    I love gymnastics and diving!

    How's the Belarusian girl? Is she still leaving her scent on you?

    UPS (not informed delivery but UPS, themselves) sent an email saying that I have a package coming tomorrow and I'll need to sign for it to receive it. I already got my refund for the tv and laptop that I bought.

    Please be a free tv and laptop. I haven't ordered anything else in 30 days that would constitute signing for it's arrival.

    What the heck happened to pears? Are they no longer in stores in the midwest or what? I went to 4 different grocery stores and nobody had pears.

    The food bank here gives out pears by the bushel. So, I guess the answer would be California.

    I wonder if the popularity of fashion/ designer clothing apps has cut into business for consignment shops.

    I'm also grateful I have a bunch of items that are already in this season, no need to buy more items lol.

    It went really well, actually. I don't think I'll do any more digging... for now. I'm just glad to have a doctor who actually knows how medications work and will actually let me talk. And she is a real doctor, unlike the last one.

    Anyone else super ridiculous with home decor stuff or is it just me? I mean, my bathroom is beach theme and everything, even the bathroom trash can is beach theme. I don't like anything to be in the room that doesn't fit the theme. I just bought a new nightlight and it had to be seashell.

    I had a dream last night that I remember from top to bottom. I had to write it down as soon as I woke up because it's clearly going to be important. I never remember anything about my dreams unless they predict something. When I was around 11 years old I predicted my grandparents divorce (that they finally had just last year). All three dreams about my parents came true. One of my best guys friends had this girl that he was dating and I dreamed that she was trying on a wedding dress for another man. A year later they broke up and she married some other guy within the month. This dream from last night was about me though. And I welcome what it said. I'm so glad it wasn't something bad because there is literally nothing I can ever do to change what I see.

    If I was still talking to my mom, I'd ask her if she's had any dreams lately. She has more of them than me.

This was already weird because I don't fuck with my mother or show her any of my wins but, of course, in "dreamland" nothing is weird when it's happening. I remember mentioning that I had to move because my lease was up at my old apartment and I'd already been there for two years. (Come next summer that will be true).

    We were apartment hunting and came across a unit that had the number of bedroom that I wanted but it was honestly ghetto and unattractive. I tried to complinent the place but my mom was like, "we need to find something better than this, Nita" in that snooty kind of way she usually does but this time it wasn't directed at me. So I had the bright idea to show her my dream house which was ironically right next to this shitty unit. Just because.

    The leasing lady grabbed the key for it and tried to let us inside but realized she had the wrong key altogether. She broke the lock for us and let us in.

    I was showing my mom around the house but for me it was like I was seeing this place for the first time. The rest of my family was there as if they had been there from the start of my dream, nothing odd. But actually that is VERY odd because no one gets along with my mom and they avoid her, too. There's no way they'd be walking around, talking freely like all was well, with her right there. It had so many bedrooms that I started to lose count around room #6 or #7. I was taking pictures of every room I walked into so that I could post it on my dream board later and my mom and aunt made some very approving comments and mentioned LOA. I mean they damn near patted me on the back for taking these pics.

    This one room though. It was wide like a huge game room but just without any of the furniture and stuff. And one wall was made entirely of glass to show the most incredible view I have ever seen. I don't know how my brain came up with this; I've never seen anything that compares. The colors in the sky, in the trees, and of the grass were so.. Healthy. Vivid. There was this big lake in the foreground and everything just looked so lush it was almost like looking at CGI. It was like I was in an entirely different country or something. There's no way this view sat in someone's run-of-the-mill backyard. But it made me stop and stare in complete silence. My cousin was already in the room sitting on the floor and she was, "Wow, right?"

    I kept taking pictures and eventually we all had to leave because the leasing office was closing in 5 minutes. I took some last minute pics, grabbed my pamphlet and just before leaving turned back and asked the leasing lady what the price of the place was. She was like, "$11,000".

    I knew I heard her wrong and asked her to repeat it but she said it again kind of slow like '$11,000 isn't expensive enough?' My mom had a look on her face that said "wow, that's a lot of fucking money". I was floored by their response to what was clearly an incredible deal.

    We piled into the car and sat there waiting for one or two more ppl to get in. But before we even left I woke up.


    I noticed a few details that may be prophetic. The way the leasing lady had to break the lock for us to get in the house shows me that I will likely need someone with a connection to what I want and the power to bend the rules for me to get it. LOA was clearly and loudly mentioned, encouraged, and re-inforced in my dream. I'll need to be mindful of it's power and consistent with using it. And the way my mom and the leasing lady seemed to believe that I was paying full price for the house if I decided to buy it (while it sounded like a steal to me) in kind of open to interpretation. Will I come into so much money that large sums seem little one day? Will I have amassed most of the money for this house and the only amount I don't have is $11,000? Who knows.

    Ours will probably be ripe soon.

    No telling how long it will be before they are ripe up north.

    I agree with your analysis of the lock breaking. And whether or not you don't interact with your mother, she clearly has some real estate of her own inside your brain. However.... in this case I think she wasn't your mother but the part of you that you think is like your mother. And you were showing yourself around, the part of you that doesn't believe in you as much as you would like.

    I'd say you are an optimistic person in your current persona, which is great if you can use optimism as a source of motivation. You believe you have a bright future, and that your challenges will be trivial. The perhaps insurmountable challenge of affording a house will be easy, and your family, and more importantly your skeptical maternal self, will finally share the confidence that you currently have.

    LOL they also say a house represents you in your dreams, so another way to look at it is you are really attractive, but $11,000.... you've got to up that!

    Have you considered actually going to bed and to sleep several hours before you have to get up?

    Sometimes I read the Craigslist gig ads and can't help but laugh at the absurdity. One guy is offering $45 a week to basically be his mom. He want someone to call him 7 days a week to make sure he does basic adult life functions such as gets up on time for work, cooks, cleans, pays his bills on time, etc and doesn't stop bugging him until he does. Where the heck is his mom or grandma? Another winner posted an ad saying that he needs professional medical(preferably a "buxom female doctor or nurse with slender waist")help with his erectile dysfunction. No pay, he said but "a bonus may be offered if goal is achieved but don't count on it". Are you kidding me with this shit? Some people truly do live in la la land.

    Oh yeah. Slightly comic- the vendors do this on purpose to keep the "integrity" of the brand. I personally think LE cracking down on counterfeit designer clothing is so stupid- I've purchased "street market" items as a "innocent shopper" that were probably sturdier than the original designer authentic item...lol

    The last time I actually shopped a LOT I was under the impression a lot of designer clothing first goes to Outlets. There are some awesome outlets in the Pacific NW, I'm assuming some extra stock gets shipped to Vancouver BC.

    That sounds like a waste of clothes. They'd make better use of it to just donate it to a homeless shelter or somewhere like that, instead of throwing it in the trash.

    It's just retail BS.

    TBH the markup on designer clothes is completely nuts. A lot of rich people hit up Outlet stores b/c they eventually learn some items aren't worth spending ten times the money....

    Default Re: The Totally Random Thread...

    uber eats sounds so convenient but do I really want some random to take a sip of my drink before knocking on my door? shit, i don't want to go outside. But this fresh, soapy smell will turn into grass and heat the second I get into my car.
