(okay, it’s been a long day, this is how I remember it; “it” being an important sight.)
Anyway, up…in the sky… two clouds next to each other… the one on the left looka lika flying-fish facing downward. On the right, ...you remember what I wrote about the ‘fanned-out + spire’ “here:”http://www.43things.com/entries/view/5904022 -Well it was that, but upside-down.

Recently made a trip to a ‘very bad area,’ had bad dreams there; very tired, possible lost time – a coupla hours, maybe.
. 3 weeks ago

Was watching some clouds on and off today, (mostly-not); when I saw one that looked much like an upside-down bull’s head, then I looked near it & saw what much-appeard to be a crown & a side-view of a skull and an X !! (never-mind the crudity of the picture – the clouds were more realistic).
I also got to see a few smaller black birds chasing a crow away for a couple-hundred yards! (They usually only chase them for 50-60 yards – so he must’ve got their last chick!) 1 month ago

• Was laying there trying to get to sleep; thinking. “Choices are hard” (Which I may’ve thought in other words before; and it may’ve been a different thought that was neat.) Anyway, it was pretty neat, and I started having the feeling that my mind was occupying space several feet out in the aether [sic]!
  Anyway, I got a “good hour” of “sleep,” and went to work. Almost immediately, I had a feeling that my “go-to shoes,” (that usually feel fine), felt terrible on my feet!
  Work was terribly hard; I’m guessing, (with the help of a professional guesser), that I moved about 4-tons of dirt! (And this was not the easy-kind of digging where you get to step on your shovel, either; this was bend-over and spend all your arm-power jamming the shovel into the dirt horizontally, then stand up with a shovel-full of dirt!!)
  At one point I started chanting with each shovel-full, “dirt.” ... “dirt.” ... “dirt.”
  I got home – and before I knew it, I had a glass of water, a glass of juice, and a glass of pop, all sitting there in front of me, and I was drinking back and forth among them. Three days later & my lips are still chapped from the dehydration & such.
  At one point I came back to the pile of rocks, where my boss and another guy already had 1/2 a wheelbarrow. By the time they got it full, the boss turned around to help fill mine, and I had filled mine already. (That kinda made me feel useful.)
  On the up-side, I’m having dreams of running again, from all the leg-use!!!
  On the down-side I’m having more scary dreams of very bad men.

• Watching “Tracks Ahead,” and I was surprised to hear Harry (Potter’s) name wailed.

• Slightly lying in bed trying to get to sleep, (trying to ‘think’ more than sleep); had a “feeling” of dealing with someone … or “several ‘shells’” of them.

• Hermione. Was that you?? Naw, couldn’t’ve been.

• I saw the Wheat Thins Super Bowl XLVII Yeti Commercial for the first time; I LOL’d, looked back at the computer screen, clicked the scroll-bar down to the first entry there, and saw this: http://cheezburger.com/7348845824 !

• “afraid of the dark”... Do parents ever do things in the dark with their kids? Like, turn-out the lights and crawl-around inder [or under] the tables and chairs, or go out back and look at the stars & listen to the crickets & talk; or play hide-and-seek by feeling-around the living-room for a specified object? ...Somethign that will give them a feeling of darkness being somewhat normal.

As always, it occurred to me unexpectedly.
(Don’t worry, Mr. Sir … your secret’s safe with me!)
(It’s nice to know your address should I need to find you again!)

Edit: the day after: scary dream: a young warlock – powerful, dark; a head-hunter! {Note that he didn’t kill them; he just shrunk & swallowed heads along with a black “cat”}

I took the dog out for a long trip after she wouldn’t leave me alone; whining about something about a “walk.”
We got home, I looked up at the clock: all three hands were pointed at the 12.

Who is this ‘earnegie’ guy? (Another e where a C should be.) http://carnegie.org/fileadmin/Media/Image_Galleries/results_beyond_boundaries_winter_2013.pdf 2 months ago

(maybe I can blame the dog on this one.)
(then again, it was me who chose to wait a couple minutes before interrupting my work.)

edit: a minute before letting the dog out, it wouldv’e been very hard to see the clock. then I turned the light on, but I don’t remember looking at the clock; (I was too focused on getting the dog out), until I did at 3:15:15

So I gots me a pop, (32 oz.), & I’m going to the car, & I see this girl in a fairly-unique color-scheme, and I get in the car, and I notice the pop has splashed out the top in a very-much plus-sign (+)! (Now, A: this has never happended to me in such a sign before;
B: the ‘top’ spire fanned-out a little
C: I used a straw, as usual, that is much smaller than your normal straw {almost a stir-stick}, leaving less space for pop to get out;
D: the spires did not come straight out from the little slits for the straw to push through.)

This means either “a single covalent bond between two atoms” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/+) or an occult “Earth” sign, right?

Now why would an occult earth sign just happen on Easter (Ishtar) – to me – moi!?

I always wondered what that cool song was that they played for the Chicago Bulls entrance back in the day, when they were winning & I was a Bulls fan.
I found it recently, and I should’ve guessed [I shouldv’e bet] – it’s by The Alan Parsons Project – a song called “Sirius”!

Another bull, (pictured). (a hopper is like a trash can; right?)

Edit: (T4tC)
And that song w/o the team entrance is monotonous as heck

{{{“Now wait just a minute… hypnic bangs aren’t supposed to happen in dreams!... ” [[are there aliens here?]] ... }}} Then someone pokes their head in the door and says something & I almost wake-up screaming at them!

update: about a week -n’ ½ ago, I had a hypnic bang that sounded much like a rubber “kickball” ball being kicked very very hard – very loud.
This is gettin weird!

The other day night I decided to go to bed; the last light I turned out, the clock next to it said 3:33.
Last night as I was going to sleep, I heard another hypnic horn – sounded just like a Mack truck! Luckily it only lasted ½ or ⅓ of a second.
I woke up a few hours later, & looked at the clock… it said 2:15! (self-similar if seen upside down backwards)
(One wonders if this has anything to do with the Pope.) ((Someone said that now there would be two Popes.))

So I’m watching Hearts in Atlantis. Everything’s going fine; it’s an ok movie.
Then, just as my brother & cousin walks in, the boy yells, “I love him!”
I think, ” What?!! There is no precedent for that line!!”

(pretty-sure it was Hearts in Atlantis – it wouldn’t’ve been Digging To China)

I woke up this morning after going to bed at 10:30, at 3:33:33! (I’m assuming the :33 seconds, but after sitting up, turning my clock, & waiting the several seconds waiting to see if thee last (minute) clock number was a 3 or an 8). Note that I usually don’t wake up & see what time it is.
I wonder if this is one of them good omens like Damien had; right??! :-O
Also note that I don’t beleive that this is necessarily “paranormal”: it could be that I have a bugged clock that “accepts, [BY LAW] interference” by the gov’t., or it could be an actual Matrix inside another Matrix; right? Also I spent-up several early jobs by way of waking-up exactly at the time I was supposed to “clock-in”! (What do they call them – “good times”?)

Anyway, there it was; short & sweet. All in my head; ‘cept apparently it woke someone else up, cuz they came out & asked me about the “strange” sneeze or cough, (“cough,” I think).
I went out to the kitchen & the clock said 3:33.

There are lots of paranormal sites in the city. There are also groups that get together to visit them. It would be good for my writing of paranormal fiction. :) 5 months ago

Here’s how I remember it: Someone I trust mentions seeing an angel. I get so dizzy I just about fall off my chair!! Such dizziness has only hit me like that once-before: when asked by a psychologist if I was “good!” (That was it! Such a simple question!)

I mean – what precludes people from being an angel – people usually do have extremely small memories, right? And after n millenia of mixed-up historical accounts, banished nations, & taboo religious doctrines, if reincarnation is true, how can one find any reliable support among his peers of any reliable and far-reaching truths?
And if it goes back even further – if one has fallen from a greater height – what then?

In the past week or so, I’ve had two instances of hypnic bangs; once it sounded like a gun (I evensaw the gun), the other sounded like a train whistle, (‘cept pretty short – and like similar bangs, very loud & very very near)! 5 months ago

I was working up in the corner where the outside wall meets the eave, (where it’s impossible to get rainwater), and I’m thinking every so-often about the somewhat big, kinda dark clouds; and rain.
Eventually my mind wanders to “taking a survivalism course, and, (as usual), I get the forecast wrong,” and I think, about quoting “Both Sides, Now” (by Joni Mitchell). “I guess I really don’t know clouds, at all.” ... When suddently, ...now keep in mind exactly where I’m working – the last place to expect water, when some water comes flowing out…!!!! (Not a whole lot, mind-you; just not a little-bitty drip!) (Must’ve been yesterdays’ rain, & no way to keep the rain out of the thin soffit.) (But no water came out before that that I know of.)

Untied shoestrings … ok that’s a pretty boring stroy; we’ll skip it. (Well, you’ll have to skip it, but it’s got a small added bonus for me; {at least a ¾% bonus} so I’ll keep it in my mind. {Sorry.})

I recently found that an important person, (my first big, long-term crush), was buried near me – not a couple-hundred miles away like I’d thought. So I went to visit her grave. On my way back, I saw the section where they buried the babies, so I walked through there & wondered about them. About half-way through I looked up at a tree, and in the splits & splices of the bark, was very-much the figure of an angel! I must say I felt smiled-upon. (Yes, it may’ve been the way the sun cast its shadows.)

And I found my bro’s lost phone (after, like, a week) in the car – at 11:11 pm. Just to be in the car at that time is very rare! IDK when his phone is set to vibrate & beep. It could’ve been doing that for hours, I suppose.

(sorry in advance for misspellings – distracted)

Went for a walk today, and almost as I stepped out, I looked up at the few clouds, and saw one that I thought kinda looked like a bird. I looked a little more East and saw another that looked even more like a bird.
Then I looked back – further to the North & saw one that looked drop-dead like a peacock! (w/o legs or head-tufts)
Ten minutes later a couple a teenage boys (about 17 y-o) pass me on their bikes, and one of them starts flapping his arms like he’s flying.
[edit: here’s a pic of it. sorry if it’s not an exact replica, but “peacock” was my first thought of it after “cloud,” and really, how often do you see such-age boys act like that; they’re usually trying to appear cool & tough.]

(And one other; just a small possibility on a grand scale – {here just a reminder for myself}... “not feeling well”) 13 months ago

okay, so I’m out shopping. I see this guy I know, (well, I know him enough to say “Hi, how’s it goin’; right?) He looks kinda shady, acts a little shady. We say hi, he’s done & leaves.
He comes back a few minutes later while I’m getting my stuff to buy. He starts to talk to the cashier – a little too quietly. I buy a soda & get a little card there that I collect “stamps” for a free soda. I get home, and, for some reason, turn the card over. It says, “woods.” (It looks like it could be his handwriting.)
So I add-up a few variables in my head & think: ok there’s a woods near that place – there’s also a school near that place. On the off-chance there’s drugs (or drug-money) being left in the woods, I’ll go check it out.
So I grab the dog & head-out there. It’s getting dark, so it’s hard to see anything; so at least I’m not finding what I don’t want to find anyway.
I figure I’ll go back home; walking along (the other side) of the road – (away from the woods). I look over & what do I see – but a dollar bill.
I smile & pick it up. I look around & spy a second dollar bill. Ends-up I find six dollar bills!
“But wait there’s more…”
I continue home – about half-way there, I’m walking behind another store, I see a big-ol’ pile of ice cubes, (the kind they sell in 5-10 lb bags). I tell the dog to “get in” and she does for about twenty or-so seconds, and we’re off again. We’re on the other side of the store, and I look over & see an old girlfriend of mine. (And what is she carrying, but a bag of ice!) (Twenty seconds sooner and I might’ve missed her.)

I heard this mentioned recently, about affecting normal machines, (which aren’t built to read our brain waves).
I was in my truck once going to “take care” of an emotionally-pressing issue^{1 … half-way there, the truck starts making some wildly strange noises – noises I’ve never heard anywhere; noises that, if you heard them, would make you want to stop & call a freakin’ tow-truck – or a exorcist!
It never made that noise, or such, before or since.}

1 (with a person who’d had their share, {mult. witnesses}, with the paranorm.)

Edit: It seriously started to sound on the non-mechanistic side of sounds!!! Nothing earthly I know of makes that sound. (Looking back on it, I should have “might have” loaned it to someone I know who’s really good with engines, and said, I don’t need any work done – just drive it for a week and listen. But then… I knew what it was; I just didn’t know “what” it was.)
Just remember this; it was they that opened the door. They didn’t scare me away – it only served to give me a view in on them. (What is it they say about the hunter becoming the hunted?!) 14 months ago

The other night I was watching a really interesting, slightly scary movie, (Not at all like “Stir of Echoes,” which, (almost), started with a big blur of two women hugging… one inexplicably says “animal,” (I’m like, “and why is ‘two women hugging’ animalistic?”) then the camera focuses, (on them). Then one sister says “She’s a witch…” (about the one wearing the Hindu elephant-God {Ganesh} shirt).)

Anyway, I came home to play this clock game after the “good” movie, and I’m quickly facing four small clocks – all of them just about standing straight-up in an 1111 line. Right after that, I’m facing four large clocks in a similar array!
These are supposed to be, (and usually are), randomly placed, sized, & timed! It’s almost like “as above, so below,” or something; almost.

Edit: aww frick – it was 1:11 here when I posted that.

I had another dream: Some Amish people were outside a house from my past. (The Amish chicks running around were kinda cute though. [hmm, perhaps ‘cute’ is the wrong word])
Then the whole (big) family started coming up to me, & they were looking kinda ugly; and the grandmother poured some corn flakes from the box into my lap & said now I was blessed. (?! lol) 16 months ago

I’d just started playing this game, Clock Avoider, after an hour of no one moving around, (not even a mouse). (I even muted the game.) A few seconds after starting the game, I heard my door creak open; (seconds later the dog appeared). (At the beginning of the game a door creaks, if not muted.)
Note: if you play the game, (which I don’t suggest doing-so, (unless you can start the game without clicking on that…or looking at that…)), you’ll have to watch out for the tiny clocks every once-in-awhile. Here’s a pic. If they look like they’re just three black pixels, that’s what they look like on my screen! Luckily they’re not prevalent.

It’s a fun game, & nice music.
