my horoscope says I should decipher the messages in my dreams of late.  I have been having lots.

I woke up in a sweat and it was someting about Mary Walsh, but not as she appears here.  For those of you who are Canadian you will recognize her from Rick Mercer Report and other shows like This Hour Has 22 Minutes and my favorite: Codco.  The particular rabbit hole that she lead me down was when I saw her on one of those search your ancestry shows.  I realized I had misquoted the other day during a rare conversation with another actual live human being by saying that her family were in a "poor house" in Ireland. But It was Rosie O'Donnel's family. I won't put a pic of her because you all know what she looks like.

The thing is, her decendant came during a relatively strifeless period in Ireland "for the adventure" which boggled her mind in light of where he went to, THE ROCK.  I apologize to any of her ancestors who might have rolled over in their graves. 

The dream was about trying to find the file in my dream computer about Mary Walsh. I had it on a tab at the bottom of the dream screen... I would also like to say that I quoted her as having said the that the gene pool in her home town was the size of a tea cup in the conversation.  Well, regardless of the additional genes from other races I look like her sister.  Seriously.  I think one drop of Irish to ten zillion gallons of any other race and you end up looking like one of the family.

But as far as decifering the dream I think it was telling me I have to go and fix the story I wrote about the pirate Mary Read. Some characters, like Zoe Mellon have settled in my body like benign tumours but Mary Walsh/Read is one I need to get out of my system. 

I would also like to say that I am a huge fan of Mary Walsh. She is my Super Hero.

Here's a tune that captures Mary's life!
