Dream dream dream when I want to

Yeah, I had the strangest dream last night. Me and Belle were out hiking in Norway. It looked just like Hollywood hills, but it was Norway, we both knew that. When we were climbing up some hill we found Robin Hood, whom we brought. Then all of a sudden it wasn't hills anymore, but a big green valley, where we got the urge to sing something from "Sound of music".

Then we were back in Norway, and we came to this rave party. My biggest concern there was wearing the big backpack that I could not take off (someone would steal it...)

Then I found a VIP room with Johnny Depp in and all of a sudden I woke up.

Why? Why?

The big change

Well, it all changed. Like over night. I will not live at all in Vancouver and everything is upside down. The security of my whole being was erased, and now I sludder around in some kind of new being, trying to find that old security again. Well, not the old one. Something new, but just the same. Yeah. That's cryptic.

I like it.

To make it all I eat lots of chocolate, and I've taken up running. When I was like seventeen I ran every day. It was great to move, and it surely cleared my mind. Again I need it. I never thought the freedom of feeling the wind in my face would return. Maybe it's the Santa Ana, I don't know. Maybe it's just cuz I've never lived where the breeze is actually warm and refreshing. Well, when it's not smoggy, anyway.

I'm just gonna figure out how I want my new being to be like, and then life will be right back on. Wish me luck. :)

The big move

I am so grown up. Me and K are getting a second joint apartment, this new one in Los Angeles. We will both work mostly in LA now, but still be back in Vancouver once in a while to work there.

When it comes to the actual move, it means carrying a lot of stuff, and neither me nor K are very sturdy, so if you are... welcome. :)
