So this is exciting:
Yesterday I lucid-dreamed. :O

Lucid dreaming, for those of you who don't know, is when you're dreaming and become aware of it. In this you are able to take control of your dream and go wherever you want, do whatever you want, etc. It becomes your own separate world.

So I dreamed that I was in this big house, and I was alone except for like, some spirit or something that kept talking to me. All of a sudden, I realized, "hey, I'm dreaming!" and I remembered lucid dreaming and decided to take control of my dream. So the first thing I wanted to do was leave the house and see if I could find Giovanni Ribisi anywhere closeby. BWAHA. But I tried to leave and the doors were all locked, so I couldn't. So I was stuck inside, and went around trying on clothes and talking on the phone. Sadly it was rather ordinary. But then the spirit or whatever started being mean to me and telling me it was going to push me out of the window. Blah, blah. I didn't pay attention to it. Shortly after, I woke up.

I think I need more 'training' to be able to explore my dreams more thoroughly. That was my first experience ever with lucid-dreaming, so that's why it was such a lame dream, probably. I mean, aren't you supposed to be able to fly and stuff? I wanted to go to Europe or something! Dang.

But anyway, yup. It was extremely cool.

And I am very, very close to self-publishing my collection of short stories.
I'm not sure what the title will be, yet. But the stories are all about the lives of ordinary girls with different circumstances. There will be about 10-12 stories total, each about 2-4 (full) pages...which is probably like 4-8 book pages. Anyway. I'm using lulu.com to self-publish, 'cause it's pretty cheap, and you can sell your book on there for a 20% commission. AND you can sell it on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

CAN'T wait!
I'll probably be the first person from Chattahoochee to have ever actually published a book. WEEEE!
