Sometimes I wonder if I took the right path. I hand patients off to doctors and nurses every day, and most of the time I have no idea what happens to them after that. Do they recover? Are they still in the hospital?

If I had chosen to become a doctor, I could continue to help the people that I see every day. It's so easy to get attached, even though I know some of these people for no longer than a few minutes.

But then I remember that paramedics save lives every day, and that heartens me. To know that I'm the first face they see, that I can provide some comfort to them. And to the people that are often with them, too. I remember that, and I think... I made the right choice, after all. I just wish I could do more.

Today while I was... getting the medical offices settled for the new clinic, I came across an oddity.

Not only did Dr. Hussain leave me a medical scanner so advanced that I'm really unsure how to use it without accidentally killing someone, but I have now come across a ... machina leg... of some kind. It's not any kind of prosthetic limb that I have ever seen before.

So strange!

I've made the decision to continue my residency at the clinic in Urdnot Ranch. I feel that the people there are desperate to keep a familiar face around, and the supervising doctor we found should be able to teach me everything I'd need to continue a specialization in Family Medicine.

I think, too, that that's what she'd want. Dr. Hussain. She'd want me to continue her work.

Hey, we made it all the way to mid-April without a bandsaw injury. Not half bad. And at least this year it was a backpack that took the damage, not a hand like it usually is.

I still don't get why shop class is even a fuckin' thing. Sure, let's take narcissistic tiny humans and give 'em saws. Good job, school district.

I came to a decision after helping to kill a huge sodding dragon some of the madness that goes on here - I would like to get back into proper archery. I'm rusty beyond belief and would like to brush up, and then go from there.

Once I heal - have probably another month of taking it easy after breaking some ribs - would anyone be willing to shoot with me or even serve as a tutor of sorts? I've shot for at least a decade of my life, but I am massively out of practice, so I'm not a beginner. More like a rusty intermediate.

Ugh. Gross mouthbreather guy at work found out that I'm single. I didn't know what to say when he was all HEY LET'S GO OUT and was breathing garlic on me so I sort of panicked and walked off. I didn't even say no, I just went AUGH and walked away.

... that counts as a no, right? I hope that counts as a no.

It's difficult being a designer who does custom orders. Someone wants me to make their wedding dress, and all their ideas are ... well, a bit hideous. This woman wants to look like a cupcake made of tulle on her special day. Hoop skirts should not be in weddings. I wonder if there's a nice way to say "no, I will not make this because then people will know I made it and my reputation will be ruined". Probably not.

That was certainly an experience, and an exhausting couple of days. I'm grateful to all of these people who fought by my side and kept the monsters at bay.

I am also very grateful I didn't have to... perform any sendings. I'm so happy to be back home with my new puppy and my cousin. I hope the rest of you are recovering and safe.

I'm curious. What is the longest anyone has gone here before they started dreaming? I've been here for quite a few months now and still haven't had anything aside from my normal dreams. My cousin had been dreaming since before I moved here and I see people constantly talking about their dreams and the things they get from them. I think, the longer I go without any makes me more and more curious about what mine will hold.

I thought when I came home that the dreams would pick up where they left off. I have to admit I was... looking forward to that. I wanted to see more of... everyone. More of him, too, if I'm honest.

But they're starting out from the beginning again, like a marathon of episodes before a new tv season. My mother's death, standing on the bridge and hearing the news that The Calm had come. My father... a high summoner, but I would only ever see his face again as a statue. I felt, and I think I still feel, like I wasn't allowed to be sad. His death brought about ten years of peace, ten years I got to enjoy. To grow up without Sin constantly attacking, to get the time to learn how to summon, myself. He wanted that for me more than anything.

The more I dream the more things I notice about that world. It's... interesting, at least.

So, this morning was entertaining. I woke up with what I can only call a contraction - but the baby is only 33 weeks. Not even eight months in. It hurt like a son of a bitch. I debated basically just sitting there, freaking out and hoping it'd wake up Logan.

But I got the phone, and I googled "early contractions." And it turns out there's something called Braxton Hicks contractions, which are basically practice for your uterus.

I'm incredibly relieved that's all it seemed to be, but I swear to God, I'm gonna be a little fucking uptight for the next month or so. I should probably find other moms to talk to - googling shit isn't the same.

I was very careful. Nose, mouth and eyes covered every time I went out but somehow I'm still coughing. At least it's over now. It is over, right? It's over. I will say though, the 'target practice' I got in this weekend was the most entertaining time I've had since I left the service. Now if I could just top coughing up ash I'd be set for the rest of the week.

I must admit, it's quite amusing to go through the various reactions to what's going on outside. Many people treat it like an every day occurrence while others, such as myself, are wide eyed and wondering what is happening! A normal thing to have strange things happen here. Part of me wonders what I've gotten myself into, moving here. Well, I will add another word of caution as everyone else has. Please be careful. Especially if you step outside. Not only are there strange things moving about but the air is terrible.

I saw an earlier post by your sister about your dog bringing in an arm of...something. I hope you and your family are doing alright at home and not going out!

How are you doing? I hope you're staying at home during these strange times. Although, I do find productive behavior to help release the stress from our current circumstances. Were you able to finish going through those stacks of worksheets you took home?

I've told the people closest to me about this, but now I feel I should let you all know, too. It's a little bit into the semester now, but I got into Harvard, and they're confident I can catch up if I get there before next week.

Everything's almost packed up now, aside from some furniture and appliances I won't need over there. But I was thinking of having a 'going away' party. I'd like to see some of the friends I've made here before I get on the plane.

Oh, also... before I forget! It's a small studio apartment, and the rent has never been that bad on it. I'm looking for someone to live there until my lease runs out. It's already paid through October.

I'm much younger in the dreams. I think... I'm not entirely sure, but I might be the youngest summoner ever to set out on a pilgrimage. To see a face so young and willing to face Sin must be such inspiration to the people of Spira. I often feel like that girl is bearing the weight of the entire world on her shoulders.

She is.

But she's also a liar. She's a manipulator, at times. She keeps her guardians only so close to her, a wall I greatly understand. As genuine as her emotions are for them, still, she lies. Keeps them away from the inner parts of her.

Worse, she lies to herself.

Don't say it isn't worth it, that's what she'd say to me. I don't know if I can agree.

I could never be a nurse. Between guarding Mrs. Summers and making the rounds of all the people I like in the hospital I'm exhausted every morning. Don't see how these ladies make a living of it. Especially the way Mrs. Summers some people act toward them. I mean, these poor people are just trying to do their job. It's not their fault anyone's here, but some people can get real bitchy for no reason.

I hope this is over soon. I'm not used to this much drama.

As I reported on my show last night, I've been reading an awful lot of reports of strange animal behaviours, instances of telepathy, and many other things!

I never expected that the first time I would feel emotions like this, it would come from inside a dream. Even though the dreams are... more lucid than any dream I've ever dreamt. Even though it feels like when I close my eyes, instead of sleeping I am actually being transported to another world where my other life awaits to unfold before me.

It never occurred to me that we would feel the things we feel in those dreams. That those feelings would follow us to our waking moments. But there is no Tidus here, so now I am in love with a ghost

I find that even though the journey I am on is not an easy one, these days I cannot wait to fall asleep. I want to see all of those faces again, I want to feel what she's feeling. I don't want it to fade away.

Being in this body... it's so very odd. Everyone at work had no idea who I was at first, and I had to get used to being so much taller. I've been... very ungraceful, too, which hasn't helped.

I accidentally dropped a paring knife when I was trying to cut up an apple, and I sliced my finger... or this person's finger... just a bit. I'm so sorry, Turin, Miss Yuriko. It's bandaged up neatly and wasn't that major of an injury, though.

I guess I dream. Like a lot of you. Been here a couple of years and I guess I finally caught the virus or whatever. It could be worse. Apparently. At least from what I can tell, today sucks for a lot of you.

I don't do things much differently in my dreams...different city, more oppressive. More dangerous. I'm better at it, I can take longer jumps. But blues are everywhere ready to shoot you. The things I transport are things we take for granted. Speech, religion. Even music. Anything that could make the populace rumble. Oh, things were safer, more secure. As long as you didn't think. And it clean. It was so clean, like the gloss on a mirror. It didn't make it better, not when the mirror looked back.

My sister got set up. We were on opposite sides, her a cop, me a runner. She got set up for some guy's murder. Just in the wrong place at the wrong time. A politician. One of those who might have done some good. Because of course we can't have those guys winning.

I woke up as I was escaping the blues that were swarming the place. She made me run. I'm good at running.

So I called Kate and we spoke for the first time in years.

It felt really good.
