Be back before dawn.

I had a particularly unsettling dream last night; I got a phone call from a relative and for an hour I sat there just listening to them cry. I couldn't see them or help them and I couldn't even be sure they were really there.

SO glad to be out of that dream cloud, although it left me with a funny feeling and I have been all interpret-y ever since. The thing is there have been a few folk who I have felt the need to comfort recently and mostly I have had to do this through some kind of electronic intermediary device, thus making my efforts rather remote.

So anyway, that got my day off to a chirpy start and a day that was supposed to be filled with essay writing turned into a day filled with feeling out of sorts and pouty.

On the plus side the Super hero Barbies I bought from ebay turned up and this cheered me enormously. It's heartwarming really, the fact that such utterly useless (although extremely cute) items have the power to disctract me so pleasantly. Briefly I suspect but nevermind.
