Skies Above

My random thoughts, ideas, and just me.

I love the band Boston. Try the song called Foreplay\Long Time if you're interested, genuine classic rock. Always helps pick up my mood.

It's been such a long time
I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me, it keeps on rollin'
Sail on, on a distant highway
I've got to keep on chasin' a dream
I've gotta be on my way
Wish there was something I could say.

Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on
You'll forget about me after I've been gone
And I take what I find, I don't want no more
It's just outside of your front door.

It's been such a long time. It's been such a long time.

Well I get so lonely when I am without you
But in my mind, deep in my mind,
I can't forget about you
Good times, and faces that remind me
I'm tryin' to forget your name and leave it all behind me
You're comin' back to find me.

Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on
You'll forget about me after I'v e been gone
And I take what I find, I don't want no more
It's just outside of y our front door.

It's been such a long time. It's been such a long time.

Yeah. It's been such a long time, I think I should be goin', yeah
And time dosnt wait for me, it keeps on rollin'
There's a long road, I've gotta stay in time with
I've got to keep on chasin' that dream, though I may never find it
I'm always just behind it.

Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' along
Takin' my time, just movin' along
Takin' my time, takin' my time...

It's been fogged over for the past few hours. The bay looks like a black abyss. I can't even see the water... Only a few streetlamps down my road. Took a walk outside earlier tonight in it, but it was a little frightening. Scary atmosphere. Headed back inside after a few minutes... Always trust my senses on stuff like this, however trivial it may be.

I won't be here Monday. I'm making a trip over to Biloxi, Mississippi, for a day. I'll be back sometime on Tuesday. Won't take any pictures this time... Just don't really feel like it, no point in taking pictures of a place I won't be at very long.

I'm such a dumbass sometimes. 4:22 AM, entire night spent developing the game I've worked on the past year and a half.

I see what game developers go through. Being the lead designer and project leader is not easy. Directing a team of people to Get Things Done is difficult, too.

Especially when your head is wobbling and you can barely type or stay awake.

Strangest dream I had last night...

I remember, before going to sleep, praying for Lynne to be happy with God and be happy and reunited with her mother.

I went to sleep shortly after that, around 9:30 PM.

I woke up several times during the night... Then finally got back to sleep at 5:30 AM. I woke up again... Except I was in a dream. I remember being at my old home. The one I lived at, in Central Florida, for 16 years.

I saw Lynne sleeping on my father's bed. When I walked into his room, she awoke. She started talking to me.

I can't remember everything she said. She referred to me by my true name, which few people actually know of.

She started telling me about how life here, while it was nice to be in, was short and unfulfilling... That she had to experience my love before she could leave.

After talking for a bit, I knelt down on the bed and hugged her tightly. As I stood up, she looked at me, and slowly - her body faded into thousands of blue, sparking, lights.

It collected into one large, sparking light, and rose into the air. As she did, my vision slowly faded to white and followed her, wherever she was going.

When I "came to," I was in a modern looking castle. It had television monitors on the wall that I was facing. I watched various facets of "life" outside of the castle. A peaceful world was shown. Slowly, they all stopped showing pictures of the outside, and all focused on Lynne's spirit, or energy. As they did, she materialized in front of me as the same blue light.

I asked if she could show herself once more.

She did. For the few moments that she was "visible" in the sense of appearing human, I leaned down and kissed her lightly on the lips. The first time I was ever able to do that with her.

She disappeared again, and collected in front of me. As she spoke a few words, I would assume I turned into energy as well, since my vision turned slightly clouded as I rose into the air with her. We passed through the castle ceiling and into the night sky, where she stayed in front of me.

A cresent Moon appeared in front of me, points facing upward... Suspended by a chain of silver spheres.

Two stars appeared next to it, on both sides.

She continued talking, and my vision faded out again... Then I woke up.

I don't know what to make of it... Some people I know just might know, however.
