nightmare

Harvey — Thu, 27 Dec 2007 16:43:23 GMT

I dreamt that I was someone else, or perhaps I was just inhabiting her body, but I certainly wasn't me. I lived in the same apartment building as Berto. The landscape had a gritty, grey feel to it. I think we were in New York or Chicago. Berto and I were just becoming friends. I left my apartment and went out into the hall.... but realized that something was wrong. I could interact with my environment, but everything seemed somewhat distant. I had to pound really hard on doors to even hear the tiniest of sounds. Then I notice something coming towards me. It was a shape surrounded by an absence of light. It was ominous and I was terrified. I tried to run. I got to Berto's apartment, but he didn't hear me knocking. I went out onto the balcony so that I could look into his windows to try to get his attention, but no matter how hard I screamed he never looked up and the shape kept advancing.

the end.

Drama

aneel — Wed, 01 Mar 2006 19:18:01 GMT

I was visiting Maggie, who was in the middle of producing a play. For some reason, she was actually acting in it as well. Another of the actors had gone missing, so I agreed to fill in. But none of the rest of the actors were told, so I was acting a role I didn't know and only Maggie was helping prompt me about what my character was supposed to do.

Costuming

aneel — Wed, 01 Feb 2006 21:13:21 GMT

I was going to appear in a movie. I had the perfect brocade jacket to be a guardsman, but I kept searching for my calf-high leather engineer boots. I'm not sure why I thought they'd be at my parents' house. I'm not sure why my friend Lauri was there either. Definitely not to help find the missing boots. Probably to give me a hard time about why, exactly, I owned a brocade jacket...

picnic and belly

Harvey — Fri, 16 Dec 2005 17:15:44 GMT

I dreamt that valerie and sam and I went on a picnic with a large group of people I didn't know.

We found a shady spot and sat down, while someone began playing guitar and someone else began signing.

the baby began kicking so I made Valerie feel my belly. I also made sam feel my belly, but he couldn't feel any kicking.

I then decided to stand up and do a spoken word piece about the contents of my wallet. It wasn't very good.

Short Dream

aneel — Wed, 23 Nov 2005 15:45:28 GMT

Fifi and I were assembling a very large television from parts. Or maybe it was only very large relative to us, since we looked to be about 5 years old.

Shut Up!

Harvey — Sun, 30 Oct 2005 18:33:37 GMT

I dreamt that Jenny and I were hanging out. Jenny said something that didn't make any sense. I looked at her and said in a sing songy voice, "Shut UP!".

Jenny just looked at me as though she was fed up and stormed off.

I tried to chase her. I tried to catch her to apologize, to tell her that I didn't mean it the way it sounded, but she refused to stop or speak to me.

And that was the end of our friendship.

Poetry Class

aneel — Sat, 01 Oct 2005 17:08:37 GMT

A bunch of us were going to run a poetry discussion at a library. The librarian gave me a big box of bookmarks to hand out made of a cool transparent plastic in a variety of colors.

Aerin was trying to use an overhead projector to present a poem, but everyone had their desks arranged in clusters, rather than in an organization that let everyone see the screen.

We tried rearranging the desks for a while, then decided that the small group discussions would be better than the whole group at once, so we left them in clusters after all.

Throughout this, I was noticing that my back was hurting a lot (in the dream), and when I woke up, it turned out I was lying wrong and my back *did* hurt. So much for the "pinching myself to be sure I'm not dreaming theory."

Long Dream

aneel — Sun, 05 Sep 2004 19:26:25 GMT

I was in an office, working. I knew I'd been laid off, and I was just there to finish a project, but I hadn't been paid in weeks, so I was frustrated. I told Melissa that I was fed up, and we left for lunch, but somehow we picked up another 8 people on the way out of the office, including Kristen and my old friend Dan Winship.

We walked to a Greek restaurant. For some reason, I'm carrying a lot of luggage, and Kristen asks me if i have enough bags. I answer "No". But the luggage was heavy.

We get there and, of course, they can't seat the whole party, so we wait. People get seated a few at a time, and I manage to put down one of my bags and lose it, so I get distracted looking for it. While I'm looking, everyone but me is seated.

Finally, I think "There's nothing important in that bag anyway, just my sleeping bag", so I go to the table. But the table is packed, and rather than try to crowd in another seat, I go back to the waiting area.

The waiting area turns out to now be covered with sleeping bags, all laid out. But none of them are mine. I walk along the hallway, stepping with one leg on each side of each sleeping bag to not mess them up (they're nicely laid out) and talk to the hostess.

She says she'll find me a table, and we go to an elevator. The doors of the elevator open out on a beautiful vista (oddly, at street level). A really cool looking deco-inspired futuristic light rail train goes by. There's some animatronic flying animal that's bothering one of the other people on this balcony, but the hostess tells it to leave him alone.

There's an old man there putting up a fence — the kind with white, round, 6in diameter posts — and i remember that this is a famous view and that I get to check an item off of my list of SF tourist attractions.

I head back to the elevator to go up a floor and get to the tables in the glassed-in area with the view.

in the supermarket with rob and mike

Harvey — Sun, 05 Sep 2004 00:55:57 GMT

I was shopping in some huge megashopping store, sort of like costco. Mike was looking at clothes and fondling the produce. Rob and I were chatting when a 6 year old boy walked over. He looked at Rob and said conspiratorily pointing at a tall blond who was picking out strawberries, "Don't tell my wife I said this, but I own a house", To me this didn't really mean anything, but Rob was angry. the indignity that a 6year old could have a wife and house and be so flippant about it.

Seriously, who brags about owning a house?

zombie garden

Harvey — Mon, 30 Aug 2004 01:04:59 GMT

I had snuck out of the house at midnight to get myself a latte. The barristas did not understand my order for decaf and would only give me caf, I left feeling frustrated and disappointed. I ran into Aneel and Maggie who were on their way to have lunch in a garden, so I tagged along. From far away the garden was lovely and terraced, but as we entered I began to notice the rotting plants and dead animals. I was uncomfortable with the smell and could not eat my lunch, aneel and maggie were content to eat their lunch and discuss art and current events, I left them chatting gayly together as the zombies began to come out.

Ice Skaters

Harvey — Sun, 29 Aug 2004 16:45:54 GMT

Aneel, Christina and I were ice skaters. Christina was wearing strap-on iceskates over open-toed platform shoes, which I thought were the stupidest things ever and told her so. then she fell and stubbed her toes and i sad, "I told you so". Then Kyra who was the new choreographer moved into the judges box right on the edge of our rink. it was all windows so we could see in and she could see us from every angle. I knew Kyra from before I was an iceskater and knew that she was nice. I wanted to convince the other skaters but they wera afraid of change and didn't want to like someone new.

Forgery

aneel — Mon, 23 Aug 2004 23:56:53 GMT

Last night I forged a *lot* of money. I had to make sure that it would pass, so I took it to a noted currency expert (namely Melissa) to check it out.

There was more, but sadly this was the dream before the "What time is it? 6:30? No, I'm going back to sleep." waking, rather than the final waking of the morning, so I didn't bring much of it back with me.

(Hello to my friends in domestic surveillance.)
