Dream Blog Entry #18

     I went sky diving with Fergie last night.  As I plummeted, we fell past a sky hotel, and Tech N9ne was on the balcony.  we fell through clouds, which made it difficult to breathe, and hard to judge how far from the ground we were.  As we came out of the last layer of clouds, we noticed that the ground was coming up quicker than we thought, and deployed our parachutes.  Fergie's chute didn't open, and she plummeted through the forest, but managed to survive.  I landed on the balcony of my hotel room, and was greeted by the rest of the Black Eyed Peas, and we waited for Fergie to get back.  When she returned, her face was broken, and the Peas kicked her out of the band because she refused to get re-constructive surgery.  Shortly after, I shook hands with the band members and drove away in a solid black Hummer.


     I also dreamt that my mom came to visit me at my apartment.  First thing we did when she arrived was totally clean the whole place.  Once we finished, we made beef and mushroom soup (sounds nasty).  We started by roasting a large amount of beef, and in a separate lasagna dish, we boiled noodles in a mushroom broth.  As it cooked, we got ready for bed, and played with two random cats that showed up.  The beef was done roasting, so we combined it with the noodles in the lasagna dish, and i placed the dish of soup under my pillow, so i could wake up and eat it in the middle of the night.


     These were both probably the weirdest dreams I've had recently, and I have no clue where any of the subject matter from either dream came from.  But apparently, Nyquil + Pokemon = weird dreams that are easily remembered.

     So last night I had a rather awesome dream.  I had an epic battle with a fish, and lost my friend in the process.  I was a ninja, my friend was a salt water loving goldfish, and we both weilded long, dull spears against our whitefish enemy.


     The fight started in a grocery store, and we broke brooms and mops to fashion our spears.  We headed to the fish aisle, where numerous aquariums lined the shelves, and the whitefish was there taunting us.  I started the fight by shattering a large fresh water tank, and filling the aisle with water for us all to swim in.  I then swam to the other end of the aisle and broke open a salt water tank, creating small bubbles of salt water that my goldfish friend could swim through to stay alive.  When he swam through these salt water spots he also gained a sort of speed boost, and would rush the whitefish enemy and attack with amazing speed.


     After a few of these speed attacks, my goldfish friend tired out the whitefish enough for me to land the finishing blow.  I jabbed my spear at the whitefish, the dull end ruptured its scaly side, and killed it instantly.  Once the fish was dead, the water in the aisle drained and left my goldfish friend flopping on the floor, gasping for water.  Along with not being able to 'breathe' he had a gaping hole in his side from the fight.  Hastily, I searched for a salt water tank to put him in, but I failed, and he died in my hands.  I mourned for a while, then filled a cart with food, checked out.


     At the register, I was greeted by a nice lady, and she quickly scanned all of my items and asked "cash or credit?"  I replied with, "My fish just died" and she paid for my things for me.  I then woke up to my alarm.

It's 2:20am and I'm going to sleep...

     Today was pretty lame...  I woke up around 2pm, no dreams that I remember well enough to post.  First thing I did when I woke up was get on my laptop (like usual) and check the basics for anything new.  Facebook was dry as ever, nothing new on youtube yet, still too early, and the blog was just as I'd left it for the past week, with a few more views, but nothing note worthy.  My roommate and I went to Kroger, stocked up on taco stuffs and carbonated beverages, then we came back and I wasted a few hours playing Black Ops.  Long story short, nothing special happened today.


     Granted, it is Friday, so Fringe, my favorite t.v. show, was on.  I won't ruin anything in case you missed it, but I wasn't exactly happy with the way things went, but the other 90% of it was just as awesome as normal.  But anyways, it's now 10pm, and I'm not tired.  I got back on facebook, and talked with my friend Jordan for a good while, watched my subscriptions on youtube, then played some League of Legends with my brother.  After losing miserably twice in a row, I quit, and chatted with my brother about life and the future.  I vented a bit about my boredom and general displeasure with my lack of employment and decided I needed a better way to fill my days while I wait for a job opportunity.  So I started drawing again.  The reason I'm writing this instead of talking about a dream I had, is because when I asked my brother to give me an idea of what to draw, he told me something like this:


     "No matter what suggestion I give you, you're just going to shut it down.  It doesn't matter what I tell you, you aren't going to like it.  Your imagination isn't something I can turn on for you, that's something only you can do."


     This lit me up.  I got that feeling you get the night before you drive to Cedar Point or Disney; pure excitement.  This rush of feel-good ignited that spark that I lost long ago.  Just as he told me, his idea didn't make the cut, but his suggestion, along with the blissful music of Iron & Wine, got me drawing again.  I spent and hour drawing and shading, and I now have the will to return to bed.


     I feel like my days are filled with uselessness, and waking up late and playing games all day are exactly the reason.  And because I don't feel like the day was fulfilling, I find it difficult to sleep.  When I lay down, my mind races and I can't shut it down.  I haven't rested enough lately to actually dream.  Tonight, I'm setting my alarm for 11, and when I get up, I'm going to work out, eat a good lunch, and hopefully hang out with some friends.


*     I'd like to thank anyone who reads this blog.  Having an audience to share my dreams and thoughts with is indescribably awesome.  Hopefully my subconscience will have something to post for you all soon.

Dream Blog Entry #16

     It's been a while...  I had all kinds of dreams while I was "away" (lazy) but nothing truly worthy of posting.  But I feel that it's been too long, and last night's dream was worthy.

     I first remember walking through a forest.  I was headed north, trying to get to some town or village to see someone (blame Final Fantasy 6).  As I walked, I came across this odd little town-ish thing.  There were four or five building visible, and they all had a sleek, Master Chief green metal theme.  A few people were walking around outside, and they were all wearing suit-uniforms that matched the green metal coats on the buildings.  As I entered the town, I was approached by Blair Brown (Fringe's Nina Sharp), and she escorted me into one of the buildings, and sat me down at a table.  She reached down and pressed her thumb into my knee, and immense pain overwhelmed me.  She told me that I had a fracture on my knee cap, and she knew this because the town has an advanced radar system that analyzes every organism within range.  She then proceeded to tell me that they installed this radar system because the local animal population has been infected with some potentially ecosystem devastating disease, and this system helps them find the sick animals and treat them before they infect more species.

     After hearing more about the animals and such, I left the town and continued on my northward journey.  As I reentered the forest, I gained this weird enlightened feeling, and woke up shortly after, retaining that rush for a good 15 minutes.
