A Postcard from You

I didn't sleep well last night. I saw your face in a crowd and you were trying to talk to me. I couldn't hear what you were saying. Then there was script that came onto the front of this picture and the scene became a postcard. I was reading what you were saying. You were calling out to me and I couldn't hear you. And I couldn't reach you, you were fading. I became sad and tormented.

This dream woke me up with a sense of dread. I wish I could rid myself of images from sleep. This one kept me awake for some time. Mind talk in the middle of the night blows. ;-(

Auditorium & Disaster

It started in an auditorium where I was watching a performance of friends in a play. I sat next to a man who looked like cuba gooding jr. He was a bit off. Not retarded, but not mentally sound. We talked briefly, then as I was walking home, he rode past me on his bike. He mumbled something to me, and I said to him, goodnight, nice talking to you. He got scared and shut his door. I said, oh no you didn't! I knocked on his door, and said, you didn't say goodnight. Then he apologized and invited me in. It was an interesting menagerie in his home. At the base of his home was a huge aquarium with all kinds of fish. There was a heater. He got all panicked because the number was not at 4. And he said, it has to be 4. (and he kept repeating himself in a manic state). Then the fish all came to the side of the glass where we were standing, saying, four, it must be four. then they kept saying, four, four, four, four, until the number went up to four, then they all got silent, and moved back to the tank. He continued to show me around his home, the next room was like a tower, and leading up to the top were all kinds of steps, kind of escher like. White. Clean. Plastic. And there were small bottles of shampoo, lotion, plants, candles, etc. on the stairs. It was very sunny out at this point, and I remember climbing them and feeling good.

After that I left his home and started walking towards my car. I saw all kinds of people standing in the street. There had been some kind of fire in the building next to my car (it was a restaurant). the cars on the side of the building where i was parked were covered in Ash! They could not be moved. I heard them all talking and realized that we weren't able to move our cars. But as I turned the corner, mine wasn't there! I saw the owner on the intercom talking about the cars. He started a reading off a list saying, if you own this car, please come and talk to me. Mine was on the list. As i went to talk to him, he disappeared, and the restaurant closed.

Then I woke up. I hope that there isn't an earthquake at four today, and my car goes missing. yikes.

I am not dreaming this week.

or at least I don't remember them. more to come.

(or should I say, not while i sleep. having daydreams though)

range rover

I was traveling with a friend in his range rover. he drove it into the water. I remember feeling so anxious. we were under murkey water and I was saying to him, get us out of here. and so he did.

all i can remember.

oh the horror.

Do you remember that line from apocolypse now? yea. Last night was pretty much a horror for sleeping. not going back there in detail. There was shrieking and skeletons. Faces fading into blackness. The entire process of melting into fear and hatred. and Fear. did i mention that?

Turns on "No Bad News" by Patty G to pull up the boot straps and accomplish the work she needs to do today! I need to get nasty and beat back this demon shit. What is that for? I am not afraid of you scary monsters... go back from whence you came... *opens the lid and shines the light inside". Take that!

Mermaid

There was a storm in the house I was staying at, Part of the roof was torn off in the wind. I left and went to stay in a temporary place, an apartment that was smaller than my own. My upstairs neighbor was a red head. He worked in a blood bank. I went with him to give blood, and they tested me, but I couldn't give. Then I remember having to tie my work boots before I left but none of the laces matched up. spent a good amount of time on that one.

Then for some reason I was back in the 1940's working out of our family restaurant/gift shop at Coney Island. I had seen a bus full of black people come by earlier, down the pier. We had gotten a huge box of frozen/fresh food from someone that gave it to us. I asked our maid why they gave us the food when we already had so much. Shouldn't i run some of it to that family on the bus? she agreed.I packed up and wandered down the street, which basically was a river/bayou. It had become New Orleans. I saw a mermaid in the water. She was looking at me. Looking for me. she followed me down the street (which actually was water and i was walking on it). Then I ran into King Neptune, hanging out on the side of this river. I said hello, but he was silent and slipped back into the clear green water. As I went further into town, i came across a pack of wild monkeys attacking the homeless people in the poorer areas of town. Then I came across a train track, which basically led me back to where I had started.

When I got back there it was modern times. A group of my friends were dressed up to see a show. And we got in the car. I had some boxes that I had to put in storage, but we didn't have time to find a place to do that. The gentleman driving the car seemed to be infatuated with me and was trying to make out with me while he was driving the car. The last images I have are me and this gentleman in the car, going under a hotel (which was over the road) and me thinking we should stop here, if we are going to be making out.

then I woke up. that wasn't all that happened, but a good collection of it. Wonder what the mermaid represents? She was very adamant about watching me.

Small Animals

Had a dream that I was living in my house, and there were small creatures living with me. A family of mallard ducks had moved in and there were chicks all over the place. And my cat calvin, was chasing off some rats... I was worried about him eating the chicks. I was trying to get ready for work, and had my camera on the tripod, was worried someone may try to take it, so hid it under a blanket.

Earlier in the dream I was at a seminar (some kind of retail store was giving) Only it was very informal. We were being tested for which outfits and accessories would go together. After we got through with that, we climbed the outside of the building to the roof to watch fireworks.

and that Is only a partial rememberance.
