Or happy non-descript seasonal festivities. I hope your yule-tide will be gay, just watch out for missiles. What with the war on christmas and all.<\/p>\n<p>Today would be a good day to check out the <a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/greetz.html\">greetz page<\/a> too. Just to see a little snow. And to see that it has been upated after almost a year&#8217;s worth of inactivity. Thank you Carole!<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been a nice Christmas Eve Day so far. I went up to the animals and said hello. When the barn is closed I can never be sure that I can see the animals. Of course they have to be fed every day, but I never know exactly when that will be. 10.30 seems like a likely time, and it worked today. It always makes my days a little better when I can see the goats. And I gave them some christmas treats of course. And said merry christmas to Jannie and her mother, they&#8217;re the ones who feed the animals when the playground is closed. Nice people.<\/p>\n<p>I had an amazing dream last night. I won&#8217;t go into too much detail. Partly because the details are fading from my mind. Partly because everyone hates to read about others&#8217; dreams. And partly because words can&#8217;t do it justice. It was beautiful, I went on a wonderful journey. I even saw a lion, I thought maybe I was in Narnia haha. It was a female lion though, no mane. And more beautiful things happened. And I knew I was dreaming. I remember thinking, in the dream, that I had never seen these places before, it must be a dream.<\/p>\n<p>And when the dream was over I woke myself up. I was in the dream, I knew I had accomplished what I wanted. I wanted to wake up. So I started shaking. In the dream. And the dream faded and I was myself, in bed, shaking myself to wake up. What an odd, odd feeling. Like on TV, when you see a dissolve from dream to reality. When Bart is dreaming that he won first prize in a school contest. The teachers are saying &#8220;first prize, first prize, first prize&#8221; and then Bart wakes up and the scene disolves into Lisa, going &#8220;first prize, first prize, first prize&#8221;. That was sort of what it was like. Does that make sense? I was in the dream, shaking my body around and it disolved into reality, where I was also shaking my body around. In bed. I am rambling, yes? It&#8217;s just not often that happens. The awareness in the dream, that it is a dream. And being in control like that, forcing myself to wake up. I remember at one point in the dream I was actually worried I&#8217;d wake up. Because I wasn&#8217;t finished with what I was doing. So I thought to myself &#8220;I hope I don&#8217;t wake up yet&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p>Oh darn, I promised not to go into detail. Too late now. But once again, everybody, merry christmas! Whether you celebrate today or tomorrow or some other day, or not at all. I&#8217;m not into the religion, my family isn&#8217;t big on traditions. But that doesn&#8217;t mean I can&#8217;t make it a happy day. All the commercialism, all the war on christmas, all the loneliness. It is only as important as you let it be, and today I won&#8217;t let it be important to me.<\/p>\n<p>Love you all, love you all much. You are my presents, and I&#8217;d wrap you all up in love if I could.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s Christmas Eve&#8217;s day.
