-self and go, 'Nananana, I told you so.'

I've recently moved to the area and stumbled upon this place, and it seemed a good idea to join up. My name is Lance du Lac, just moved from London. They say America is the land of opportunity and so I'm here to test my own fortunes. I run my own private security firm. This is really the ideal place for it, I think, with so many parties and rising stars and the like. I'm rather looking forward to my time here.

How do you test to see if you're immortal if you heal really fast?

I wanna see how much damage I can take so I don't find out in an inconvenient situation.
