I've been hearing about these dreams for awhile now and I've finally had one of them. It's so weird but at least certain things stayed the same. Except Arthur. I'm not sure if he's a bigger brat now or in my dreams!

And it seems my Halloween worries have been for nothing. The magical dream fairies left me some fancy new clothes that will be perfect to wear for Halloween. They are quite pretty too even if the style is a bit out of date.

Apparently I have people convinced that I never have fun. I sometimes manage to find time in between the responsibilities of work and class and home. But to all of you who think I don't get out enough you will be happy to hear I won't be working on Halloween and I am even going to a party.

I'm letting the kids pick my costume this year.

This could end badly.

Well it was only a matter of time. All of us knew it was coming...

Locked Up Prisoner Costume

I don't dig stripes too much, but-

Bustin' Out Prisoner

I'm leaning towards the first, but thoughts?

Carol and I have decided to go as each other this year. It's cheating a little, but I'm lending her one of my suits, and she still has her old Ms. Marvel costume.

I just need to get a new blonde wig.

I finally had one of those dreams everyone keeps talking about. It was weird, so different from my ordinary life. I was British, I was still dating Rose and the worked in this shop that ended up getting blown up. She met this guy called The Doctor and I got kidnapped by this creature. It was all little scary, honestly. And then Rose went off with him, The Doctor. After we all nearly got killed because of him, she just left me to go off with a stranger.

Is this what they're all like? It took me a minute to even realize it was just a dream.

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.

Okay, I'm a sheep. Baaaah. Make your jokes now, peasants -- then help a guy out.

So, I'm not sure what in the Hell I'm doing for Halloween, but I do have three parties, so I can choose three costumes. So it makes total sense that I have so many to choose from, right?

Just agree with me, it's easier than arguing.

Should I be kinda sexy? Or.. a millionaire playboy? How about Dangle?

Or, if those don't do it for you.. there's always Rocky Horror! And Captain BDSM!

Then again, I could go with nerdy but awesome Samurai Darth. Or Ezio.

And, there's always the old standby of being comfortable in every-day wear: A suit.

((OOC - He's not part of the Halloween Plot, so he won't change into his costume!))

I had the weirdest dream last night. I was a baby and my mom was kissing me good night. Then there was this man with yellow eyes and he was.. feeding me his blood? Weird, right? Mom came in and there was a fire and Dad gave me to Dean - he was about 4, I guess. Mom died, killed by something.

And then suddenly it was years later and I was in college. I was with my girlfriend, we were at this Halloween party. Next thing I knew, I heard someone breaking into our apartment. It was Dean. Our dad had gone, uh, hunting, and he was missing. Somehow he talked me into going with him and that's when things got really weird. We found Dad's hotel room and there was all this stuff about monster, demons. A Woman in White. It was all like something out of a horror movie or something.

We never did find Dad, but Dean took me home, because I had a law school interview and then I found Jess. It was just like Mom. She was stuck to the ceiling and then there was a fire. The rest of it was weird, but seeing that part - that was just horrible.

So this is Valarnet, huh? I've heard about it, but I've never really tried it out until now.

So...how's it going, everyone? I'm BeatriceTris Prior. I'm a sophomore in high school. I like surfing on the weekends, and I do a lot of volunteer work with my family. I like trying new things, especially if they're exciting.

Ugh. That was lame.

Billy and I are dressing up as The Tin Man and Scarecrow for Halloween and we were wondering if there was anyone out there who would want to join us as Dorothy. We seem to have a lack of female friends who we can ask.

Oh my.

I was scrolling through facebook and saw an uberfact that said, "New Yorkers bite 10 times more people than sharks do worldwide."

I feel like I should be thankful that I never got bit by anyone when I lived in New York. Hopefully moving out here is a lot more mellow and I don't get bitten by sharks in the ocean either.

I had another dream last night. I was woken up in the middle of the night by a witch doing a spell to try and hurt Marcel and some other vampires cause I could feel it. Whatever caused me to know when a witch was doing a spell, it caused me to draw their picture, which was how we knew exactly who it was. I was worried about Marcel though cause I didn't know what had happened after I couldn't feel the witch anymore, but Marcel came back while I was leaning over Elijah's coffin and Marcel told me that he was going to give Elijah back to Klaus, but I refused to let him. I didn't want to let him give Elijah back until I knew how to kill the Old Ones, which is what I called them.

Before, it was Marcel that I didn't like in the dreams, but after this one, I don't like my dream self. I'm so full of hate, I could never be like that in real life.

Tonight will be my first night in Orange County and I thought I should introduce myself.

I'm Dr. Juliet Burke and I'll be here for a few months, working with the Orange County Sheriff's Office, as well as the surrounding Police Departments, the County Correctional Department, and I will also have office hours for any interested civilians.

I am a Psychiatrist with a specialization in traumatic events. I know that there have been many of those in this area, and have relocated temporarily to help where ever I'm needed. I also deal in Anger Management, Phobias, Night Terrors (and Dreams), as well as every-day occurrences.

Please don't hesitate to call [number], text, or message me here should you need any sort of assistance. I'm sure that this will be a wonderful experience for me, I hope to do some good during my stay.

I find I'm rather in need of a large Tesla coil. They are ever so useful.

I would build my own, but I haven't the space.

So the Irvine PD accepted my application and they got all my paperwork from New York. This decision's been a long time in the making, but between the dreams and missing the beat, I can't say I'm surprised I'm getting back into a uniform.

Mom was pissed though I wasn't coming home to be in the NYPD. Surprised she didn't block the paperwork or you know, set it on fire. She'll get over it.

I hope.

Now....to figure out what I'm wearin' for Halloween and where I'm gonna wear it to. Ideas?
