B.A.U.

*sigh*

So it's Tuesday and almost like the weekend was never here. Today was my second 11 hour day in a row and I am absolutely exhausted. My brain feels like its been steamed at the local Chinese restaurant with the crab meat and chicken wings....

Anyway.. My last two dreams weren't overly exciting. I tried to record Sunday night's dream on Monday morning but my brain and my writing arm don't like to co-operate at 6 am... Last night's I can only remember key themes - Ken and I were arguing about....SOMETHING...annnnnnnnnnnnnd that's all I got....for now......... My brain has decided that memory block is best for me right now so you'll have to hold on for something more exciting! :p

My day, although busy, was unbearably long. There's a lot going on at work at the moment - which is great, however, it is tiresome. I have a lot of recruitment going on right and all of the newbies (managers and all) start on MONDAY. As I said, its not a bad thing - just painful to co-ordinate all at once. But ALAS I am a bit genius so, no doubt, it will be done with so-close-but-yet-so-far-perfection. :D

My evening has so far been short - I got home around 7:30'ish. I spent 15 minutes deliberating about what to have for dinner, finally agreed (with myself) on vegetable soup with toast, cooked and ate it before deciding its not even remotely close to what I felt like and then stifled the unsatisfactory feeling with Sara Lee french vanilla ice cream out of the carton. I am now on the couch watching Top Gear and really craving my bed.... Its just too far... :p

Anyway.. That's all I got for now - all my brain will give me.

Back soon! :) xx

Deja Vu

So I had a surreal experience this afternoon (one of many recently). A few months ago I had this random dream about this kid setting the dinner table for his mother. He took down a bunch of plates from the cupboard and placed them on the table. He went back into the kitchen to get something else and when he looked back at the dining table the plates were gone. He then looked in the cupboard and found them exactly where they had started. A girl appeared in the kitchen asking him what was wrong and he tried to explain. At that moment the plates fell from the cupboard and shattered all over the floor. Then the dream switched and moved on..  

This afternoon I was watching a movie I'd never seen (or heard of) before - The Haunting In Conneticut. About half an hour into the movie, the kid started to set the dining table. It wasn't until the plates fell from the cupboard onto the floor when my heart started pounding and I realised I'd seen the whole thing before. Piece by piece. The table setting, the fear on the kids face when the plates appeared in the cupboard, the plates breaking. So weird. Its not the fact that the movie was a true story that freaked me - it was the fact that I'd dreamed every minute of it. So, so weird.

I wish I could say it was the first time it had ever happened but it wasn't. I generally giggle it off - today included. Its just so surreal.....

Apart from that my day was quite enjoyable. :) Ken and I went shopping for 'motorbike boots'. He just bought a Harley - a Sportster 48 - its adorable. We didn't find any boots that he liked but I did end up with new shoes. :) Could you expect any less....? :p

Now we're just chillin on the couch watching The Mentalist - cute show. Ken made dinner tonight - Mac & Cheese with fetta. It was different but still pretty awesome. :)

I'm also dealing with the fact that tomorrow is Monday (not very well, I might add). I just can't believe how quickly the weekend goes and the new week drags......................

Anyway - until tomorrow...adieu! :)

The first of many...

Morning!

I can only remember the key themes from last night's dream. This happens sometimes... Often I'll remember the entire dream start to finish, but other times its all very vague except for key parts.

Last night I was at an old house I used to live in and we were hosting a house party for someone I knew. Being the host, I also acted as security so when a taxi pulled up with two girls I'd never seen before I did everything to get rid of them. One of them looked a little like a junkie and I was losing it at her "Get the f*ck out of here, you're not on the list! Its my house!" etc, etc. Then she started crying about how she travelled for an hour to get there and doesn't have money to get home and whatever. Then all of a sudden her friend was next to me and she was crying too and I looked at the girl I was hosting the party for (who didn't know who they were either) and we had a telepathic conversation that said "What harm will it do..?". So I allowed them to stay.

Then the dream switched and we were hosting a musical at work (WTF??). We hosted auditions for everyone at work. I ended up being the director with Lana (classic) and the dream started to fade away from here.

The weirdest part of my dream was the next section... I was assisting with building a very modern mansion. When I say modern I mean the things you would have seen on Time Cop and iRobot - automatic doors that scan your irises for security, beds that hover off the ground, security systems that talk to you - the list goes on. When the owner asked me if a law had been passed yet for (and I quote) "muslims to live in this house?". Umm.... What?? At least that's what I thought when I woke up... In my dream its like it was normal. "Yes" I replied, "They're allowed now, would you like me to invite them in?". So effing weird.

Anyway that's all I can remember from last night. This isn't even scratching the surface on how random and ridiculous my dreams get. I hope you're ready for the rest! :p

The beginning

Hi!

Welcome to the Melanie Jane show. I wish I had something exciting to tell you about right this second but I'm freezing on my couch and the house is calling to be cleaned - so I shall be brief.

On this page you will get a look into my life, thoughts and crazy dreams. I have been suffering from wild and vivid dreams for the last few months and I think its about time I write them all down so I can rationalise. :p

I've always said that I need my own reality show - my life is so random and crazy that I just don't get surprised anymore! Haha you will soon see what I mean.

In the interim I will tell the thing I'm most excited about at the moment - I joined a Burlesque dance class last week and I simply cannot wait to go back!! Once a week is simply not enough.

Anyway, that's all my brain can handle for now - I just spent the last hour trying to figure out how to set this crazy blog up!! Off to have breakfast and CLEAN!!! :)
