I cannot even begin to believe that this is a question my employees are asking, but NO. I will not close the restaurant or the clubs down just because you want to go see Infinity War this weekend. No, I don't care that you've waited ten years for this movie, you still have to work your shift or you wont have a job in the morning. No, I don't care that I'm being unfair.

Moved into a bigger place so my pup can run around in the yard. ( He's loving it. )

I can't believe it's been a month since we got the green light to make the season of my new show! Time has really flied while having fun!!

They've set a premiere date for the show, which is going to run over the summer. It's set to run Sunday evenings from May 27 until August! We're going to have a 13 episode season.

I hope you'll all love it! I want to have a big party when the first episode premieres! :)

I had a few minutes of sleep today without any dreams. At all. Not the dreams dreams, not regular dreams. Just sleep. It was in the library. I was studying, thought I'd rest my eyes for a second and fell asleep. When I woke up, there was a moment where I couldn't remember where I was. I guess it's because I've never slept in a library before. I wanted to run, hide from the windows and find Hannibal so he'd take me back to his basement. It was only for a moment, but the dreams still got to me without an actual dream.

I woke up this morning looking more like my dream self. I actually kind of like the pink streak in my hair, but the pink eyes might be a problem.

I can’t believe high school is almost over. It feels weird that after this summer, I’m not going back in fall. I’m still a little bummed I didn’t get into my first choice school, but I’ve gotten a few letters back from other colleges. I just need to choose which one to accept now and get back in touch with them.

[Tama]
I know it’s a little last minute, but since you didn’t do prom last year, I was hoping maybe you would like to come with me to mine this year? Maybe you can help me pick out a suit to rent?

Are we expecting another weird OC weather event that no one told me about? I went to three grocery stores, and every one of them was completely wiped out of white bread. Not just one brand, but the entire section. Even the store brands. I mean, I’m not that picky, but I live with two little girls (and a boyfriend) who won’t touch whole wheat bread, so that wasn’t really an option.

I didn’t really want to go to yet another store, so this week everyone’s getting wraps instead of sandwiches for their lunches.

I had Lucky Charms for breakfast, AND for lunch today. Because I'm an adult and I make my own decisions.

I love being able to make bad choices and not have to see my mother and sister's judgment around every corner.

Okay, so finally got some new dreams. My friends in my dreams are idiots - totally dicks - and decided to write a nice slur against Nancy on the movie theater marquee - classy. Nancy got upset and I let Jonathan keep punching me in the face because I really did deserve it. I finally laid into them and decided to go get Nancy back.

BAD IDEA. I walked to Jonathan's house and basically walked into the weirdest shit ever. Christmas lights everywhere, everyone going crazy over something, and Jonathan threatened to shoot me. THEN A MONSTER FELL FROM THE CEILING. SERIOUSLY- A REAL MONSTER. What the hell are these dreams?!

And my face is nicely bruised - thank god for the weekend.

How do you know if a dream of meeting someone was one of those dreams that people on here like to talk about so much?

Day off was spent in training. Eight hours of it. Tried to catch a nap, caught a Dream instead. Fuck you too, Dream. I was actually tired.

I just saw the most disgusting video. In China, there are people who take small turtles, fish and salamanders and seal them up in plastic pouches with water and some food and sell them as like keychains then when the animal dies you just throw it away. That has got to be one of the most horrible things I've ever heard.

Daddy came into town for the weekend to see how I was doing and we went out to eat at one of our favorite fifties style diners. Probably the most unhealthy food imaginable, but also some of the most amazing. While we’re sitting there trying to figure out what we’re getting we hear the woman at the table next to us asking the waitress what the healthiest thing on the menu is. I just sat there for like five minutes kind of trying to figure out why you’re going to come to a restaurant that has the phrase “It’s not healthy, it’s not fat free” as part of it’s slogan? The waitress steered her towards the house salad because that is literally the only...light option they have there. I enjoyed the look of horror on the woman’s face when I ordered a triple meat omelet with extra bacon and hashbrowns with cheese on them.

So my dreams are showing me...my parents are so much worse than some petty fucking crimelords. I saw them murder a girl. Them and their friends just murdered somebody not that much older than me. Talked about how it was a sacrifice to something and that was when we decided to book it. A part of me wishes we’d stayed longer to see if we couldn’t figure out what the hell happened, but majority rules or some shit like that. We head back up to the game room and that’s where we’re playing a game of Twister when our parents come up to... I guess see what we’re doing. And that’s where I woke up this morning. It's still playing on a loop in my head though. Has been all day. Maybe I'll go for another run

They finally announced the release date for my movie! August 31st. I can’t wait for the premiere! No red carpet but there’s still going to be a party and all of that for it!

[Private to Tyler]
Any chance we could work in some extra sessions in July and the first part of August to help me be in shape for it?

Getting shot sucks.

Last time I woke up with a nice new scar but none of the blood. This time I can barely move my shoulder.

I guess something like this was going to happen eventually.

No matter how long I live or how much I know I defeated him, Diablo's voice will always turn my blood as cold as ice. I could've done without that repeat dream, thanks. Guess that'll teach me to take a nap. Sometimes I think I hear him when I'm awake

I don't care what the doctor says, I need out of the hospital already or I'm going to go stir crazy. I have never been in this much pain before and chi-sucking isn't healing the wound much

It would appear that I've fallen in love in my dreams. I met a woman named Sage in the 12th Century and would sneak out to see her since some of my siblings did not approve of her social class. Status has definitely gone to their heads in the last hundred years. So, despite the fact that I dislike what I am, Sage and I want to be together forever so I've decided to turn her.

I don't know if I'd ever actually want to do something like that, in the waking world. Being a vampire is nothing like the movies and tv shows make it out to be.

There not enough words in any language for me to say just how wrong that dish is.

Well it seems Bast has smiled on me and decided to give me new dreams. I was disappointing they were not the ones from the first timeline I'd dreamt about, but it's nice to get to know what happens in the other timeline as well.

At first it was a bit confusing as I dreamt of the story Baba would tell of how Wakanda came to be: of the five tribes and the first king and Black Panther. How Wakanda was able to hide itself from the world and remain unconquered and grew in technological wonder while the world outside our borders raged at itself with wars and all sorts of human tragedies. I know the story by heart, but it was nice to dream of him telling it to me when I was young.

Then my dreams skipped ahead to a week after my father's death, and everything that happened with the Avengers and their internal conflict. I am travelling with Okoye, the head of my royal guard, and an old friend. We intercept some human traffickers, but it's more than just to save the victims - it's really about extracting Nakia - who apparently in this dream world is my ex-girlfriend and a secret agent for Wakanda. Why doens't Ororo exist It seems I needed her to be at the ceremony for when I will be crowned king. More for personal reasons than legitimate ones. It seems this ceremony is deeply traditional, and I am curious to see what it is like in the next dreams. Still it's painful not having Baba there. To go from burying him to taking his place so quickly is difficult.

It’s kind of hilarious. I’m just sitting here doing my laundry and studying. I’m only taking up two washers, and all the rest of them are free right now. Two people keep fighting over the same exact washer, because “It’s the bigger one”, taking the other’s clothes out and dropping them on the floor to put their own in and then leaving. The other one comes back, gets mad, and does the same. Mine will be dry before either of them make it through a wash cycle. Just. Use another machine. Or stay with your clothes?

I have to replace my entire bedroom set. And the carpet. And probably my front door because even though my dad’s tried to repair it I still don’t think I’m going to feel very safe sleeping there. Maybe I should just sell the house and get a fresh start all together

Well you see something new every day. Or at least I do. Leaving a site I was checking out for a client today, I got the joy of watching an old man drive his car directly into the doors of a pharmacy. I’m guessing they either don’t take his insurance or didn’t have his prescription ready.

The worst part about moving so far is trying to get my crock-pot back from the neighbor. How do you forget that it wasn’t yours? I mean honestly. How? When you have to call someone to ask if they have one you can borrow - you can’t really expect the person who loaned it to you to believe that, right? The sad part is if she’d asked me flat out if she could have kept it - I’d probably have let her. I mean I have two after all and loaned her the one I don’t use very often, but kept just in case something happened and the other one got broken. I just don’t like being lied to and manipulated like I think she was trying to do.

THIS IS A BAD FORTUNE

( cut for sfw image )

Um, does anyone know how to fix a faucet? And a doorknob. I kind of broke them. I think it’s safe to say my super strength has crossed over. I’m currently writing this with the voice feature on my phone cause I’m afraid of breaking it. I’m so glad Alex isn’t home.

So I... I guess I've been here for over a semester now. Life here in California is so different than Seattle, and I think I'm never going to get used to this much sun. Or the random boughts of snow. I got some gorgeous photographs of it in December. It reminded me of this old snowglobe my friend used to have. That probably sounds kind of... stupid, really, but it does.

Life on my own is kind of okay, I guess, but I thought I'd love the freedom and instead I just keep missing my parents and their company. There's only so much space you can fill with tiny little squares of analog photographs. That's why I signed up here, so... hello, valar net. I'm Max... and I don't have any strange dreams to talk about. This place is pretty strange, but I guess you all know that already. I'm bad at this, so... what's your favorite photograph?

( OH MY GOD IT'S A THING AND I NEED ONE )

Had another dream last night. They usually don't come so close together. My department was forced to play babysitter to some political powder keg. Unsurprisingly, said powder keg blew up. Literally. I was pretty sure it was D so I tracked him down, but by the time I found him that morning they'd found the actual suspect. I'm still not convinced D wasn't up to something. Dude's shady as fuck.

On the bright side, all my complaining finally paid off and D actually had some eggs and vegetables to give me for breakfast instead of the sweets he's normally got lying around. The eggs were kinda weird, but not too bad.

I couldn't resist and she's going to kill me.

This one happened to me a while ago but I didn’t want to say anything about it until I’d gotten all of the fallout dealt with as much as I could. Worst fucking Valentines Day wakeup ever So I died in the dreams. No big shock there when you’re dreaming about a town full of and run by vampires right? It doesn’t end there though.

Somehow my house in the Dreams saved my soul? Not sure how that works but all I know is I came back that night as a ghost. Not a see through one - real physical body, which would be awesome if it weren’t for the fact that if I try to step out my front door, I feel myself getting pulled to someplace else. So I’m trapped in the house and have to relive my death at sunrise. The pain of it at least.

And it crossed over to here. The ghost part and not being able to leave my house. Which means until something happens - I can’t perform. The guys are loving the extra downtime and all but I’m not used to just staying all the time. I’d probably go nuts if it weren’t for Kat

I don’t know how but I think that bitch Julia had something to do with Quentin ending up in a coma I guess I really should be more careful about the spells I use since there’s at least one that can put someone in an unbreakable coma, if what the Dean said is right about it being caused by magic. It took some work, and some kind of bug I think, to bring him out of it but it happened.

Yeah, I should have seen that coming. Guess some people are meant to die. Couldn't save her there, either. And this time, I take the blame while the Empress's killers are free and Emily is in danger.



Great timing on getting fired too

Last night was... not okay, and this morning was worse. I thought I was brave when I left my father's shadow to come here, and I thought I could have courage when I decided to switch genres. But I don't know if I have the bravery to handle what the dreams are showing me, or the things I'm facing now here in reality.

The Elizabeth in the dreams is so naive and impressionable, but what is she becoming? Who will I be when this is all over?

And then I had to fire the only person in my life I really trusted. Go ahead and write an article about that, Rita. We're waiting.

OOC Edit: there will likely be some discussion of murder/blood in the comments

I was told that this website is a good way to get to know people here, but so far all I see is a lot of oversharing about Dreams. Is this a California thing or something? There, I posted. Happy Logan?

So, what? You come here to talk about your little dreams, commiserate about how awful your lives are.

Please. I’ve got stories that would give you nightmares.

So I'm gonna make this official. I'm alterin' my practice a bit.

If you gots Dreams an' you need someone to talk to, I'm your girl! If you ain't got cash, just pay me in donuts, I figure I oughta pay it forward. I'll even sign off on your meds if ya need 'em!

Pretty sure bikini season is over for me forever. But then so are the dreams. Or at least I think they are. I hope they are

Okay. I don’t care if it is going to eat up most of my savings, I can’t stay in this house one more night. I’m renting a room here, I’ve gone along with everything the landlord’s asked as far as how the public areas of the house are kept, it’s his home. But when I come home and he’s gone into my room and rearranged my personal things to “make it easier” for me to find them... that’s way past the line of what I’m comfortable with.

[Audrey]
I’m going to be late to work tomorrow. I’ll try to keep apartment hunting to my days off though.

I’m so over my dreams picking up where the last one left off. I guess I should be glad that I have friends there who won’t leave me behind to help me when I’ve just...been broken by everything we see but - I can live without the replays in dreamme’s memory each time. Trust me that’s an image I’m not going to forget anytime soon. I just wish that Mikasa had left me there like I wanted. I let her brother die. Connie shouldn’t have had to risk himself to get me back to safety.

Ziggy’s getting big enough now that he’s figured out it’s not so easy for me to pick him up and put him down when he’s in my lap, so he’s started to crawl into my lap for a nap when he knows I’m about to leave for classes. Not only is it hard to move out from under a 25 lb puppy, I also feel so guilty about it, too.

I wonder if that’s also part of his plan?

My dreams are filled with visions, lies, and half truths. It's so hard to pick out what to believe, or where the truth actually is.

Falling into that cavern was like swimming in the Dark Side. But it felt like relief. Like I'll finally find answers.

Why don't ants get sick? Cuz they have little anty-bodies!

Hey, got a second?

Does anyone know someone who needs some furniture? Or the best place to donate some to make sure it gets to someone who really needs it? I’m moving in with Amycus, so I won’t really need most of it anymore. It would just take up room. I’m taking my desk and chair, I like them and I’ll need a place to write, ...and my bookshelves are coming with me too. The rest I’m ready to pass along.

So I forgot to share with y'all that I found out what happened next after half my crew was about to mutiny. Someone blasted me from behind and shot out the fin in my head, which is why I woke up with it a while back all busted.

Well, in the dreams when I woke up, I was tied to a chair in my own ship and the half of my crew that turned against me decided to start executin' those who were still loyal to me. By sendin' em out of an airlock into space. Wasn't nothin' I could do about it but watch and feel sorry for myself I'd gotten my crew into this mess. All cuz I was soft on Quill.

Shittiest feeling in the world, watching good men die and being too broken to do much about it. I swear if Taserface were here right now, I wouldn't hesitate to beat the hell outta him and then put him full 'a holes with my Yaka arrow. Makes my blood boil that dumbass took over my crew and did what he done to 'em.

Sometimes this whole dream thing can backfire. Anyone ever have an experience of dreaming of other people, then you sit down to, say, watch a television show or something and you see someone who looks exactly like someone from your dreams but it's not and then that show is ruined for you? Yeah, totally had that experience.

I just spent an embarrassing amount of time looking at seeds online.

I'm getting sucked into my boyfriend's new hobby.

I may have overdone it with the Thin Mints this year. There's still a few hundred boxes in my office.

I can't decide if that's a win or a loss.

My daughter is as beautiful in the dreams as she is here.

And about as much of a troublemaker.
