I'm not sure who said it first, but they were right. I'm so sick of seeing actresses who look like everyone else and all of these 20-something blonde reality stars. I honestly can't tell any of them apart and it's as if they strive to look like each other. Why? There are so many different forms of beauty.
My personal hell soundtrack is the sound of cat jingles. You know, those stupid jingle collars that they put on cats so you can hear the bastards sneak up on you? The jingles freak me out. You hear them in the next room and then they just STOP and everything is stiiiiiiill. THEN THEY START JINGLING AGAIN! And stop. Stillness. And then the jingles start coming from a different part of the house and all if a sudden I feel completely surrounded by evil cats who are just waiting to pounce on me.
It's like they KNOW I'm allergic to them. Sneaky bastards.
There's been a strange pattern lately where things that I think about seem to manifest themselves... even my dreams now.
1. My kitchen is covered in blue butterflies. I saw the exact same butterflies while I was away two weeks ago.
2. I've been thinking about soccer a lot lately and how I missed my chance to play with Chris, but until we meet again I should probably get a ball and practice. Last night I found an unattended soccer ball on my way to a meeting.
3. I always wanted to play piano, said so over dinner one evening, and now there's a keyboard in my living room.
4. I thought about a friend of mine the other day (it's been four years since we'd talked), and she called to say that she was in town the next day. It's the first time she's been back since she got married four years ago.
5. I had a very vivid dream where I composed my own song, played all of the instruments myself, arranged it all, and synced up videos of me playing all of the parts. I was on a huge stage at my piano, and I was playing the piano live while the videos of me were playing on the giant screen behind me. Then a friend posted this video on his facebook:
I'm not quite sure what's going on, but it's pretty empowering to think that everything will fall into place if you will it.
I'm still not sure how I feel about social media. I have this blog, a facebook, and a twitter account (but only to follow two other twitter accounts). Everything else has been deleted because it seems redundant/overwhelming. It's also been about 6 years since I've had a TV and I don't subscribe to newspapers or magazines.
