Remember those old commercials "Its 7 pm...do you know where your kids are?" I alwaysused to think they should play that at 9 or 10. I mean really...7pm???
OK so a couple of things.
My friends' sister came home. Lots of stuff happened, long story, and she is going into a drug rehab center after school and counselling as well. She is having problems with other family members (ie a mother who doesn't want her, a dad she never sees, and a brother who is in a gang and does drugs) and admitted to her sister that she has taken it out on her and that she is sorry. So she is going along with the drug rehab/counselling. I am very happy that things worked out this way. She is a smart girl too, very bright, and has a very good future as long as she takes care of herself.
About DF, no I haven't talked to him yet. I am waiting until after Christmas. It is too hectic right now to talk about anything like that! But I have decided since we have a couple days off of work afterwards that I will sit down and have a talk with him then. Hoping it will go well!
Ok, last thing. I had THE WEIRDEST dream last night. I dreamt that there was this large black void sort of engulfing the whole world. When people walked into it or when it swallowed up people, they disappeared. If they were screaming and jumped in, the scream would stop mid-scream. So for some reason I was on the west coast of the US in a shopping mall with DF. And I kept saying "let's take a boat out on the water and avoid it as long as possible" and he kept refusing. He said that it would take us sooner or later and that I have to accept it. I told him there were so many things I hadn't gotten to do in my life that I wanted to do and I wasn't just going to let that thing take me without knowing what it was going to do to me. The next thing I remember was thinking that this thing had already engulfed the whole east coast which meant that my parents and all my friends were gone. Next thing, the void shows up and Jay is going to run into it and just let it take him and I shouted at him to stop. He did and told me to stand with him and let it take us. I had to accept that it was going to happen. Next thing I know I wake up.
So my conclusion is that this "void" symbolizes death. I am not religious, was not raised with one, and do not believe that anythign happens to us after we die. I really think my dream symbolizes my fear of that "unknown". Any comments here? I woke up at 5:30 AM and ended up just getting up and coming into work. I have never had a dream that has scared me so badly like this one did.
So now that I have weirded you all out, how is your Mnday morning??
