You're never safe.
I was riding my bike down the sidewalk at night through an area full of upscale hotels. There were few people and cars, strangely. I saw Angelina Jolie and her brood walking toward their room, but they were alone - no photogs, bodyguards, fans. I barely slowed down. (So unlike me.) I was looking for a place to work as a server, tired as I am ( Read more... ) -
Halloween came early, I guess?
Ghosts. Sort of a theme park full of them. A neglected swimming pool full of spirits waiting for fresh meat to wander too close. A slide in a playground where little chunks of dead kids slide down out of nowhere every few minutes to a rotating team of forensics people who bag them and try to match them to reports of who's missing. A haunted ( Read more... ) -
God and his little jokes.
I dreamed that once you get to "heaven", God has one final eensy weensy test for you. He lines everybody up (yes, everybody) and walks us over to a looooong row of what appears to be wood and wire rabbit hutches. He opens the door of the first one with a flourish and says to the first person in line "Hop on in!" First person is confused. Heaven ( Read more... ) -
Jim
and Jim, and Jim again. All night, it seemed. Scenes from the past revisited, scenes of a possible future. We talked about why it didn't work out, and why it never would, and how it could. There was sex, tears, anger, sweetness, and I woke up, and Lilah thumped her tail in greeting, and the world was back. The world where Jim never wants to ( Read more... ) -
Back to the dreams. Good? Bad? Interesting, at least.
I dreamed I lived in some fantasy realm, the kind where sci-fi-con people would like to live, but I was not an elf or faerie or anything lovely. I was some big hairy monster guy. I had a house that was pretty thrashed on the inside where I would occasionally go to rest, drop off or pick up junk, pass out until my wounds conjealed, that kind of ( Read more... ) -
In this place
I have one friend I'd like to ask, "What happened? When did you decide I wasn't worth your time? When did I become uninteresting, when did my feelings become unimportant, what did I say or do?" I can't say it though, because he'd say "What are you talking about? You're totally overreacting. Nothing is wrong, we're still friends, I still care ( Read more... ) -
waily waily
extra special nightmares for your reading pleasure. I had a panic attack in the dream because I got into a huge arguement with my dad (about?) and suddenly, everything in my house was replaced with a stranger's belongings. Same amount of things and in the same locations, but everything was changed. My cell phone was now someone else's phone, all ( Read more... ) -
It's 5 am and I'm awake.
Give me just a few minutes alone and I'm there at the cliff edge of despair, but the pills keep me from falling in, thank whomever. The people I thought loved me don't, and the ones who do can't always do it the way I'd like, and I for damn sure can't love me the way I should. Wish that when I get to thinking about the disappointments I've ( Read more... ) -
Bugs again.
This time some man was full of ants. The doctor couldn't even do anything. The guy was just full of ants. Dreamed I ate some kind of bug larva off a stick that was part of the ordinary diet of some people on another continent. Gave me awful hallucinations. Dreamed there was a guy on a ranch who was cruel to horses so I killed him and threw him ( Read more... ) -
Nasty icky blech.
Dreamed my damn thumb fell off because it was full of worms. I had a little wound, and I was examining it, and lifted a little tear in the skin to reveal a writhing white mass of tiny worms. I started frantically shaking my hand to get them out, and more fell out than could possibly have fit in there. As I was shaking I hear a crack, and the ( Read more... )
