Hope you have a Happy (safe) Halloween!

A Few Features for your viewing pleasure:

I don't know what the heck is going on ... either my computer is going bonkers (no viruses found etc.) or my internet service is having a nervous breakdown or DA just hates me right now, pick one or all. I don't know what's going on, but I can't get pages to completely load or they load then the connection is reset etc. ... blah, blah, blah. Frustration, definitely!

I just need to say:
Thank you for your wonderful comments and for the all the great favs. I appreciate each and every one of you. ^^ Hopefully, this frustrating situation will be cleared up soon and I can answer each of you in a more personal response, but for now: Thank You!

Hope your day is a good one!

I'm curious, what is it like to just sleep for like, let's say 8 hours? I have never been able to 'call it a day', then lay down and drift off into the land of quiet for 8 consecutive hours (hah, quiet-no. I dream, so not quiet really).
No,I've never done this 8 hours of sleep thing, unless I was sick or hadn't slept at all for 2-3 days. I do nap, lightly, off and on. Naps are awesome, they add up you know, eventually. I just drift off for 10-20 minutes (it's voluntary) and wake feeling refreshed (usually).
But ...
The doctors say I need 'real' sleep ... so ... grr, okay!
There are times when I do try to partake in the land of slumber. 'They' (yeah, 'them' say I need it (sleep) to live. Sooo I doooo try and if I'm 'lucky', I can actually sleep about 4 hours ... after which I feel like a slug, a slower than slooooow slug who neeeeeds much coffee. (*now there is a pretty picture )
And of course ...
There are the people who think 'they' are the authority on all things normal, um, let's call those a subcategory of 'them' only more vocal ... 'those thems' think changing my sleep pattern (to theirs of course) is the thing to do to fix everything ... (fix? I need fixing? oi!) Ugh, so I am always trying to change my sleep habits, so that I can be a 'day' person. A 'day' person? Yep, you know, um normal *cough* ... I am told (often) a 'day' person' gets up at 5:30 a.m. works 'til 6:00 p. m. ... blah, blah, blah ... Oh, sorry I think I nodded off.
um ...
Before you get the wrong idea, I have/do work my butt off and enjoy it (working), so that's not the reason I get all the guff about getting on a normal sleep regiment ... *pauses to think* Actually, I think it is because I am not always in sync with everyone else's sense of time ... time does not control my output or me ... * the angry mob in the backgound chants* not normal, must eliminate, must eliminate ... LOL, I can't RAnt worth a flip, soooo I will stop (for now) ...
Anyway, I'd like to know how much sleep you need to survive annnnnd what do you do when you can't sleep, if anything? (Don't worry, I firmly believe that what is right for you and keeps you healthy is, um 'normal'.)

Peace,

This is a journal for showing off other artist's AWESOME work!

Got this from *JohnTheJragon's journal and it's in *FriendlyButterfly's also.

These are the rules(edited by me a bit):

1- Be one of the first 14 people commenting on this journal entry, and I will add you to the Promotional List

2- For each of the first 14 people answering this journal I will put his/her avatar and three deviations from his/her gallery on the list.

3- If you answer, *you could, but don't have to do the same in your journal, putting me in the first spot (if you want), completing the list with 14 other people.(I changed this part, it did say '*you'll have to', but I don't like to be told what to do LOL, so I try not to do that to others. )

The idea of this is not to get a free feature, but to put art here to share with everyone.

Here goes:

Pink Floyd - High Hopes Music Video w/lyrics [link]

07/28/09:Today's Song:
Pink Floyd-Comfortably Numb [link]
The lyrics:

Hello.
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?

Come on, now.
I hear youre feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.

Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts:
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I cant explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

Ok.
Just a little pinprick. [ping]
Therell be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up?
I do believe its working. good.
Thatll keep you going for the show.
Come on its time to go.

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.

In my last journal I asked people what their background/theme music would be for that day, week etc. This one is sooo good for how I've been feeling lately (thanks ~Allysinnia ) [link]

Suddenly-Superchic[k]

She feels lost in her own life
Treading water just to keep from slipping under
And she wonders if she's where she's supposed to be
Tired of trying to do it right
Her dreams are just too far away to see how steps she's making might be taking her to who she'll be

And suddenly it isn't what it used to be
And after all this time it worked out just fine
And suddenly i am where i'm supposed to be
And after all the tears, i was supposed to be here

She feels locked in her own life
Scared of what she might lose
If she moves away from who she was
And she's afraid of being free
There's a way she knows is right
And she can't feel the things she knows and so each step she's taking
Is a step of faith towards who she'll be

And suddenly it isn't what it used to be
And after all this time it worked out just fine
And suddenly i am where i'm supposed to be
And after all the tears, i was supposed to be here

And here where the night is darkest black
She feels the fear
And the light is farthest back
And through her tears
She can see the dawn
Its coming skies will clear
And the light will find her where she's always been

And suddenly it isn't what it used to be
And after all this time it worked out just fine
And suddenly i am where i'm supposed to be
And after all the tears, i was supposed to be here



But ... this is how I feel today [link] lol.

One Girl Revolution-Superchic[k]


I wear a disguise
I'm just your average Jane
The super doesn't stand for model
But that doesn't mean I'm plain
If all you see is how I look
You miss the super chick within
And I christen you titanic underestimate and swim
I've got the rifle gonna be myself
I've got the rifle gonna be myself
I've got the rifle gonna be myself
I've got the rifle gonna be myself
(CHORUS)
And I'll be everything that I wanna be
I am confidence in insecurity
I am a voice yet waiting to be heard
I'll shoot the shot, bang, that you hear round the world

And I'm a one girl revolution

I'm a one girl revolution
I'm a one girl revolution

Some people see the revolution but most only the see girl
I can lose my hard earned freedom if my fear defines my world
I declare my independence from the critics and their stones
I can find my revolution I can learn to stand alone...

(CHORUS)
And I'll be everything that I want to be
I am confidence in insecurity
I am a voice yet waiting to be heard
I'll shoot the shot, bang, that you hear round the world...

And I'm a one girl revolution

I'm a one girl revolution
I'm a one girl revolution

(And I'm a one girl revolution

I'm a one girl revolution

And I'm a one girl revolution)

(CHORUS)
And I'll be everything that I wanna be
I am confidence in insecurity
I am a voice yet waiting to be heard
I'll shoot the shot, bang, that you hear round the world


Everything that I want to be
I am confidence in insecurity
I am a voice yet waiting to be heard
I'll shoot the shot, bang, that you hear round the world

And I'm a one girl revolution
I'm a one girl revolution
