"Knowing," Dreams, and Air Conditioning [etc.]

I am happy to report that our landlord got our air fixed AND we have a place for the harps. Huzzah! Now we don't have to pack up all our crap and move out. :)

Last night we went to see the movie "Knowing" at the St. Andrew's $2 theater. We were expecting an "Armageddon" of sorts, a nice action flick with little to no emotional resonance or thought process. I even told Stu off-handedly what would have to happen and thought I knew what the gun on the table was. BOY WAS I WRONG!!! WTF?!?!?!

It's based on a sci-fi novel written by a Catholic, and I don't want to say anything else because it'll spoil it. Let's just say the genre for this movie, which I thought was action/thriller is actually sci-fi/fantasy/horror/thriller/action. It is JAM PACKED with stuff, in a good way, and scared the hell out of me while causing me to gasp in awe. It's crazy. If you don't like scary movies DO NOT WATCH THIS ONE. But if you want to see a Christian work of art that is gritty, real, scary, and just...weirdly incredible, try it. You might like it. Stu and I are going to buy it and we might go see it again.

Although I did have 3 really weird dreams last night.

I dreamed that I was in our old log cabin with my sister who was demon-possessed [I could tell by the red glints in her eyes] and she was dating this guy [who may have been a demon...] and I started praying and talking about God and it got really windy and knocked the breath out of me but I kept going and I screamed out about Jesus' love. It was weird.

I also dreamed that Stu and I were in camo and that he was running from the govt. for something and a bunch of people from The Office were there and suddenly all these helicopters were there [we were in a huge forest somewhere in Northern United States or maybe southern Canada] and the forest was swamped with soldiers and I was trying to hide Stu and let him get away while I distracted them. That was also weird.

The last dream...I can't remember right now but I woke up and remembered it and wanted to write it on here. :( Maybe I'll think of it later.

I got another story idea in the shower this morning so I may take the afternoon and see if I can at least start on it. Still working on illustrations for The Girl Who Lost Her Voice and it's tough. I can't figure out what exactly it's supposed to look like. Ah, well. I'll keep trying.

Also, I'm looking for a job for the fall - I want a stay-at-home job and apparently there are some around here...also, I wouldn't mind working at a hotel or as an office assistant somewhere and there are some opportunities so it's time to brush up my resume and hopefully send something out next month! Wish me luck. Job-hunting is not my forte as I would much rather be at home entertaining, playing dollhouse, or doing harp gigs. Speaking of harp gigs...I want a restaurant gig. Play 1 night a month, get tips, etc...nice little side job. :)

Have a lovely day, everybody. :) Bye for now.
