Roman Profile

I had another Roman dream last night...in this one, a man behind a stone Caesar mask said to me, "Men are born immaculate, they are not born clean." Then he set my head on fire, and showed me my face in a mirror - I have to say it was flattering! And it didn't hurt. The smell of cinnamon wafted through a hole in the ceiling, and a mink fell through the opening and wrapped itself around my ankle. Go figure that one out. But Roman beauty is undeniable, and you can never go wrong imitating it, as these artists and costume goofballs will agree.

Rome is Sinking!

Last night I had a dream about Lucius Vorenus, the Centaurion. Don't ask me why. There was a great flood and two large sharks washed up on shore and then he held my hand and said, "Get on this boat," which was a sinking Viking ship. Then he kissed me and said he preferred brown eyes to blue. Oh well. Hence today's sea theme, and the dreamy objects below.
