"a dream is a wish your heart makes, when your fast asleep"



So i have this wierd habit, when i work alot or have alot to do. i dream about work, i go over and over things i need to do. I guess alot of people do this, but sometimes it really helps, i seem to have the ability to memorise things in my sleep.

For instance I'm one of those people who if i make a mistake at work, will own up to it and then beat myself up over for it for a while so i know i won't do it again, this has now transfered im to my sleep. In my dreams i can go over and over what i did wrong and how to do things so in the morning I know how to do it, wierd but useful

The pinicle of this recently was when i was Stage Managing for a touring company, first night we opened in Derby i hadn't had time to go over the changes in the technical script properly and as a result I gave a few incorect cues during the show. Anoyed with myself i went back to the place we were staying on tour, went to bed and in my sleep i somehow managed to memorise my technical script, in my head i went over and over, page by page, when i woke up I knew it off by heart, so strange!

I'm only talking about that now as last night i feel asleep reading "the lives of the English rakes" cause I'm a big nerd and I woke up with this poem going over and over in my head

God bless our good and gracious king,
Whose promise none relies on;
Who never said a foolish thing,
Nor ever did a wise one.

Nerd Points to whoever know's who wrote it and which King it was about!

In other news I Just bought wreck this journal, I haven't started it yet but I'm going to wait till I've stuck my other pics on here cause I want to document it on here :) it's gonna be awesome!

P.S sorry for there being no pics in this one, i tried but it just wont have it, someone show me how to work this thing!

Calling all true Disney geeks...

My friend Amy is currently planning a trip to Disney World with her other half so i thought i would share 3 links to some radio shows which are awesome to anyone as obsessed with Disney and Disney World as i know me and Amy are!

First and foremost WDW Radio:

This is only of interest if your a true Disney World geek, its basically a podcast, although i listen through the website, simply click "Listen to the show". Its all based around Disney world, planning and ridiculously minuscule and nerdy details you would only know about if you've been. Very entertaining and informative

Secondly WDWLIVE Disney radio

This has 2 channels, one plays one random Disney songs and the other plays songs from the park

and lastly my favorite, dtuneslive

This has tons of different stations on it, all dedicated to different things, for instance park rides, ambient music, film music, shows etc. Is a true Disney nerds dream

hope you enjoy, sorry this is fast n messy my mind is elsewhere at the moment

Samuel Pepy's, inventer of the smiley face...oh and i think he also wrote a diary...

So recently i have just finished reading Samuel Pepy's diary, and as if that wasn't nerdy enough, i was nerdy enough to notice this:


That's right, it's official Samuel pepy's, inventor of the smiley face! 23rd of February, 1669, so it appears he did more then just record important events in restoration history, it appears he was the inventor of computer nerds!

In other news, i know i was going to blog about York, the problem is I have a new phone and it came without a connector, so all my photos are stuck on it, i ordered one on-line and have been trying to get it to work in the short time i have after work before i pass out and its been playing up, pictures are coming though in bits and peace's, hopefully soon i will manage to get them all up and i can show you my stuff and have more cam pictures in general on my blogs.

Also as of Monday my ridiculous work schedule calms down... dramaticly.....its like going from 100 miles an hour to slamming the breaks on, oh how i love the stability of the performing arts industry! Anyway what this does do is give me more time to blog!

hope you have a great weekend
