I forgot how much I enjoy work. Definitely not the travel aspect, or even the long days, but just doing something. I missed it for sure.

And I've just found out how much Scooby hates when I work. My living room really suffered my missing our afternoon walk. Whoops?

At least I don't have anything overly valuable.

Well I officially made it to the kingdom in my Dreams we're not gonna talk about it being named Corona, nope and there was a huge celebration going on. It was so much fun! Dancing, some little girls braided my hair, flowers, food, and it was just so much fun. I'm actually kind of impressed with it and glad that the version of me in my dreams actually got to see what real human interaction is like.

The best part was in the evening Flynn took me out on a boat so we could see the floating lanterns on the water. I got chills watching all the lanterns float up from the kingdom. It was absolutely beautiful. and we're also not going to talk about that song full of feels

I kind of wish my sister was here. We could have so much fun and make up for so much... badness! It's so fun being a kid again!

Made it back home. If I can even call here home anymore. New York sort of became my home these past few years. But right point is I made it back to Orange County. What a time to return.

Since I can't really go anywhere social media is probably the best way for me to reconnect and meet people here.

I'm Caroline. I'm an event planner whenever that's needed again. I love shopping, the beach, getting my nails done - pretty much all things I can't do right now. So please keep me entertained :)

...anyone have any coffee? Or a place I can crash for a few hours?

In my dreams we did manage to reach the magical forest and find our way in past the impassable fog, but with no way back out until I can fix all of this.

My father once told us a story about the enchanted forest. That we'd built them a dam and we'd come together in peace. He'd been a child, but he said our people and the local people, the Northuldra, had fought, and his father was killed. Most of the Northuldra and some of our own soldiers have been trapped inside the fog for over thirty years. And they each believe the other started it.

But what startled me most was one of the Northuldra recognized our mother's shawl as belonging to one of their families.

Woke up to find my mother's shawl draped across me, and a book about magic she'd been translating propped up against the door.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. About any of it. So many secrets, so many lies and hidden truths. I feel like that defines my entire dream life and it makes me question where I really belong.

in the midst of recovering from my latest idiocy which happens to mean not doing more dumb shit.

looking for netflix recommendations so i don't pickle my liver instead.

By chance does anyone on the network, model?

I'm an designer and I have to do a small preview of my future line.


Figured I'd ask here before I go to an agency.

GUYYYYYYYYYYYYYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

MY DREAMS ARE ALSO A MUSICAL. OMG YESSSSSSSSSSSS.

So, I left my tower and then Flynn decided to take me to this place called The Snuggly Duckling, which is a pub filled with a lot of ruffians and thieves. Things were looking a little scary but THEN we started to sing a song about our dreams! One guy with a hook wants to be a pianist, there's a florist, an interior designer, a baker, and one guy collects tiny ceramic unicorns! IT WAS SO MUCH FUN! Of course they all became nice after we sang, but we had to run due to the palace guards coming after us.

That lead to a chase, a dam we have to escape, and getting trapped in a flooding cave. We were close to dying, but I was able to sing to light up my hair and find a way out. Who knew that leaving the tower would be so dangerous; all this just to see some lanterns (goodness).

So apparently listening to the voice calling to you leads to your entire kingdom being evacuated because the elements all went crazy.

And so the next logical thing is to go looking for a solution.

I don't think I could ignore that call even if I wanted to.

When the state of the world is a mess that impacts your job and it just so happens to also be National Chocolate Cake Day, so all the stress baking comes out...

( Cut for space, visible to all )

And this was after only two hours, and there are still plenty of more hours in the day to go along with the hits that just keep coming. Something tells me it will be gone before the end of the day at this rate.

I was told that this place was good for networking and socializing. I intended to see about potential job connections, but there seems to be quite some talk about dreams here. Though this is the internet, I suppose oversharing and such things are to be expected.

These dreams continue. I find myself reliving my childhood as I dream of another one. The similarities are unnerving.

My hatred towards my father only grows, and yet I find myself unable to do anything about it. This is frustrating.

I need something to let off steam. I am open to suggestions.

I do love coming home to casting emails. Gold star for Cathy Parr!

It seems the only person involved that I have no knowledge of outside of our meeting at call backs is our Aragon actress, but that's part of the fun, getting to know new people. What will be interesting and new though will be seeing how the script works out as it seems there are essentially four (well five but there's no access to the Broadway revisions) main scripts for Six and we'll just read through each one in the next two days and the final script with be Frankensteined from that based on the principle cast and what fits each of us best.

Taking the unexpected nature of live theatre where anything can happen to new levels.

I've realised that one way I deal with stress is through animal adoption. Most of my cats have come during high stress times in my life; death of a family member, moving, graduation. I cope by focusing on a small furry sweet thing that needs my help and attention.

So with that being said, someone needs to stop me from visiting animal shelters and adopting another cat. Because my own dreams have started up, and while they initially weren't anything to worry about, it seems they'll end quickly when myself and my group of friends visit a place that has killed everyone else that's entered it.

You'd think somewhere call the Den of Woe would be off putting enough.

Ever watch a television show and experience a gay awakening? I mean I already had that but I had another one watching The Witcher I'm pretty sure.

I keep hearing a voice in my dreams. If it wasn't for the fact my powers keep kind of... growing, I'd think I was going crazy.

I woke up and had to turn turn my bathroom into an ice rink just to let the power out.

But I really wanted to post because I made a new friend today. I'm calling him Olaf.

Do you have some time?

So, I'm starting to get used to my dreams, how there's no real continuity in them, no movement of time, I'm still around five and it feels like these events can't possibly all happen within a year. I just need to let that go and accept them all as small incidents and not some developing story like so many others seem to have.

This time, my sisters stuffed octopus started talking to her, and that's not too weird. Bubbles is the type that talks to anyone and she does have imaginary friends (we're five, of course she does). But it turned out to be one of our enemies, HIM, and Bubbles was manipulated into fighting us. Naturally, we stopped HIM and Bubbles got to beat HIM up since HE used Octi to hurt her.

And then I shot lightning bolts and fried my apartments electrics. Fun mornings all around!

Anyone know an electrician who won't ask too many questions about weird burn marks?

What the actual fuck....

https://22convention.com/

A convention to "make women great again" and "DESTINED TO BE THE MANSPLAINING EVENT OF THE CENTURY”

I can't believe this is even real...

I guess wishes don't last forever.

And a new year and new dreams.

Mostly to do with my duties as a Queen and nothing really crazy, at least until there's a strange sickness that affected both animals and people.

And the giant nightmare wolf.

Did anyone else get a snowglobe on Christmas? It seems to show ... memories.

Happy Birthday to me

Going home for the holidays is stressful!

I'm all caught up for classes so I don't need to worry about relaxing over break and not being prepared when I come back. I've almost finished my shopping (why are so many people coming to family dinner!?!) and got my cards all made out to the people in my building.

I still have so much on my list, and tonight is decorating so that it's all nice and festive!

It's so stressful but I really love decorating! Even if it is just for 3 weeks.

It's snowing! And it feels like a big one so for the record I had nothing to do with this.

Anyone else just really hate straps on their shoulders?

I had completely forgot how draining it was to be with my uncle's family at Thanksgiving. It's not even like they're that big, it's just so many people.

I have a year to remember to make plans of my own. I think by then I might have a legit army of cats though, that can surely be an excuse, right?

I spent most of today creating a little snow park for some kids.

Kids these days have really interesting imaginations.

It's sad when friends decide they have to leave. Maybe they'll be back some day, but it's a little different to just have a text/messaging friendship and not see each other all the time. But hopefully a change in scenery is good for them, gotta look on the bright side as well.

But update on the dream situation - some guy decided to climb into my tower and I knocked him out with a frying pan. Things get interesting the moment my Mother decides to leave. I've got him tied up in a chair with my hair.

There is nothing more tedious than a board meeting where the board just shout needlessly at one another.

At what point do old white men stop craving the sound of their own voice? I'm considering replacing them all with graduate students, millennials. That would give them the shock of their life.

Hmm, if I purposely try to cause a heart attack and it happens, is that manslaughter?

Why does that hag always have to stick her nose in where it isn't wanted and get all of her facts entirely twisted? It isn't enough for her to do one or the other and she clearly doesn't care who she hurts in the pursuit of her 'story'. So much for journalistic integrity. I'll be in my suite getting drunk if anyone wants to join me. You'll just have to bring your own bottles because I have no intention of sharing tonight.

[Elsa]

Anyone who knows me knows that what she said about you in regards to me is utter bullshit. I do what I want with who I want. I always have and I always will.

I like challenges, I really do. But when you want a full bridal party outfitted in leather dresses, maybe give me more than 2 months notice.

My hands are likely going to be an utter mess by December. On the other hand, I really like the ideas this bride has and her colour scheme. I just really hope I can get enough leather to work with.

At this rate I'll be renting an office space somewhere.

You know what... I'm getting a little bit sick of Mojo Jojo.

Monkeys are cute and fun and a little bit mischievous, but gosh am I tired of getting called out to Mojo's nonsense! It's not like he's the worst nuisance to Townsville, not at all. HIM is totally the worst -lobster ballerina much? But Mojo is by far the most constant and stupid!

I blasted ice breath in my dreams, which isn't something my sisters can do and is really weird, but kind of cool (no puns please) but it's got me wondering what Bubbles and Buttercup might be able to do.

I totally didn't focus during my European History class because of this.

Glad as I am to have my strength back - I really could have lived without the heightened sense of smell coming back. How in a week did I forget how disgusting that tea blend my neighbor makes every damn day smells?

[Katherine]
Gonna need you to help me stay on top of things tonight - I'm still adjusting to having everything back. Distractions are definitely a problem for me.

[Stiles]
If your boyfriend comes in tonight I'm putting him on phone babysitting. I'm delegating every distraction I can until I get used to my senses again.

Lets talk about the undergarments of the 1800's.

Slimming as ever, but hurt like a hell.

No wonder woman broke ribs, fainted, or their body changed to adjust.

It's just your usual Sunday. Get coffee and breakfast for your girlfriend, settle into the living room to put together some IKEA. She's not shapeshifting into random animals, it's a great time to put together her new wardrobe.

Then you get completely flustered in 20 minutes and nearly set everything on fire. Like you do. Yup, typical Sunday for The Avatar.

I CAN FLY AND IM FUCKING LIVING FOR IT. EXCEPT MY PHONE SUFFERED. SORRY PHONE. I dropped it in an ocean.

I'm kinda proud of myself, I wrote the most professional fuck you letter to my agent without a single actual curse word involved and quit. I'm freeeee.


[Elsa]
Why didn't you tell me you were kidnapped? No more secrets.

I think I'm getting tired of modeling. Never thought I'd say that.

Uh oh, someone call for help!

I woke up from a dream where an evil baddie turned all our friends against my sisters and me, and we had to beat them up, and I blasted a hole in my wall!!! :O

Thankfully I don't think it's a supporting wall, but I don't know that I want a Hobbit door to my bedroom!

I-

Part of my hair turned white. WTF? Tried to wash it out but it wouldn't.

I had such a surreal dream last night. I got to dream about being up in some tower and seeing these beautiful lanterns lighting up the night sky. The sky was absolutely FILLED with them. It is probably one of the coolest things I've ever seen, but that was it. It was like my subconscious slipped into that and then out of it immediately.

So weird, but I definitely am inspired to do some painting of it today! At least there's a bonus there.

Why do some people think you can turn over a full formal design in one week? Like, I haven't even measured this woman yet, what makes her think I'll have her dress sketched, approved and made in less than 14 days?

I can't stand listening to the Facebook defenders, so you are my venting platform, even if I've never heard of it before.

Like, really. Do people expect bespoke furniture to be ready in a week? This is what you need to put up with when you want one of a kind.

I don't think my dreams have anything resembling continuity. Which on the one hand, I like that there isn't the whole 'what's going to happen, how will this affect me' thing. On the other, three children are regularly causing serious infrastructure damage on a weekly basis and nothing is done about it?

It also strikes me as strange that everyone is cool with us busting out of kindergarten every day via the roof. That's dangerous!

In less crazy news, I am officially a dog walker for the summer! I get to take out the shelter dogs, and maybe, hopefully, they can meet some nice people who will adopt them! I have two little terrier buddies today and I'm really looking forward to it!

The contractor says it's going to be months to finish repairing the house still. Rather than burn money in a hotel I've started looking for a condo or some place.

At least I'll never have to worry about air conditioning costs.

Well crap, I might be just as crazy as all of you.

I got asked to go to a makeup Launch party this weekend with my Agency but don't wanna go alone. Free makeup, and probably tiny pompous finger sandwiches to anyone who says yes?!

I forgot how forward American guys were. I had a guy over to fix the air conditioner today, he thought my offering him a drink was a code for Please remove your pants.

So that happened.

I turned around to give him a freaking water bottle and his pants were down. No wonder he's single.

I just came home from work to discover that this seemingly innocent ball of orange fluff I picked up from a box Friday Night has decided to chew right through my very last pair of Manolo Blahniks. Have you ever wanted to just scream and threaten violence upon something only to look at their faces and realise there's absolutely no way that you can?

Stupid feline. I knew adopting this kitten was a bad idea. Yang, he's your son from now on.

So fun fact. If you go ice skating in the middle of the day during the week, there's a lot less people and sometimes you're the only one on the ice. Which okay, makes a lot of sense.

Though I'm kinda confused why one lady came up to me to ask if the ice was always so bad since they hadn't done the zamboni since so few people and middle of the public skating time? I mean...it's a public rink in a mall? I don't know. It was just very weird.

It's moving day, bitches!


I didn't realize I had so much stuff, omg when did this happen? Travel they said, it'll be fun they said. Where are they to lug all this crap for me!

These creatures are adorable and I have five
