Raine's Secret Garden

 
Expecting?

I dreamed I was pregnant.

I’ve always been pretty good at remembering my dreams. And if you remember them, you know some seem to stand out more than others. This one did.

There’s nothing unusual about dreaming about a pregnancy (and yes, it was just a dream). I’ve done it often. But I’ve never dreamed about myself being pregnant—and so waddling, call-in-the tow-motor, Mount St. Helen’s pregnant at that. And it was so amazingly vivid!

Most dream interpretations claim it symbolizes a new beginning, new growth, or growing creativity in one’s life.
That would be nice. :yes:

Of course, in the dream I was also struggling with my little piece of luggage, trying to get it down the stairs on my way to the hospital to deliver.

Subtle much, subconscious? :poke:

Because I MISS FLOWERS!!!!
I MISS SEEING GRASS!!!!
I MISS PROOF THAT THE SKY IS ACTUALLY BLUE!!!!
I MISS SEEING COLORS OTHER THAN WHITE, DARK, AND PEWTER GRAY!!!!

I needed that picture. Feeling better now.

Personal Summer

*****
I’ve had a low-grade fever for a few days that doesn’t want to go away. Just enough to make functioning normally difficult, but not enough to go running to urgent care.
Irritating!
So I’m going for links to more interesting blogs at the moment, lol.

Amie Stuart is doing her 14 days of Love promo again. Meet authors, get free books. Yup. That’s love. :cloud9:

And blog buddy Bernita Harris is part of a newly-released anthology—Weirdly, Volume III, with a brand new Lillie St. Claire story. Check it out. :yes:

Ever Have…

*****
…One of those weeks that just seemed totally, unbelievably exhausting?
Or the urge to just curl up in bed and wait out the winter?

Or a spiteful, possibly violent impulse you’re just too nice (or worried about getting busted) to act on?
Yeah.
That one. :yes:
Bring it to the CHICAS site today. We’re taking care of business. :pow:

A Different POV

Cody_

Hello there.
I’m Cody. Aka Code. Codyman. Codybear. The Codester.
I own the human, Raine, who occasionally operates this blog. She’s into print galley edits at the mo, and I figured I’d fill in just this once. I mean, hey—what price Fancy Feast?

Raine and I are being interviewed today and tomorrow at author Jody Wallace’s MEAN KITTY blog.
And don’t expect any of that LOL Cats stuff. Mean Kitty and I don’t play that crap.
Come and say hi if you get a chance. Love to meet ya.
Bring tuna. Will love ya even more. :wink:

Flash Fic

*****
The latest Clarity of Night contest is over.
I did enter. I didn’t expect to win. But I liked the short I came up with anyway.
The process was sort of like this, over a period of weeks:
“Maybe I should enter. A challenge might do me good.”
“Nah.”
“The brain could use a little stimulation.”
“It’s the holidays. Get real.”
“Holidays over. Some nice entries there.”
“It’s too late. You’ll never come up with anything decent.”
“Hey, I’ve got a premise.”
“It’s too late.”
“If I don’t do something with it, I’ll just be pissed off at myself.”
“Fine. Knock yourself out.” :roll:

The final short story is posted after the break below.
And I’m blogging at the CHICAS site today. Please join us. :wink:
