Of course I had a weird dream!
Mar. 18th, 2006 07:20 amGoing to bed with:
a) only one meal in your stomach (because I really wasn't hungry yesterday, and all I had was breakfast and a glass of chocolate milk, if I recall)
b) a seriously bad period and all its glorificus symptoms
and whatever else I can't think of off the top of my head is a recipe for a very strange sleep. I didn't wake up until now, but I feel VERY AWAKE now, and only slightly in pain (kind of a lower-stomach cramp, and a sort of "EAT, YOU STUPID TWAT!" kind of feeling, which I will deal with shortly).
So anyway, I dreamed that I was out walking along Clement (it must have been Clement) in San Francisco with Eva and (I think) Crystal. And for whatever weird reason, I think I needed a job. We saw this cute new jewelry store (kind of like a Claire's, but not), and I stopped in and sort of did my "Aries/Ox" thing and rather forcefully/optimistically landed myself a job. I remember glancing out the window and seeing how gray and overcast it was, and how while I was filling out paperwork, Eva and Crystal (?) were across the street, kind of in a hurry for me to join them so we could go somewhere.
After I finished up (I got the job; something about how all my knowledge of Microsoft Word would really help?), I ran across the street. But it was either really foggy out or something, because when I got to the corner, they weren't there anymore. I heard them giggling, and they were across the street, standing next to a bus stop going "vertically" from where I was standing (next to a bus stop that was "horizontal" to the street I was on). So I waited for the cars to pass and I caught up with them, but as I walked, I noticed Alex Chun walking down the street (not the sidewalk) with his girlfriend (?). He intentionally caught my gaze and nodded in that "Holy shit is he looking at me he scares me to death am I going to turn to stone" sort of way, and said "Sweet" and of course, me having that knee-jerk reaction, I nodded back (I didn't salute; that would have been stupid) and said "Sir." Not "Hey Alex" or anything else NORMAL.
He keeps on walking, and I finally join Eva and Crystal on the other side of the street. After a few minutes of dramatic silence, Eva and Crystal (I can't remember who did it first) burst out into laughter.
In retrospect "That was anti-climactic." And that could totally happen (aside maybe from the instantly landing a job because of my Sweet personality charisma).
In other news, I am a total hypocrite. Stephanie and Katia (and Eva, too?) surely remember how I was extremely-anti Harry Potter in high school, when it was all the hype and rage? And then they refused to tell me what they were whispering about when we saw a preview of Prisoner of Azkaban at my old, evil work (AMC Van Ness 1000) until I read the books... so I did. Actually, my MOM had all the books, and I borrowed them off her. Then, since I was hooked, Steph bought me the then-new "Order of the Phoenix" and the rest is history.
Well, do you guys remember in Senior year of high school, when American Idol was brand-new, and Mr. Ulrich was all about it? He was such a big fan of Kelly Clarkson that we actually sang "A Moment Like This" for graduation? Yeah, well, for all my talk of how that was the worst kind of reality show (it still is) and that people that tried out had no real talent or perseverance for getting into the music industry "the real way" (...), I am now what appears to be a Kelly Clarkson fan. :P I bought two of her albums on iTunes two nights ago, and have been listening to them pretty regularly.
My favorites are "Miss Independent", the radio-favorite "Breakaway", "Because of You", "Behind These Hazel Eyes" (hey, I have hazel eyes too!) and either "Since U Been Gone" (I hate it when they don't spell out the damn word "YOU". It's THREE FREAKIN' LETTERS LONG!!!) or "Gone." "You Found Me" was already on my Azureshipping playlist, via recommendation, and I'm really starting to like "Beautiful Disaster."
...I have to admit it, the girl's got talent. A hell of a voice, though at times... *strangles air*
ANYWAY! I need help. (And this has nothing to do with any communities, or sporking out my ovaries with a hot ice cream scoop.) For all of you layout-savvy folks (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shigure?), I can't get my friends page to show up for the life of me. I grabbed a style from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
_premadelayouts, but the style was originally made for the LASTN (that is, my journal) only, not the FRIENDS page. Even when I went into the Modify Journal page and used the Raw edits to change all the LASTNs to FRIENDS, it still won't display the actual entries. But I can't figure out which variable I'm missing. HELP? (I don't think I can post the raw code here See below; the style "Grunge" is Style ID #650018. The Live Preview is here: CLICKY!
The tricky thing is that DOES NOT USE OVERRIDES. It's just a style ID, with nothing customized in the Overrides or custom colors areas.
