Talking to Ms. Graham was interesting and insight-granting, although I think she's a spiritualist and my comment about being an atheist was off-putting. I only brought it up because my lack of a belief in a god makes my birth name irrelevant (even if it wasn't the original inspiration for my current name.)
Why does everyone have to ask why I don't go by my legal name? It doesn't describe me as well as my pen name and that should be good enough for people who supposedly respect and know me.
You can't trust me to describe myself? ******** that noise. talk2hand

This whole red-and-yellow-eyed girl thing makes me want to write a story, poem, or both about the dream. Or at least something about the intersection of beauty and strangeness (two of my favourite things.)
*sigh*
I wish I wasn't so tired. I want to stay up and work on things. Oh well. crying

I had a really, really good night with John after the party. I think our friendship is finally mending. I'm so happy about this DLS I cannot describe. I am tearing up a bit as I type this post.
He's the way all religious people should be if they hope to have their religions survive: able to understand the perspectives of others and move outside of his own perspective for the sake of intellectual curiosity and consideration. Maybe he's more *politically* conservative than Dan and Tali, but I find myself having a lot more intellectual respect for him than for them. He's really come from behind and impressed me with his mental ability. As it should be. whee
