I have had the straaaaaaaaaaangest dream last night.
I dreamt that it was late at night and I was walking along Beach Drive in Victoria B.C. The stars were bright and several shooting stars were seen.
I stopped to watch the stars and the clear night, when this covering the whole sky flying saucer/rocket ship covered all of the sky!
I glanced around to see if anyone else walking along, noticed the same thing as me and no. Noone else was looking up at the sky! Just me!!
All of a sudden from the rocket ship/flying saucer, came asteroids. Being shot towards the earth. 100's of them. Fast and furious. I gasped and several people, walking in front of me, turned to glance my way.
Then I noticed that everyone walking along the walkway/drive, were in period dress. It was turn of the last century!!!
I pointed up to the sky and everyone stopped, transfixed.
Then everyone began to run, as the asteroids hit around us.
Then the dream ended.
WHATEVER does/did this dream MEAN? WIERD, is an understatement.

Okay I have started my workout routine TODAY... Arghhhhhhhhhhhhh...
Why is there a photo of Lance Armstrong when I mention working out? He is my Inspiration. Big Time. Physically? I think that he is the Best Looking Male on this Planet. I just "like" looking at him. He looks good in clothes - especially jeans. What he has achieved in his life - Is beyond compare.
I am going to write to Oprah and tell her of my failings (5'6" and 187 lbs right this moment Oooooooooouch). That my Dreams Come True would be to meet Lance Armstrong on my Birthday - 40th - Which is March 16th, 2007. I can't believe it either. I would love to go for a Bike Ride with Lance Armstrong on my Birthday. After I have lost my weight.
My goal is 115 lbs on my birthday AND meeting Lance Armstrong. I have set other goals in my life - That have seemed rather insane to reach and I have achieved them. So this is just another "Goal."
72 lbs to lose.
Ooooooooooooooouch. LOL.
If Lance can beat Testicular Cancer I can lose the Weight Monster. Beginning today.
Lance? If you, by chance, read this? My world would begin and end, if you were to visit me or I met you somehow on my birthday in 2007. To ride a bike with you, would be a Dream Come True.
I will keep you posted, Dear Lance, of my progress.
Stay well.

Well, I just thought that I would quickly write... Another HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT day in Vancouver, B.C.
I am the "Mommy" of a 7-year old Dalmatian named Bandit. He has been QUITE a handful, while we have been together.
Lately he has been waking up every night at 2:00 a.m. with shaking his head incessantly (non-stop) and whining. So it has been making for me having rather TIRED days. Since we are both up from that point until the sun comes up.
I have done an online investigation for his variety of symptoms (he has others - which I will elaborate below.) I strongly don't believe in going to a Vet (unless it's a broken bone or his intestines are basically hanging out LOL). Home remedies/naturopath is my way.
So here are the online/home remedies I have found for his symptoms - Which he has all of the below. Don't get a Dalmatian if you want a low maintenance dog. Or a cling-on - He has hysterics if he does not "see" HIS human. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Well I have discovered that Bandit has ear mites. Transferrable by CATS. So yes, there has been a New Cat introduced into our home recently. I call her FatCat (which she is - nasty name but she is a Foster Cat and I refuse to name her further than that - due to not wanting to form an attachment for when she is adopted from our home.) So yayyyyyyyyyyyy, FatCat brought EarMites presents for Bandit. So the solution is Vitamin E oil and Olive Oil to be massage into his ears. Great!!!!!
The bonus of the Olive Oil is that it has a dual purpose. I pour it onto his morning dish of food (1 capful) and this works for his excessively DRY skin. Which is shown by his incessant scratching. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
Yogurt (again 1 capful) is thrown onto his foodstuff/morning. This removes the itchiness/dry skin too.
Garlic pills - For removal of fleas. Seems that fleas are classified as "vampiric" therefore do not like garlic. Sorry, VERY bad joke there. LOL But he sweats out the garlic and it "supposedly" kills the fleas. So 3 pills/day. Morning.
Also black tea is to remove his red patches/itchy patches of skin.
This is all DAILY. Yeeeeeeeeeeeehaw.
Takes 1 week/10 days for treatment to "start" to make a difference.
I will keep an online/daily journal here to make notes if Bandit is BETTER.
Natural/home remedies solutions vs. dragging him off to the Vet for drugs/other medications. Wonder IF home remedies WORK? I will give it ONE FULL MONTH for a difference to be noted. i.e. No more of his symptoms - None. Therefore SUCCESS. Otherwise after the September long weekend Bandit is being dragged, literally, kicking and whining, off to the Vet.
With me very angry that the Home Remedies did not work. But I found these "remedies" on the PetSmart website. So let's see if they are telling the Truth - Home remedy wise.
P.S.
I have continued to try to post PHOTOS here... Not cut'n'paste but URL linkage and NOT WORKING would appreciatte HELP HERE. WHY DOESN'T my photo uploading work in any way here? P's me off, as I had a really CUTE photo of a Dalmation to post...

Okay here is my dream from last night - Totally wierd - Don't know from "where" in my brain it came from (other than the quote of mine, when interviewed for News reporters at the end).
We (Dad, Michelle and I) were at a parade, which had just finished, we were walking along the road, going around people, to get back to the parking lot, then to the Vancouver Hotel (where Dad and Michelle were staying).
When we came up to some people being arrested, some were on their knees (still quite drunk, sweaty) with their hands behind their backs, handcuffed, or being handcuffed. Approx. 4 people like this, 6-8 cops in attendance.
We continued on walking.
Shortly thereinafter, I got separated from Dad and Michelle, as I knew where they were staying, it was no big deal.
Up ahead I saw 2 people being detained, on a raised platform. They were elderly Asians (don't know why that was important, but they were). On the left was an elderly woman, in typical asian ware. Big bamboo hat, etc. Beside her was, I thought, was her husband, as they were making allot of hand gestures and talk (not English).
In front of the male, to the right, was a long bamboo pole, which had a sharp knife on one end. It "seemed" to be just lying there, "just" out of his reach. Then I noticed he was handcuffed, on his knees, but minutes before he had not been.
All of a sudden, there was a scuffle, behind the raised platform, of the female Asian. All police officers, on the raised platform, rushed to investigate, and yes, left the platform.
Staged?
In a split second, the male asian, kicked the knife/bamboo pole towards the female.
Noone else in the crowd around me, noticed. Until the female Asian, screamed bloody murder (in her language) and raised the pole. Jerking it forward towards the crowds/me included below. She continued to gesture, wildly, in a circle. The police below continued to be occupied.
Someone handed me a bamboo pole, with a rounded hook on the end - Why me? I have no answer for this. I ran and jumped onto the raised platform and engaged her with battling poles. Straight from Star Wars, I thought, with my proficiency. Luke Skywalker would be proud. Somehow after many hits of our "poles/light sabers" I disarmed her.
Knocking her pole away. During the police below, noticed my plight and rushed towards the raised platform. Waiting until I disarmed her.
Then they rushed forward and handcuffed her, and led her away.
Newspaper reporters/mikes galore rushed towards me, asking me, "How did you know how to disarm the angered, armed female?"
"The force was strong within me this night. I was a strong Jedi tonight. Luke and Howie, of Big Brother Allstars, would have been proud of me tonight."
Then I stepped off of the raised platform, and melted into the crowd.
The next morning, at the Hotel, Dad awoke me with the newspaper, showing pictures of me on the stage. The photos had been altered, that the 2 of us were now holding light sabers. The heading, "The force was with her."
Throughout our breakfast on the terrace (scene stolen straight from Pretty Woman LOL) except the characters were Dad, Michelle and me - There were knocks on the door and gifts of appreciation were being brought up by the busboys for me. One a cheque for 250$, nike runners, with a note saying, 'Thanks for being so quick on your feet!' Gift baskets (x10) and all the while my Dad shaking his head.
Later on in the news, we heard those elderly couple were drug lords. Hah. Only in Vancouver, China Town.
Decipher this dream HAHAHAHAHA Why? LOL
