Pendant @ MindSay 
I walked into the store and saw some neat clothes but didn't like the prices so I continued to browse. I stopped and took out a pencil and started drawing a line and at the end of the line the pencil had a mind of it's curving off to the side hitting a pendant.
A lady at the counter looked at me and claimed that pendant was choosing me. I picked it up and it was round pewter looking. On either side of the pendant it had intriguing designs very similar to these.
Each time I flipped the pendant in the air the design would change. I found it so amazing. It also began changing metals too. Bronze, copper and even silver it morphed at each flip. One of the symbols it showed me was actually a scene of two men sitting or even working on a log in front of a castle. They were one the bank of a river and it was clear that the castle was in the process of being repaired or just after a war and it was in disrepair.
The woman who originally showed the pendant told me that it was no longer for sale. She wanted it for herself and I told her that she couldn't do that considering she had to purchase it on her time. She conceded and handed it over while telling me it was $3.50. I went to pay but pulled out a dollar in the shape of a bat. I was saddened to see that this was all the money I had but lucky for me a friend of mine walked by and I asked to borrow the money from them.
So the pendant was purchased and I was excited to keep trying it out. I wanted to figure out what it was telling me and explained the process to a family member who was with me. An Indian fellow(not Native American) overheard me and wanted me to try it out on them. I didn't really want to but I gave in.
Walking over to a display of incense & salts I asked which of these would be best for him. I flipped it then hung it down so it could point like a pendulum. The sign of the Saggitarian(my sign) made an arrow to some sea salts mixed in with Jasper.
That's about it for my dream but I wanted to write it down before it was forgotten. I'm curious as to what it means because it was so detailed and gave a lot of information. Anyone want to take a stab at an interpretations?
As promised here are the pictures.
Another reflection of the Thai pagoda.
And one more where the water was being moved by the wind.
It's me!
Okay, well I should make something to eat or decide what to do for dinner. I'm hungry!
Right now the pendant I have chosen to wear is a small sterling silver skull with hindged jaw. I have been going over the meaing of the skull and found this :
The transitoriness of life; The Vanity of worly things; death; memento mori; the moon; the shades; the dying sun; gods of the dead; Lime “The skull is, on the other hand, a symbol of the vital lice-force contained in the head. The skull with the crossbones indicates death, the thigh also symbolizing a vital force, that of the. loins; the flag carrying the skull and cross bones is an emblem of pirates. Alchemic: With the raven and the grave, the skull is a symbol of the blackening and mortification of the first stage of the Lesser Work, `earth to earth’, and signifies dying to the world; but it is also that which survives and so is used as a reminder of-life and transmutation. Buddhist: (”Tantric) The skull filled with blood symbolizes the renunciation of life. It is an emblem of Yama, god of the dead, and of Tara in her dark aspect. Christian: The sanity of’ worldly things; contemplation of’ death, hence an emblem of hermits. The skull with the cross is eternal life after Christ’s death oil Golgotha, the `place of the skull’, where Adam’s skull was said to be buried. Emblem of SS Francis of Assisi, Jerome, Mary Magdalene, Paul. Graeco-Roman: Attribute of Cronos/Saturn as Time. Hindu: The skull filled with blood dcpicts renunciation of life; it is an attribute of Kali/Durga. The skull also appears with Yams, as god of the dead, and with Suva and Kale as destroyers. Mayan: With the skeleton, the skull is a symbol of the god of death and the underworld.

I guess there are many reason's that I identify with the skull as my personal symbol. Another reason being that people that I watch on TV use it in own way as well. Such as wwe superstars (WWF went I was growing up), and now people such as Dale Earnhardt Jr, bikers, Criss Angel , pirate of the Caribbean , just to mention a few.
I also own craved several crystal skulls that adorn the night stand and finding new and interesting skulls a fun activity. Which will be more easy now that a holiday that uses them a lot is coming up. That being Halloween next month.
Finally I found a couple more links that I would like to include in here, so you can look up the skull symbolism for yourself. Here are those links: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skull_(symbolism) and http://www.answers.com/topic/skull-and-crossbones .
~ Mortality , I'm alive
After going to bed around 130 am last night. It was up at 645 , and returning to work at 8 am.
Where is just a typical day there. Nothing out of the ordinary tasks and chores happening while there today. Although the 90 degree heat makes work so much worse. I'm tired of summer temps.
I returned home at 430 , where dinner was two cheeseburgers. Then it was to my room , where I got changed, and turned on the TV. I found on the family channel , the harry potter movies. First the prisoner, and now the goblet of fire.
Also tonight is the NASCAR sprint cup series race. So I'll have the live leader board going on my PC, so I can somewhat watch the movies. There's also Olympic coverage on TV too. So to say the least, it's a busy TV night. Tune into what you feel like watching, or having as background noise. Enjoy!
What's on my mind? Once again, I'm in pendant dilemma world. I took the white jade one off , and tried a gold band ring. Like he wear's in the movie, lord of the rings, but I don't like it. So that was quickly changed. Now I am wearing my stainless steel / 14 K gold wheel / barrel pendant. It's rather unique. Check it out in person if you care to.
Anything else worth mentioning? Nope not really at this time. I have the unfortunately pleasure of having to be back at work in the morning. So, its up to me how late I stay up, but I don't really care as I can sleep in Monday, as I work that afternoon. Then I'm off Tuesday. Yay! Have I mentioned how much I hate 6 day work weeks?!
So, do you care to put your two cents in?
~ Just wondering 
So after going to bed at 1235 am last night. I tossed and turned and finally fell asleep around 4 , to bad the alarm went of at 645. I had to be back at work at 8 am. Ugh...
So, I am at work. First thing to do, find the person working the payroll department. Why? Cause I didn't get a pay check. Yup, that's right, they conveniently forgot to pay me for my vacation! Ugh... Wonder if I could conveniently forget to show up for work and no one would notice? I think someone should be written up, I think the delayed pay should come with interest for illegally withholding my pay! But, no. I doubt anything will happen to them after all. They can do anything they want and get away with it. Even fuck up like this, and have nothing happen to them. What a joke my store is.
Left there at 1230, thank god for a short shift. Upon getting home , I decided to take a bucket of soap water, and wash the mud off my tires and persisted. So, I did. My car looks reasonably clean for the time being. Then it was picking up the garbage can, and recycle bin from the curb, as it was also garbage day here.
Then it was inside, where it was cool, since my father was still in bed, and hadn't gotten up to open then windows yet. That's since changed, and its now 84 in this room. Ugh...
So, what's going on right now. Been watching NASCAR coverage on the speed channel , which will soon switch to ESPN for tonight's NASCAR nationwide race. GO 88! The other things on TV will be the Olympics, and wwe smackdown.
What's on my mind? Still wearing my white jade pendant, hehe, and Umm... I dunno not much. It's to freaking hot for me. I just want to roll over and go to sleep, but waking up in a pool of sweat is keeping me from sleeping at all. I'm tired of this hot weather. Anything over 70 is too warm for me. Hope fall type weather gets here soon.
Anything else worth mentioning? No, not really. Does anyone have a furby they wanna give me? lol How about a pendant ? I take both, or either. Please ? *wink wink*
~ Overheating 
Got up at 9 am this morning with the plan of going to the fair, yet again. So I got cleaned up, got changed , and ate breakfast.
Then it was off to the fair. We got to the fair around 1030 am. As usual I looked at all the pendants, and even found a few more at thewirejewelrystore.com tent. I got four for only 5 bucks. Other then that there were no other pendants bought today. Dinner at the fair today was 2 cheeseburgers.
We came home around 4 PM. Upon arriving at home, I retired to my room, where I am right now. So, what's going on at this moment in time? Right now I am watching the Buffalo Bills football game. They are playing a pre-season game in Toronto.
So, plans for the rest of the night? Nothing. No plans at all. Just watching TV, and sitting around the house. Ugh, let the boredom begin.
I really didn't feel like blogging tonight, but I figure, why not.
So, what else is on my mind? Now that I have so many more pendants, what one do I really wanna wear? I dunno. I sorta like my black hematite pendant. It reminds me of a black pearl. Thus, the pirate ship and movie. But, with so many to choose from in my own personal collection, I dunno what I really want to wear. Ugh... someone pick one out of my box, hand it to me, and say "where this" please? I hate choosing.
Ok, so, I dunno what else to write. So I'll leave this entry with this comment...
