I decided to send Maliheh an email letting her know I’ve been both worried and curious as to what’s going on and would really like her to know I’m here for her if she’d like to talk, and I did get a response.

Unfortunately, my nightmare did have meaning; it was just a bit delayed for some reason. But to think that I might now be able to pick up on other people’s pending disasters, late or not, through any nightmares I have that involve them is cool, creepy and depressing all rolled in one. Just like with myself, it serves no purpose other than to prolong my stress. I can’t stop whatever disaster is coming from coming just because I may have a nightmare warning me that trouble’s ahead. So it’s frustrating.

She’s just been having mixed emotions. She’s guilty yet happy her place was spared. She said she doesn’t know why but she keeps driving through the areas where they’re bulldozing damaged homes. She said she was sorry if she seems like she doesn’t care and that others have said she seems distant lately, too. She said she’s trying to make a comeback and asked how I was. So I guess no, she’s not slowly dumping me. We’ll see how I feel about that in a week if I don’t hear from her by then.

I’m starting to worry about Nane and think that maybe her silence isn’t personal after all. There’s only so much you can hide from your friends on Facebook if that’s what she’s doing which really doesn’t make much sense when I think about it. I would think that if she were really that sick of me or uncomfortable with me, she’d just dump me. But there’s been absolutely no activity that I know of from her. No posts, no new friends, no “liking” anything, no nothing. To make matters more baffling is that no one else has posted on her wall either. I went and checked and I don’t see any way to suddenly start hiding things people post on my wall from others. But aren’t others just as curious as to where the hell she’s been? I’m just glad I haven’t had any nightmares about her unless they too, are going to be a bit late in coming.

I had a dream last night that will probably have me scream if it comes true. Not so much because it’s the most horrible thing to have happen, but just because my accuracy rate is going from cool to creepy and starting to freak out even me.

The part I didn’t like about the dream was that it took place in a hotel. To back up a bit, pretty much ever since he got laid off I’ve had a vibe about him not being able to get a job until September. In the dream, I lay in bed and watched him leave for work through the window in the old 1950s pickup we don’t have with wooden rails around the back. Then I ran to my sister who was one of the hotel’s housekeepers, as funny as that may sound. She was sweeping out a stairwell when I came crying to her that I had a dream that Tom would be laid off from his new job in just a few months on December 6th which was a Monday.

Well, a few months would mean the job started around September, and when I checked the calendar, December 6th actually is on a Monday this year. It’s just too damn weird at times, the things I dream.

Eileen left a message on the cell to tell me she’s thinking of me. I emailed her and let her know I couldn’t extend my other phone but would call her once I get it up and running again.

Tom has to go to the food subsidy people on Monday to show his ID, get fingerprinted, and sign some forms, and within the next 12 months, I’ll have to go in, too. The medical thing’s on its way through, too. I guess they’re going to give us a card we take to the free clinic. I just wish we’d known about the Turk and this stuff when he first got laid off the first time in late 2008! Our lives could’ve been so much easier. Yeah, God could have helped us. He could also let me win the house I entered to win and really help us out, but I know that’s not going to happen.

The troll had fallen into a routine of checking out my blog 1-2 times every other day or so. Then I saw I got 21 views from her just today and was like, what have I done to get so many views from her? Then I realized she probably found Kim’s newest account through my ‘recent visitors’ section and was jumping back and forth between the two even though her blog’s marked ‘friends only’, damn it. I should’ve hidden it. Then again, I can’t protect everybody from this sicko, can I?
