fist full of culture, high and low

Dream symbolism is highly individual - so chuck out your dream guides! I msut say it makes me wonder what my subconcious is trying to tell me, whirling around like a hamster in a wheel and coming up with the strangest stuff...

Sneak peek of upcoming "Buffy Season 8" comic - promising.

Holbein in England at the Tate, UK - many of the images don't show due to copyright restrictions, but even these few include some I don't remember seeing before.

12 Byzantine Rulers podcast - I've listened to most of this, and it really is excellently presented in both content and style.

Debutante slouch may be good for you (via jlsjlsjls). Or more correctly, humans aren't built to sit for hours on end. More evidence that this bipedal thing is a raw deal :P

More Blond Bond nude shots - emphatically NOT safe for work. Will look for Blond Bond Bound in my Abundant Spare Time(TM) (ha!). Because I like to offer equal leching opportunity: Bond Girls Naked also NOT SAFE FOR WORK.

Oh...Buffy! Ok, now I have to be geeky and get the comic. On a slightly related note, I wish JW would do more with his character Fray.

Haven't had a chance to read Fray yet but really should - at this stage I'd read Whedon's version of the phone book :P

Oh yeah, if for no other reason than the premise is really interesting and the art is gorgeous!

Fray reminds me of a mix between Buff and Faith. Yum!

Dreams are often pretty compliant about molding themselves to fit whatever analysis system you're using. I remember reading, way back in college, that patients in Freudian analysis tended to have dreams full of Freudian symbols, while patients in Jungian analysis tended to have dreams full of Jungian archetypes.

At the beginning of our therapy, I told one of my long-term clients that I didn't really do dream analysis. She liked to tell me her dreams anyway. They were screamingly obvious - the meaning would practically be jumping up and down shouting "why don't you GET me?" to her - but they always baffled her.

So one day I said, "You know, you have the most straightforward and obvious dreams I've ever heard." And she said, "Well, you told me you didn't do dream analysis, so I guess my subconscious decided it would have to make things easy for you."

Maybe your client expected her dreams to be subtle - most people seem to think they are, when they mean anything.

And what if you don't know what kid of analysis your doctor/therapist is using?
