of course i dream of giant floating letters.

• 01.23.07- All I can remember from last night’s dream is that we were at work but it was a classroom. And Sherry took her top off and had a girdle on, and then she was taking that off and it was really awkward and everyone was trying not to look but she was in the front of the room.

• 01.24.07- I was straightening my hair in my dream last night. It was really short and wavy and I was in a hurry. Also I may have been shaving my legs at some point in the dream.

• 01.27.07- I had a dream I went to an estate sale with the guy who owns Chop Suey and his wife (I don’t know these people). It was the home of a guy who was a cult leader or something. There were lots of buildings and trailers and it was all in a field. We were hunting for bargains and I found a lot of dishes that matched my set with the green daisies, but they were like the reject pieces that had no clear purpose. I also found a lot of drinking glasses that matched the set.

• 01.28.07- My dream last night had to do with Lost. I dreamt I was on an island and there were all these shallow tide pools and people were making letters out of ice or something white that floated. Specifically I remember lowercase e’s. They were so people could see it and read it from an airplane. And I was thinking, “Why didn’t they ever do that before? What a great idea!”. There was more of a storyline involving Lost, but I can’t remember clearly.

almost nightmare.

• 01.22.07- I had a dream I was having some kind of portfolio review, or an interview or something. I had all my work everywhere, all spread out on the floor. I think it was in my mom’s living room. I had huge posters and things on canvas, and I was piling them up and photographing them and getting rolled up prints, and it was chaos. There were a a bunch of people there. The only things I remember specifically was one painting that was red with a white circle, and one big poster with some kind of thing that looked like it was from an Atari game like Space Invaders.

• 01.19.07- I had a dream I lived in NY and I couldn’t remember how to get home. I was getting really frantic because the only place I knew how to get to was Grier’s old apartment and he doesn’t live there any more. I think Erin Holmes was there. I may have later had dreams about Video I-pods.

• 01.20.07- I had dreams about being in the woods near a pond, which I think was kind of like the pond near my mom’s house. I also remember my cat (but as a baby) wearing a flea collar. Later I had a dream that I was working in NYC at a big building at like 4am staying late. And there were all these windows and I was looking out and Grier called and wanted to come up. I went down to meet him and there was a gallery exhibit going on and the security guard let us go look at it. It was of little tiny costumes, like Halloween costumes. We were walking in the rooms looking at them, and the lights went out and it was pitch black. Then later I was back upstairs and it was kind of like work now, and Dave was telling me I had to give up my office because 1. he wanted it and it had windows, and 2. no one liked me. So I had to go work in a room with no windows and a ton of people, and everyone thought I was a bitch. It was really uncomfortable.

Dreamy.

I started writing down my dreams a few months ago. I decided to blog them now, because really they are funny sometimes, and I do love dreams. Sadly, most of my dreams are about Matt and Dave, which I realize is extremely odd. I think it's because they make me drink beer more than anyone else. Here is the collection so far:

10.18.06- Last night I dreamed I was in an office building, looking at the classified ads for a new job. I saw an ad with a big black square, which was for a job cutting out big black squares and things with X-acto knives. I thought this would be a good job because I like things like that, so I called them and they told me I should send my resume, for a potentially better job. So I faxed my resume to them from work, and Dave Wolfe saw me do that and got mad and told me I wouldn’t like that job and I shouldn’t use the fax machine at work. And then all I remember is large black squares cut out everywhere.

10.19.06- My dream last night was that Emily and I were in NYC. We were in the subway, getting ready to get on the A train, and she was getting on first, and the train suddenly started taking off really fast. Emily almost fell off and we got separated and everyone started freaking out. I was trying to call for help on my cell phone but I couldn’t since it was underground. So I started trying to get out of the subway and all these people were running and stuff.

10.20.06- I don’t fully remember this dream but I know I was in a big house with some people. We were hiding or something. Outside there was a wolf (or a werewolf?) and it was chasing a big white fluffy cat and there was a full moon and it was in a cornfield. The werewolf was almost like someone dressed up in a costume.

10.22.06- Last night I had a dream and it was in Georgia for some reason. And I was lying in Matt Wirt’s bed and I was going to play a trick on him by being there. And then he came in and he was with a girl and he was drunk, and I was suddenly like “oh no he will NOT think this is funny at all.” So I jumped out of the window, and ran out in to the alley but I then realized I was in my underwear, and then I had to run down the sidewalk to my apartment and there were all these cars coming by. And then I got home and got to my bed and I pulled back the covers and Dave was there. And he was like “I had to leave b/c Matt had someone over.” And I was like “Yeah, I know, I just came from there.” And then I went outside.

10.24.06- I was in the attic of a house. I don’t think it was my attic. But I was up there and there were mini-blinds on the windows and there was bad guy in the attic and I was trying to get away from him. There were 2 windows and one was too high up to jump from. The other was above an awning on the roof, so I jumped out onto that. I think it was raining. That’s all I remember.

10.25.06- I was grocery shopping in a tiny grocery store (almost like a convenience store) with my mom. That’s all I remember.

10.26.06- I can’t remember anything other than yellow leather gloves.

11.19.06- Last night I had a dream that I was getting the recycling together outside of my house with Dave. And there was a lot of it. It kept falling into the street and I had to go pick it up everywhere. Then we were done and I was going back inside and he was leaving to go home and this car pulled up and this creepy guy was coming towards the house and everything was moving really slowly. I was trying to get inside, the guy was coming up the sidewalk to the house, and Dave was walking away. And I started to yell for him, to come back to help me, and he turned around and looked at me and started to come back and I felt safe. That’s all I remember. Also I think I had another dream there was a Tractor Supply Co. store down the street.

**I somehow erased my most recent dreams 01-07-07. Here is a brief summary of some from the past month I can remember.

• I’ve had a few of dreams about amusement parks. One was about riding an elaborate ride that I think would be like the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. It had water and a lot of rooms and you rode in a boat.

• I had a dream Erin wanted to have her wedding at a dilapidated old farm house/shack in the middle of nowhere. It was green and missing pieces and had darker green boards in patches. The porch was boarded up. There may have been hound dogs there.

• This may have been from the same dream, but I was eating dinner with my dad and Faye. I think we were having spaghetti. I think we were at my grandmother’s house. And we were riding in a pickup truck later.

• I had a dream the other night Kendal bought us cupcakes at work that had little stickers with our pictures on them. They came from a place in Carytown and they delivered them on a big tray. They had candy in little plastic clear containers on top and I saw that the candy was the same kind we have downstairs in the pumpkin. I thought it was a good idea for a business.

• I’ve had several dreams lately about being late to work. I may have had one last night. I had one the night before I was really sick and missed work that I came in late and everyone was freaking out and asking where I had been and I was trying to get things done at my desk and Dave came in and asked me what was going on and I started getting upset because I was really overwhelmed and I started crying and he put his hand on my shoulder.

• I vaguely remember a dream where I was drinking champagne and I really liked it. I may have also had a dream the other night that I was drinking.

• I had a dream I was sleeping in bed with Matt in a friendly way, and that I heard all this noise outside in the yard and also then in the house and I looked out and my dad was in the yard moving furniture and he had let the cat out and I was pissed and worried he would see Matt there and think I was a tramp even though it was platonic.

• I had a dream that was I sleeping with someone (in a non-friendly) way and I couldn’t tell who it was. I thought it was one person but it looked like someone else but I don’t think it was either person. And I was looking out of the window at some point and saw someone walking by.

• I had a dream I found 2 stray kittens and a mama cat with my dad. One was a grey tabby (as was the mom) and the other was orange tabby. And I was definitely going to keep the orange tabby but I wanted to keep all of them. Then I was in a basement type of place that seemed like my mom’s basement. Someone was taking a shower and then there was all this red dye in the shower that we had to wash out.

• January 11, 2007- I dreamt I was at the fair and I was with Dave. He wanted to go see these pig races and Matt was there already. I was feeling weird and you had to have a dollar to get in and I didn’t have any cash, so I told him to go ahead and I would do something else. He started to come back after he had already gone in and I stopped him. I went off and it started raining. I saw Mike Dyson, and I stood under a tree to stay dry. Then I saw Bill Coombs run by in a rickshaw/dragon thing. Later I think I was at my mom’s house. Dave and Matt may have also been there and then they left without telling me.

• January 12, 2007- I think I had a dream that I wanted to ask for nicer towels for my birthday.

• January 13, 2007- I think this dream was last night at least. It may not have been. I dreamt about the little animal ornaments I have and I was putting them away in their box. Some of them were stamps as well. I was missing some of them.

• January 15, 2007- I had a dream I slept in and decided to go to work late. At 1:00pm Blake called and was really pissed I was not there. And I was like “Well, it’s not like you actually do any work anyway”. And he got really mad. So I went into work and when I got there, I realized I had a rash all over my stomach. But it was like a digital bitmap rash. I think it was tiny pictures of fish or trees. So I was like “I definitely should go home, now”. I went to find Blake to tell him I was sick and show him the rash. I was wearing a silk chartreuse pleated mini skirt, a sweatshirt, tennis shoes, and my hair was all crazy and I had no makeup on. I went downstairs to find Blake and I went into this classroom where everyone was. I walked in and Dave was in a tiny school desk wearing a light blue shirt. I was embarrassed because I looked like awful and I had that digital rash. I asked him where Blake was and he pointed to him and asked what was wrong. I told him I had a weird rash and he asked to see it but I told him no, it was too gross. Then I showed Blake.
