I had the worst nightmare ever last night. It started well, I was dinner party with lots of friends and then a trip out.
On the way back I was with Hyper Helen and Lara and the tower we needed to climb down crumbled and we watched water rising all around us. We had to take a perilous journey through the water from a high point in a building and water was crashing from above us. The three of us we raced downstairs, conscious that our other friends would be following straight after us (they were about five minutes behind us). I kept trying to wedge doors open and think of them but the water was fast and I was confronted with one door opening inwards and the door straight after that opened outward and I knew that by the time they got there the doors would be forced by the mass of water and they would be trapped.
Helen hurt herself so Lara and I dragged her along and got to these glass doors that just COULDN'T be opened and Lara looked at me like she wanted to give up but FINALLY, we prised them up and got out to safety.
The worst part was us standing on the sidewalk and looking up at the building. We could hear the water crashing through it and I looked at the window of the room with the two opposite opening doors and I just heard one of my friends scream "Help me!" and I woke up knowing they hadn't survived.
Was a horrible nightmare. Woke up with the word "Fucking hell!" on my lips and my heart beating like fury.

Absolutely RELISHING the gossip on LiveJournal....

She walked down dusky, slow streets the fat sun a fading memory. As she drew closer the air burst around him with the scent of lime and bergamot and she turned with a smile. He strode on unnoticing, unaffected. She took the scent home with her and breathed it deep into her slumbers.

I considered briefly going to see Spearmint tonight but decided against it.

About Me
- Mira Manga
- This is a blog all about my experiences in Retail. As a retail support manager for a UK retail company I despair of the lack of customer service that is endemic everywhere I seem to shop, and I have plenty of opinions on this subject too!
