Feb. 11th, 2004 12:45 pmDREAM : wandering around Bath in the darkness, trying to fill a bottle of water from every fountain. There were a lot more fountains than I actually remembered in Bath. My dad was waiting for me to have filled the bottle(*).
Oh - and a comment elsewhere made me remember one of the dreams I had forgotten - in that dream, I was trekking across some mountains with Aragorn. Handy on all sorts of levels, eh? These mountains were kind of like salt deserts, white and sparkling and arid. The memory's a funny thing...
(*)I'm having a lot of vaguely unpleasant dreams involving missing my dad at the moment, and my psychoemotional health is generally poor - Monday evening I cried on the bus journey all the way from Bristol to Yate :( Not like me at all - I'm emotional, but fairly quiet and reserved. All I can remember thinking is how much I wanted to go back to being little, to being one of the kids I could see in lit-up houses, eating tea, doing homework and watching TV. Slept from about 8 PM to about 9 AM on Tuesday, and after throwing up my toast decided to take a day off sick. I need to take more care of myself - I've plunged into a period of ascetism and self-determination. More spoiling of myself is needed, even if it is silly and frivolous :)

It's a good thing I can somehow resist buying the stuff when I'm in the grocery store (price?), because I'd be very unhealthy. :)

And yeah - although I mostly resist in my own home, my brother is a total snack food addict (eating vegetables, pasta or rice all give him "gut ache"), so I usually munch out at his place. Plus we're generally slightly drunk or stoned, and that inevitably leads to munchies.
