My eyes change color all the time.

They are mostly grey, blue, green or hazel, in any shade, dark or light, vivid or mute.

Though they have been gold at least once that I have noticed.

And it seems like I can change the color at least a little if I stare in the mirror long enough.

I sold an old French violin to a buyer in Canada, and the buyer disputed the label.

Rather than have the violin returned to me, PayPal made the buyer DESTROY the violin in order to get his money back. They somehow deemed the violin as “counterfeit” even though there is no such thing in the violin world.

My eyes are brown with a gold circle.  Kind of weird, but no one's ever commented.


I've figured out why I keep having nightmares.  I've got "getting to class PTSD."  I'm not even kidding about the basic concept, though PTSD is probably too strong label.  I've been having nightmares nearly every night for probably months about trying to get to class on time, which until very recently would wake me up multiple times in the middle of the night with a big jerk.

Well, it's mild, though, so maybe it'll be over with as early as next semester.

SO I read this, and my brain is all like "You know what you have to do Josh. Call Berkeley's Dean and have them play the sounds of bombs dropping and machine guns firing over the intercom, so when Vector is running to class it sounds like she's running through a WW2-era battlefield."

I've been sleeping in really late a lot recently for no reason, but I think I figured out the problem.  I'm depressed.  I don't even want to get out of bed.  My mom has been pressuring me to find scholarships because she wants to save a little money for the upcoming taxes she has to pay in March.  Looking for scholarships and grants always makes me feel stressed.  I'm not sure why.  And now my brother is on a "being as weird as possible" kick because he's gone without his meds for two months and refuses to take them.  Today, mom made me hang up his clothes because he couldn't handle a simple task like that, and when he came out of the bathroom, he laughed and pranced down the hallway in his whitey tighties to where I'd hung his clothes up.  This would be cute if he was like, 10 years old.  He's thirty.  I went back to bed after he did that, and stayed in bed until he left the house.

Haha, yeah, well, it's obviously not anything like that severe, but I've been trying to figure out why I keep having dreams about the same stupid thing for so long.  I normally only have nightmares for a couple of days after the semester ends, not weeks.

Combined with the worsened stuttering, you may have developed yourself a stress disorder. :/

I don't know but getting to class late can be really embarrassing. I was late to school once by only 15 minutes and ended up skipping first class for fear of having all those people looking at me. Admittedly I was quite young at the time but still. If you've any similarly bad experiences that might go some way to explaining it Vector.

Meh it has happened several times to me now, as at the beginning of the year sometimes the bus would be too full for me to enter it (ironically, that same buss is only half-filled nowadays). Luckily that's solved now, but it happened too often for me to be able to skip all those hours.

I would have been around eleven at the time and in a new school. By the end of that school I was late plenty more times without a problem. We'd moved house so I had to commute by train and they were often late.
