Dreams of Hotels

wolven7John Williams - [The Imperial March]--- Dreamed of wandering through hotels, again, of loking for people during a convention, only there was something Twilight Zone-ish, or AncientCurse-esque about people slowly becoming the costumes they wore. Something about the mall in my head, as well, but it's hazy, overlapping, just symbols of placement.
LUXT - [Nerve]--- Last night the group of us went to The Vortex, as per usual,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
michette and wacko1138 joining us in what I hope is going to be a regular thing. We made a damned good showing, last night, and we had a lot of fun. By which I mean that we fucking won, and everyone was completely surprised. Go Team.
Today, second day of classes, gotta figure out what I'm going to do about the auditing thing, in that I may simply not have the Time to stand in the line to put those forms in.
Tom Waits - [Walk Away]--- Something else in the dream about being on the run from someone or something. A situation, or a murder, or a self-defence killing. And in that place, the hotel was a bit sleazier, not as Downtown Hilton/Hyatt as it usually is... The knowledge that even though it wasn't my fault, the police would arrest me for murder, if they didn't kill me, outright.
MDFMK - [Torpedoes]--- So. Today, people, persons, friends of mine, tell me something you're planning. Tell me something you've got brewing in the line, as the kids say (no kids say that, but wouldn't it be awesome if they did?). I want to know what bits and pieces you're putting together to make the new year, in as much as you can talk about them, without the soap-bubble popping, you get me? Describe the edges and the contours of it, tell me the What Is, not the Hope To Be's, because spoken hope is like strong hot wind to a soap bubble. (Bif Naked - [Only the Girl]). The very thing that gave it life will rip it assunder, as it were. So careful.
Describe it to me, tell me your plans, and then tell me what you would like me to do, if I can/could. I don't presume to think that you need me (but you better fucking believe that you need me ^_^), so I'll just ask what you might possibly like from me.
Jack Off Jill - [Surgery]--- My resources are... Well. My resources are what they are. And what I don't have, I can probably find for you.
But I'd like to say, right now, that what has been, thus far, of 2008, is Balanced. some bad, some really bad, followed by good, and Really Good. And I thank you for that. All of you. So, let's resolve to continue to be there for each other, whenever possible, eh? I'm not pushing, I'm not prodding you and saying "be my friend, damn it;" I'm just saying that this is nice, what we have, here, and let's keep it going.
But Plans. Yours. Your situations and what you're doing with them.
Res - [I've Known The Garden]--- We'll talk more, later.

Date: 2008-01-10 05:49 pm (UTC)800+ sales of MSU last month. I expect 2500+ next quarter, and assuming a reprint or two, 10000+ during 2008.
I've been invited as an all-expenses paid guest to I-Con in New York this April. It's a mini-DragonCon. Of all the things I never expected...
You can help this one by just mentioning it. It's a virus, of sorts.
Home improvement. Bonus points if I can figure out how to install solar panels; the board is already interested, and there would be a massive differential on 90+ people buying it rather than one.
Probably can't help this one, much.
(And you knew I was going to say this one, too) Heartwork. I'm keeping my eyes open for the sign, but in the meantime I'm de-cluttering my emotions and keeping company with some nice people.
I'd be much obliged if you introduced me to various nice people (I'm especially curious about Spaerkana, whatever aspect she takes), but mostly tell me what you see of me and the people with whom I keep company. If you're talking about doing deep work, I'd say help me figure out the paths I need, and keep my heart free of that which it does not need.
More dancing. Heck, at this point you can look at my resolutions for this year to map out how 2008 looks for me.
Finally, if you got my previous e-mail, could you answer the question contained therein?

Date: 2008-01-11 09:26 am (UTC)After JET, I have surprisingly soft plans. And this from the person who usually plans things at least 2 years in advance. I'd like to come back and ease back into live in America. I think, because I get the suspicion that as I'll be coming back after the start of the new school year, that I won't be hired to be a full time english teacher when I come back. My incomplete teaching certificate probably has a lot to do with this suspicion. And if I did get a teaching job right as I got back, I think I would die under the workload and stress of such a demanding profession (ie: the first year of teaching). So I'm thinking that I would like to get a supply job or a substitute job while working on those last few things my certificate needs so that maybe I'll get one of those permanent teaching positions sometime next year (either after winter break or the 2009-2010 school year). I'm not sure how this is going to work out, and lets say that if nothing else I'm working towards being happy and having enough money to make feel like I'm not lacking and can do and buy the things I want. And that happiness entails all aspects of happiness, job gratification, love, home, family, metal, stressfree, and not brain stupid. As well as other aspects I have forgotten to name.
Good thoughts, introductions to people who work in GOOD private schools that pay their teachers decently and don't quote the bible (I don't know how much horizons pays and I'm not sure I'm willing to drive that distance everyday, but it would put me near friends after work . . ., but that's not the only private school I'm looking at ), and the like would be helpful. Mainly the good thoughts right now as I'm terrified of making the steps to actually get me set on a CAREER. But I know I'll have to start looking at those come April or so.
