Sometimes I feel like the dreams make us grow old too fast. And I just don't mean we kids, I mean all of us. I know my father's been sleeping poorly, and sometimes I think the lines in his face are more pronounced after he has those dreams.

Have we ever thought about just having a big party? Just renting a huge space so we can all dance and complain at the same time? I'm sure it's a terrible idea, but I don't know. Just putting it out there.

What do you get a girl you rather fancy but aren't incredibly close to? I'd like the gift to say 'you're lovely, would you like to go on a date?' and less 'please love me creepy stalker alert'.

I'm also dreaming more as well. I dreamed I met the earliest buried man in England, so that was ... a bit weird.

Nessie tried solid foods for the first time today. I don't think she liked them. Then again, who WOULD like something as disgusting as mashed carrots?

I'm taking you out for a nice dinner tonight, love. You deserve it.

Be here at five for babysitting duties.

Got my letter today to remind me to register as a returning student for Creekside high for my Senior year. Man, this summer has flown by. I took a class for advanced swimming, got my certificate, was swapped into someone else's body, fought aliens, and generally had a really crazy time.

And now in less than a month, I start my senior year, with just three classes a day. This is going to be an interesting year.

It appears that I am your reigning oil wrestling champion, Valarnet.

I accept offerings in the form of good coffee, fruit loops, and milkshakes.

Just nothing with coconuts. I'm already sick of the smell and I'm going to smell like a tropical island for at least another month.

This all feels so weird. I wish there was something we could do for Elena, Katherine and Jeremy, but nothing is going to take away the pain of losing their parents. I hope they find the scum sucking asshole who did this to them and fry his ass.

Should we bring anything to the funeral or to the wake? I've never had to do something like this before.

This has made me realize though that....no matter how angry I am at mom and dad for everything they've done, I'd still be destroyed if I lost them. I'd go insane if anything happened to any of you though.

I love you guys.

School picks back up shortly. I'm rather excited to begin my classes anew, although I am not sure how I feel about a few of them. I am, however, extremely glad to be back to a regular routine. It's not that I don't enjoy my trips to see my Father, but he is my father, and generally a wee bit overbearing.

In other news, I figure I should share this here, I have my first fight coming up. I'm anxious about it, but it'll be exciting. Although the dieting before hand is a little saddening, I am a girl who loves her pasta.

As a tall man (6 ft 7in) I've always had some mild difficulty in certain aspects of my life. I flatter myself that I carry my height well, but still, there are issues. A lifetime of stooping has given rise to some back problems as of late, and I dislike taking medication such as painkillers. Perhaps this makes me something of a hypocrite, being a doctor myself.

Does anyone else have difficulties relating to their height? Just out of mild interest.

You know, I didn't expect the UCI library to be quite so haunted. I suppose this area really was built on devious doings, like they say.
