Insomnioccoliiii!!!

Slept.like.ass.

oh yeah, and my neck hurts. lots.

I went to bed kinda early for a Dawn Dawn, but I had a boy to shnuggle with and keep my toes warm, and all was blissful for a moment. Then, my mind started getting all noisy-static-y, and I wondered for a while whether or not dryer sheets would work on noodly-heads, and decided instead to simply think of someplace tranquil and serene, and I kinda slept for a little bit. But then my mind went blank, and the dreams wouldn't visit, and I think my head got worried because my brain wasn't working right, not giving me dreams and shtuff. Then again, I didn't even think about it at the time, BUT, I've had two nights of dreams involving adorable mice, who, according to this dream dictionary thinger, indicate someone plotting against me in secrecy. Because usually, people plot against you right in your face, right?

The thing is, the first mouse dream included me gnawing on its face, and it ran back terrified to its family, telling of my insatiable, intense hunger. Meg Ryan hung from a small golden ring where they use to hang people, and won some kinda ho-down. I have no idea.

Oh, but the mouse dream the next night, meaning Saturday, included large posters of sharpshinyclaws everywhere on Rt. 43 in Kent, and I mused about her taking over the world so cleverly. If anyone were to take over the world in such a way, it'd be her.

BUT, I had no dreams last night. I don't think I slept in long enough intervals to do so. Instead, my neck kinked up, and I tossed and turned, watched snow fall outside my window, twinkling in the beams of the streelight streaming into my room. tiktiktok slept peacefully, and I watched, both peaceful in having him there and envious of his sleep.

I decided at around 6AM to get up. Of course, I didn't move until about 6:20, and that was simply because I couldn't stand the pain in my shoulder anymore. I walked past wraptboy, who was on the 'puter, poured out a couple ibuprofen and drank some milk while talking with wraptboy about snow and plans, winter breaks, keys and the art studio. I then showed him how to wear his scarf in such a way that it is useful. Or, at least it should be. Maybe not...I hope so.

I woke tiktiktok with smooches instead of the alarm clock, and we shnuggled just a li'l more, and he left for work begrudgingly.

It is now 9:37 A.M. I have been perusing My Space for a couple hours, found some people I actually know and added them, posted comments to others, added the pic of me and ciani from Capsule as a user pic (hope you don't mind! I love that pic!)

BTW...ciani...there was some debate about how your LJ name is pronounced. Is it with a "ch," "K," or "s" sound in the beginning??? Inquiring minds wanna know.~;)

Applied for a couple jobs this weekend. Hopefully something will come of it.

Also, spoke with several of the residents of Howe House. I am going out to visit them soon. I miss them all so very much. It was great talking on the phone with them...I could totally see their faces and expressions as we spoke and laughed. It warmed my heart to know they are all doing so well.

OK, time to put on some slippers. My toes are cold, and I don't have a tiktiktok here to warm them again this morning. ~8/

insomnia is killing me too...I MAYBE had 3 hours of sleep this morning! I remember looking at the clock at 4:37 & thinking this is 4 the birds!!!!

Butthead thought 6AM was the rightful birdie-time...he started screeching about then. Fucker.

[ciani.livejournal.com]

why would I mind you using that picture?? I love being seen with beautiful women :D

I pronounce it See-Ah-Nee. I've heard people say Chee-Ah-Nee but I like the See-Ah-Nee better. It's how I've always heard it in my head.

Juuust out of curiosity, what is 'Ciani?' (Well, besides you, I mean. What is the origin of the word.)

[ciani.livejournal.com]

well.. there is this book by CS Friedman, Black Sun Rising. In it is a character by the name of Ciani. way back when in a land far far away when lions roamed freely.... (ok, well Boston in the early 90s) I was joining a BDSM organization and needed to choose a scene name for the bbs and parties. Up until then I just went by my real name. I had nicks for a variety of online things: one was Adiana and one was Ciani. Since you only asked about Ciani you don't get the story of Adi :) hehe.
Anyway.. I had chosen Ciani way back before because I really liked this strong magical woman in the CS Friedman books. And Adiana didn't feel appropriate for the purpose I was about to give the name. Ciani did.
It got to a point where many of my RL friends would call me Ciani because I was pretty active in the BDSM scene on the east coast. So though they all knew my real name, they would defer to the name Ciani in front of strangers. We all had our special scene names except for the ones who were authors or otherwise publicly "famous" for this aspect of their lifestyle. I guess not all regions do that as much as we did in MA/NYC. But it's illegal in MA. so...

yeah eventually we all got livejournals so I used the name ciani here.

too much info?

:)

[thedarksiren.livejournal.com]

that's a pretty keen story, imo.

I think I need to make a new meme thingie and post an entry asking for the origins of everybody's LJ names.

[thedarksiren.livejournal.com]

*blushes* here, here.~;)

And thank you...me and the Inhabitants of Jawndomay were discussing its proper pronunciation last night. I can't remember who had the right way, but yeah.

Oh! wraptboy wanted to know if you happened to get any pics from the last night gallery? He wanted to see them, but no one ever posted any, or if they did, he missed 'em.

[ciani.livejournal.com]

I can't remember.. I will look and see. I know a few people had cameras.

[tiktiktok.livejournal.com]

and he left for work begrudgingly

VERY begrudgingly.




You are going to give me an inaccurate reputation as a 'toe slut'.

[thedarksiren.livejournal.com]

HA HA HA!!!

Well, you haven't sucked mine yet, so I think you're off the hook for now.~;D

stay away from lifesize bread mixers ...

[thedarksiren.livejournal.com]

eww!!!

*snrkle*

[furious-lil.livejournal.com]

OK, I officially lost it right here:

Meg Ryan hung from a small golden ring where they use to hang people, and won some kinda ho-down. I have no idea.

*GRINS*

Re: *snrkle*

[tete6871.livejournal.com]

her and i were discussing the movie city of angels last week, maybe that is where it came from...only her dream sounds more demonic than angelic... leave it to dawn ;)

Re: *snrkle*

[furious-lil.livejournal.com]

But what brought on the ho-down??? *gigglezzzzz*

I wonder what the nutritional value of a mouse face is... *curious*

Re: *snrkle*

[tete6871.livejournal.com]

if the mouse still has cheese crumbs on its face, that would be quite a nutritional snack...

as for the ho down...who knows!! that is a nightmare!!

Re: *snrkle*

[thedarksiren.livejournal.com]

yes, the ho-down WAS a nightmare. I think Meg was wearing checkers too...ack!

Re: *snrkle*

[thedarksiren.livejournal.com]

go back and read my reply to furious_lil's first comment. Nothing was demonic about the dream...Meg was still alive and shtuff.

Re: *snrkle*

[thedarksiren.livejournal.com]

see, she wasn't hanging as in by her neck though. She put her forefinger in the ring, and had the upper-body strength to hold herself up. I watched from afar, kinda bummed because I was suppose to do this, but didn't have the strength to.

my dreams are so friggin' weird.

[jjjiii]

Your boyfriend seems very cool. You both are pretty lucky to have each other :)

[thedarksiren.livejournal.com]

yeah, he's a great guy.
*smiles*

Thanks guppy.
