Welcome
Things are going well for me, it seems. I have been asked to do two interviews, gained a special mention in another contest and found today that I now have 106 watchers. Phew! That's a lot of watchers for somebody with only three poems. I also have 6,300 pageviews, which is ridiculous as I had 5,000 just last month. I think I'd better submit some more deviations!
Those of you who keep up with my awfully mundane life may have heard that I have been unwell. This is why I had to stop at 30 during my 50 Critique Challenge for `Kneeling-Glory's critique contest. I have had some x-rays done and it looks as though I'll need major surgery and a replacement (or two) on my hips. I'll be a bionic woman! I thank all of you wonderful deviants who have been so supportive this month.
In other news, I have a blog! I will be featuring it in a box on my page soon, but until then you can read it yourself here or alternatively, like my Facebook page or follow me on Twitter. All subscriptions, comments, ratings and so forth are greatly appreciated. It isn't particularly interesting now, but I have some (hopefully) very exciting posts in the works!

On a more serious note I hope the operation goes lightly and without any problems. After all I just read your 3 poems and I formed a rather interesting idea in my mind, which however I will share with you after some time as I want to paint it completely in my mind, during dreaming while sleeping, which is not very often.
On a not so selfless note good luck with the operation and don't, don't replace tea with coffee. Way trying to stay awake with coffee when you can sleep yourself with tea and dive your mind into all the wild beauty of the dreams?
Interestingly, although I have always had curious dreams, since I started drinking coffee they have been so much more well-formed and wonderfully vivid. Although some have been terrifying, they are still stories and I am enjoying going to sleep at night. Although, strange dreams could just be a side effect of the Amitriptyline I was given for my headaches...
I am intrigued by your idea. No, really; I am an awfully curious sort. Please may you tell me now?
Coffee just disturbs my sleep and my dreams, making them way too abstract and intermittent, thus not allowing me to understand them completely. That is why I drink only one cup of coffee very early in the morning and do not touch any more until the end of the day.
Also, I'm not going to reveal you my idea, but I will tell you that it combines graphic design and poetry in a way.
That sounds absolutely amazing! I wish I could know more now.
If it is of interest to you, a deviant has combined his graphic design with my poetry once before, creating a very interesting result: [link]
How did abandoning coffee for a day influenced your dreams? I am quite interested if the change was the same as the one I underwent after I stopped drinking coffee. Are the dreams more clear and connected, because I without coffee I seem to be able to link certain parts of my dreams to real life events and objects much easier.
That graphic is indeed interesting, but it is not in my taste. My idea is a bit bigger speaking in size and quantity of the final result.
Unfortunately the dreams remained the same, so I didn't take my Amitriptyline for two days. I had awful headaches and my dreams were vague and disconnected. It is my wonder drug, of course.
I am yet more interesting to hear about your plan, as your gallery is so beautiful. You have a real talent with graphic design and I would be honoured to have inspired you even slightly.
Also, get well soon and beat that flu off with... TEA! It always works. Just don't forget to add honey and lemon juice.
I honestly cannot wait to find out what you are planning. I am quite excited just thinking about it.
But I will keep you updated. Like you say, I am sure I will be fine.
