Nightmares

It feels weird not writing about this on LiveJournal, but there's kind of a no going back thing happening. I just wish there was a better place than Blogger to do journaling these days.

Anyway, yesterday (two nights ago), I had a whole night of nightmares. It was one after the other every 45 minutes or so. A lot of them had to do with my room having multiple ghosts in it, which I confirmed when one of them threw my stuffed tiger back at me when I asked it to (that turned out to be a benevolent ghost, at least).

But the one that really stays with me was one in which we were in a kitchen and a group of us were trying to take a selfie. A guy was trying to use his phone to take the photo, but it kept making a tick noise like a metronome, and the screen kept sliding to the side half and inch and going back, like someone was swiping it or it was broken. Then it took a bunch of photos and one was of the other direction. The guy holding the phone said, "It took a photo of the corner. And Howard's in it."

We looked at the kitchen wall, and in the corner in the dark was a really messed up Howard from Big Bang Theory. He was standing there, staring at us. It felt really scary.

Then I woke up.

Pole update 5 / Karate update 1

POLE This last weekend I took my first pole workshop with a traveling instructor. Even though I didn't find it overly helpful (or worth the money), I still consider it a milestone in my pole fitness journey. The instructor was Brynn Route, and we did a series of unconnected floor choreography sequences. I didn't find it very helpful because it wasn't applicable to anything else, and I really wanted to learn some actual pole tricks. If I'm paying $90 for a session, I want to get something out of it that I wouldn't from a regular class (or YouTube). One of the other girls, Jill, was struggling just as much as I was with a lot of the moves in the workshop (Brynn was super nice, but she only showed each complicated sequence twice without a breakdown before having us do it), which was fantastic in camaraderie. At the end of the workshop she turned to me and said, "you're so strong," which just made my life. I told her I didn't really know how to res...

Plants in my life this week

These are the plants in my life these past two days (as I volunteered at Leu Gardens): Saw Palmetto Palms (the only native palm in Florida) Lady Palms (these are the suckers that travel underground and attach themselves to each other, making them near impossible to pull out. I've also been informed that they make very popular houseplants) Sword Fern? Camelia Groves This was my favorite one A bunch of crazy Bromelias (it *almost* makes it worth getting them, but not quite) This yellow blooming tree next to this regular tree Honorable mention: my new favorite flower -- the Bush Lily

Conversation with Dad

  Some photos from when Dad and I stopped in Tennessee on the way down to Florida from Wisconsin in May 2023 Just got off a 2 hour phone call with my Dad. It was one of, if not the best, conversations I think I've ever had with him. I called him because I was really upset with my mom re: how she responded to my telling her I didn't get the WDI job.  There are far too many things to mention, so I'm breaking them down into bullets: The (WDI) Job: Of note: his reaction was a totally perfect, normal reaction. He kept reacting to the crazy feedback the recruiter gave me and asked a lot of questions.  He agreed that the recruiter didn't make any sense and it didn't make any sense. He also agreed that I should reach out to another recruiter and try to connect with them. He said it sounds like something is really off inside the department, maybe with leadership, and this might not have been the right time or opportunity. It might have been a good omen  He also said somethin...
