Saturday, January 7, 2006The Mountain that Came Back to MeThe one drawback of buying a bunch of beautiful pendants and making necklaces with them is that once you sell them, you'll never see them again, except for the digital pictures you've taken of them. Of course the same thing goes for paintings, but that's another story. Last month I sold a jewelry set, and the Jasper pendant had the most unique image of a mountain. It looked like a picture taken with an old camera from the 19th century, the mountain and its shadows were brown, the sky yellow. In front of the mountain was a line of trees and a whitewater river. Floating above the mountain was a small cloud. This past weekend I could almost feel the way it felt in my hand, and as I closed my eyes I could see the image without looking at the photo. I missed that pendant, and I'd never see another one like it. Nature made that image, not a human, and it will never make another one like it, ever again. The strangest thing happened, however. The man who bought it contacted me last Monday and said it was not what his wife wanted. I was a bit taken aback, as this was the first time this had ever happened. Who could not love that jewelry set? Yet, at the same time it was most amazing. Of all the pendants I've given up, this was the only one I truly missed. Sure, I miss all of them because all of them I use are one-of-a kind due to the nature of the kinds of stones I work with. But this was more like a deep connection. I felt bad that someone else who saw the pendant didn't appreciate the nature-made image of the mountain. I received the jewelry set in the mail today, and I refunded their money. My mountain came back to me, and I'm going to keep it. It was meant to be mine all along.

Since I'm waaay too sleep deprived to do anything worthwhile, I'll take this time that would best spent on productive work to do this. Night before the night before last: (Tues-Wed): I was looking at one of those Sunday newspaper special feature sections and they were doing an article on the new courthouse. They had a featured article about a woman and showed her picture (50s, short curly hair, Caucasian, wearing red) who was a judge. I asked Stan if he knew her and he said she was a bitch. Night before last: (Wed-Thur): I was walking with some people in a wooded area that was similar to the Milwaukee Zoo, but it was also sort of like the Farmer's Market because people and their handmade products were on display, not animals. There was a modern concrete building on a hill, and on it was a sign that said "Kimchee". There were some Korean people vending kimchee on a table in front of it. (So I took a walk yesterday over to Jenny Street to buy myself some kimchee IRL...I figured the dream was telling me something. Yum...kimchee.) One of the people selling it was the Korean female character on Lost. Also, I was watching TV and they had a special on The Partridge Family (I never even watched that silly show when I was a kid...only saw a few episodes in reruns in the 90s...very silly show). The people were all grown up but still living with their mother, but they still looked like kids, except for the oldest boy (forgot his name...obviously I wasn't smitten like the other 9-year-olds my age in 1970)...he had dreadlocks. Heh. Last night (Thurs-Fri): I was at someone's house (female) that had a lot of rooms with modern architecture. She had a brother, and her brother was in his back bedroom with a girlfriend. I walk back there because there's a large picture window/sliding glass door that I want to see out of. I realize that they had been in bed together, so I try to make myself discrete. I feel a bit embarrassed. Later, I am driving around Schenk's Corners and I see MSNBSC's Tucker Carlson in a small, old Japanese beater car. He's having trouble starting it and it seems to be stalled. I find this odd because wouldn't he be driving an SUV or something? Doesn't the network pay him enough? Later, I see him again, still struggling with the broken down car somewhere in the vicinity of Wonder's Pub. I think it was snowing in both dream segments.
