And then I have lunch and watch a bit of tv, and before I know it, it's already time for dinner. The problem is that I don't go to sleep until like 4 to 6 in the morning which I know is stupid, but it's just so damn hard to break the routine. I'm going to try to get in bed by 2 AM today and then 1 the next day, 12 the next, etc.

      I'd sooner think it's the Clonazepam So I either sleep all day or have anxiety attacks all day.
      Then again, I had sleeping issues before the med. It just seems worse now.
      I wish I could afford Provigil. That med is a miracle (for staying awake)

      ^^ I guess I'm jelly of the fact that you can't, son

      I miss the days of waking at the crisp, infant dawn, when the sky is pink, reflecting rainbows off the early dew.. misty lawns, funny sounding birds that I never hear at any other time of day. The air is still, and quiet, like a blank canvas and my mind is so clear and full of endorphins. That is the only other time I feel I could conquer the world, besides when I awaken from a particularly delicious lucid dream.

      No I'm normally really tired and just have to go to school and sit in some stinky class room with stinky people. And observe all the ants waking up and going to their jobs and what not. I'd rather sleep through it.

      Ugh... I called about the home visit, actually got ahold of her and she was like: "We had something scheduled for today?" Yeah. We did. But it turns out, she's 9 months pregnant and can no longer travel anyhow. Someone else will have to do it when she finds a replacement next week. And they HAVE to do it at the house because it's to establish home visits with my youngest daughter.
      Which means, I'll have to go all the way out to the Farm for such times. Zee's wall alone will keep her from being able to come home. Plus, she smashed up her bed, so there's no where for her to sleep except a cot (though she actually tends to sleep in my room).
      Plus, my son is still home so she wouldn't be allowed to be around him anyhow.

      I'll be damned if I'm going to repair her wall again. If she ever gets to come home SHE'S going to repair it. And she would forever sleep on the cot unless she earned money for a new bed frame (she's gone through several).
      But everything is fine at the Farm other than there's absolutely nothing to do. But hey, the stove and fridge works

      I'm so hung over today >.<
      At least I had a great time most of the evening. Though I did turn into an obnoxious, self-pitying, arrogant emokid at the end.

      I do that from time to time when really drunk. But only if I was already kinda feeling it before I started drinking to hard.

      Spoiler for Just more venting...no worries :D:

      Cliffs: To see how people make themselves weak, thinking that you're superior over them, and then coming back to the realization that you are susceptible of being considered weak to another person, but your mind denies it as it saturates your logic with this ignorance, but knowing that it wouldn't want you to actually carry out the act, just to linger in the moment of possibility.

      Then enjoying how I'm a hypocrite, and not really giving a crap if there is anything wrong with being one.

      Last night went okay. It was just a night with 'the boys' and a lot of few drinks. It feels like my was-good-friend is a lot douch'ier. Maybe it's just because I don't like him a great deal (I don't like him, but I wouldn't say I dislike him a lot.) There were a few people up on the roof, which I thought was pretty damn stupid, but they didn't seem to want to come down.
      I'm not sure if I want to stay over tonight just because I want some alone time, I like being alone. My girlfriend can't come tonight because she has to work, which makes the whole night a lot shittier.

      I have to start taking them down. Not the direction I wanted to go necessarily, normally I prefer that I am an adult, and you are an adult. But this is my LIVELIHOOD. And my son's. And you think you have the right to pull the fire alarm without even consulting me first, just in case, oh I don't know, just in case you got the wrong end of the stick? Tool. NOW I'm being a not adult. I HAVE to be a not adult to deal with another not adult who has power over me and my paycheck and the survival of me, my son, my whole family. I have INSURANCE you cum bubble!

      That's twice. Any other person would say WAR at this point. I'll give you one last shot. Then I'm knocking your dick in the dirt you lazy, obsolete sack of shit. Oh yeah, almost forgot, you will LOSE.

      Hell hath no fury + hand that rocks the cradle = your balls in shreds. Not a criticism mind you, just an observation.

      Probably, but it doesn't affect me other than not being able to ride my bicycle if I have to go somewhere.

      Complaint: I hate when I motivate myself that I will have a lucid dream, and tell my mind that I will remember my dreams but I wake up, and I'm like "FUCKCCKCKCK I NEED TO SLEEP"

      It's like my mind is---wait nvm I already complained about this.

      Rant:

      I want to find Kaomea in my dreams, but I'm also thinking about going back to finding EVA from Metal Gear Solid 3 again, but I don't know what to do now!!! I just want to find someone to love in my dreams! I'd like to get into Astral Projection/OBEs, but I don't know...I'm afraid she may not be a potential Twin Soul. I think we're good friends, but then again, it's probably just me being able to make friends easily if I want to feel their energy...

      No, it's not an act for desperate sex, it's just seeing interaction at a different level other than the boring appearances waking life gives. Damn it subconscious, WHY AREN'T YOU RELATING WITH ME RIGHT NOW?!?!? I come on a lucid dreaming forums and end up interacting with people in on the internet when I should be having romantic lucid dreams!

      What is wrong with me? Damn it, I didn't come on this forum to just talk to people and crap....I came here to motivate myself to lucid dream!



      But now that I think about it, it's not my subconscious, it's me. Lately, I've been too lazy keeping myself up, I keep blaming my subconscious, apologizing to it, hoping that it would be nice to give me some dream recall, even a lucid! But nooooo, it's me. Even though my subconscious is me, maybe I just hate myself? I don't understand anymore.....

      I'm bored inside my apartment complex when I have free time, why can't realize that dealing with the problems of waking up for a WBTB is what I need to do?

      I don't know how much my priorities are on attempting lucid dreaming...it seems that each day, I just wake up realizing I have to do something, and forget about the dreams I've had. It's only during on the weekdays, but I know Tuesday is the day I can sleep late, but I JUST CAN'T FIND ANYTHING NOW.

      Maybe I need to dream about Eva, but again, that might just lead to me being more depressed.


      DAMN IT! I know there are many people who are having a hard time lucid dreaming, but I want active lucid dreaming to be a part of my life! I know I can become a more positive person if I can know that most of the nights I sleep, I can lucid dream. I even read motivation guides like Mancon's.....but I STILL forget!

      I just want to FREAKING ksdvjbghklsdfjhs FREAFSDNJAKGSDGADKFGJGsa I Don't CARE GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE

      kgfjsdU UGGGHG!@!~! DAMN IT! FREAKING almost 7 months in Dream Views, and only a collection of crappy Dream Journal entries I've made. Non-lucids SUCK, THEY REALLY DO. I don't care about this "oooh non-lucids can be memorable and fun too!"

      NO SCREW THAT! It's all about lucids BABY...non-lucids are only fun for a WHILE. LUCIDS are fun as long as I'm living.

      Damn it..............DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY.CAN'T.I.GATHER.THE.MOTIVATION.TO.LUCID.DREAM?! !?!?1

      I HATE THIS I HATE MYSELF I HATE THIS BULLCRAP..........

      I just want to do insane things for once...sit in a jet, and do a HALO jump at 130 miles per hour....but no, I just keep taking for granted at the joy thatcan extend throughout waking life from lucid dreaming...

      fdaskjakjsdgkj....

      Edit: Holy hell....I never knew I could be this sporadic :x

      It's almost 4AM and I can't sleep. Normally that would be just fine and dandy by me. But I get to spend the day with my kids tomorrow. I have to leave at a little after 10, pick up Destinee by 11, be at Zee's place by Noon crap.... I put down that I wouldn't be to see Myles until 2:30. WTF was I thinking?! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr. I'm *supposed* to see him at 1:30. Or maybe I'm overly sleepy and my math is even more screwed up than ever...
      *going to check my notes*
      Crap. I really DID tell them 2:30-3:30. I guess Sis (Destinee) and I could grab a snack at Cracker Barrel or something. I'll call them in the early AM and see if I can change it to what it should be. Me and my stupid brain

      Anyhow, I have to have Sis back by 5 and I am REALLY not in the mood for any of her angst because she can't go home.
      Good God, last time she cried, cursed and occasionally screeched just because I wouldn't drive all the way home.

      Snuffanuff got loose again Last night he got loose simply by tugging on his chain until he slipped out of his collar. This morning, I rigged it like his dads so it's more like a choker collar than anything. He chewed right through it. I may have to look for a real choker for him.
      My little dog is being super restless tonight and driving me batty. And Vlashki (the male bird) is being annoyingly loud and vocal. We play a whistle "game" and when I don't mimic him perfectly, he throws a fit. Sorry bird, I'm a great whistler and all but cut me some slack!

      Oh yeah... I'm also officially and completely out of Silver Nitrate sticks and I have a small boil on my back. Hubby doesn't know if he can even still order them and he doesn't like me having them anyhow because he's afraid I'm going to poison myself.
      They are the most freagin practical things in the world. You have a small skin tag- burn it off. A small (benign cyst)- burn it out. I even removed an annoying mole I've had all my life on my knee. BUT, I had those sticks for almost a year at least.
      I think they're the most amazing things in the world and I REALLY hope he can get me some more!

      **EDIT**
      Woot! If hubby wont get them for me, I can buy them off of eBay I read a bunch of posts and I can't believe how many people can't tolerate the stuff. They find it incredibly painful. It feels like nothing to me most of the time. Sometimes it feels a little like dabbing salt on a small cut (especially on the tongue!) I love the feel of that sort of burn. Then again, I am strange....

      Sometimes I worry about what my father thinks about me. He's not really a strict type of person, he always told me his mother was way strict compared to what he tries to instill to me. He was only strict when I was younger, which is obvious since so much can happen when you're that little, and it kind of died off when I got into High School.

      Sometimes I wonder if he thinks I have shit for brains or something. I never really had that many conversations with him, so I guess that's my fault for him having ignorant speculations.

      I honestly wonder how the hell he could think that if me getting to college wasn't even that hard in the first place, especially in a Tier 1 University!

      I keep gathering shit from the past, but seriously, Do you honestly fucking think that I was socializing with people or something? Parents really just...I HATE IT, you CAN'T HATE THEM....because that will just make you more miserable....but still. DAMN IT LOL.

      Hell, I was invited to go to an IVY LEAGUE COLLEGE....but no, obviously THAT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU FUCKING IGNORANT PRICK? I HAD TO SETTLE FOR TEXAS A&M because you thought I wasn't going to do well in an IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL?

      HELLLO!!!!!!!!?~?!? GOD DAMN IT! It would've been nice to Dartmouth College, then again, I guess it would've been better majoring in Biochemistry here in A&M rather than law or political science in an ivy league.

      But still....I had the grades to receive enough financial aid for an ivy league school..FUCKING IVY LEAGUE LOL. Do you know how many BLACK MEN get into that? NOT A LOT YOU ASSHOLE!!!

      If only he knew how college worked, he would've automatically sent me to an Ivy League school, faster than kim kardashian's divorce. Nope. $30,000+ a year is not a lot, especially if 50% of that money would be refunded to you ANYWAY...

      Just fucking IVY LEAGUE....ugggggggggghhh I hate this....BLEGH what's the fucking point in bitching about it anyway. At least I won't be in debt, but having:

      Black Man : Went to Dartmouth, Majored in Law (or some type of science)

      Hell, even FUCKING CORNELL invited me! CORNELL GOD DAMN IT.

      I HATE THIS SHIT! I WAS GOING TO IVY LEAGUE SCHOOLS....and I barely even fucking tried! I could've gotten to Yale if I actually gave two shits about my future! But nope! Had to settle for the lower ranks of Ivy League Schools, and conform to this public university.


      Loool, I really took for granted of my competence in attracting High Tier colleges....whatever....hopefully I can get a chance when I apply for graduate school.....MAYBE...

      But at the same time, all of these opportunities given to me at the time when applying for colleges, I feel like I didn't deserve it. I knew I worked hard to get to college, but at the same time, I felt like a certain side of me controlled everything to give me those chances of having "Ivy League student" in my name.

      Sigh....regrets regrets REGRETS NOTHING BUT REGRETS....guess life isn't all about Ivy League I guess, even if it would help A SHITLOAD when looking for a job.

      People are so susceptible to word of mouth...yet I never took advantage of that. fjasdkgjsdkghjdkgh I'm done with this stupid rant.

      Bulllshit venting at it's worse....

      Another trip down regressed memory lane...I shouldn't even be pissed at this, it's been over a year since I was worried about this...

      Congratz on getting into an ivy league school! I am sure your dad is really proud of you although he might not show it.... Maybe he doesn't want you to become haughty and that's why he's still hard on you.. But how can he not be proud of that?!
      I think 30,000 is a lot of money to a lot of people, even if you get a scholarship for half of it. I think it's a lot. For one year or three?

      No nono nonono I didn't get into an Ivy League School. I went to Texas A&M University instead. I meant settling for lower Ivy league schools that weren't Yale or Harvard, but I decided not to apply to them because I knew I could be in debt.

      Sorry, I didn't make sense there.

      I mean settling for the other Ivy League schools, but going to a public university here in Texas that wasn't Ivy league.

      Edit: And yes, for one year in college, but it wouldn't have been so bad if I could land a position in the money grabbing oil companies back in Texas..

      But "they invited you" so that means you applied & were accepted, but you turned down their offer?

      By "inviting," it just means that they wanted you to come to a session to show what the college had to offer, which basically means, "Hey, We think you're good enough to come here to be a part of us, but we'll just wait a little while until you're done with graduation and done applying for us...but look at how cool our college/university is!" kind of mentality.

      I was already a shoe-in for Dartmouth, but NOPE. Had to go to another school because the house me and my father lived in wasn't good enough, which fucked up the schedules for me to take my SAT/ACTs...and after two more schools, I just thought to myself, "Just fuck this shit....I'll just go to A&M, and get the same education as the Ivy League Schools." Even my counselors in High School told me about this. And I just took the ACT without really having time to prepare while worrying about staying in the top 3%.

      If I had stayed in one high school, I would've been in a much better situation to where my father could just SHUT THE FUCK UP with this "You need to do your best so that you can get a good job"

      Rice University was another option for me, but again, too expensive, and counselors thought I wouldn't get in, even though I fucking got invitations to see what Ivy Leagues schools had to offer.

      I'm over it now though lol. It's just that if I went to Ivy League, my father couldn't say SHIT to me. But this is just me being paranoid, when he told me to do well, he did it in a normal way, but I just hated anything he would say to me, so it's just me being ignorant and focusing on my own well-being.

      :/

      Anyway, time to clean the Dishes!!!

      I stubbed my pinky toe on god knows what and now it's red, swollen and hurting.
      Also, more recently, my friends have been wanting me to hang out with them or go do stupid/boring/dumb/useless/general things i dislike shit. Then they get all fucking offended if I don't want to hang out all time and do their idiotic things.
      I already don't like going out, and they know that. Yet they keep on fucking persisting and I'm stubborn so I usually don't give in. (Though I'm a pushover with some things). They end up guilt tripping me so then I become an assertive ass to get the message across, then I generally feel bad but they should know this all by now <_<

      I ran out of spaghetti sauce... so I was forced to make tomato-mushroom sauce with garlic, basil, and red pepper.

      So it's a complaint and a rave, because the sauce was delicious but took an extra 15 minutes to simmer down.
