So I had a dream where I was finally back in college. It was late, I was brushing my teeth, and then I remembered, "I can't go to bed yet, I have math homework to do" and I was actually happy about it. I think that's my subconscious letting me know just how much I really want to get back to school. :|

Of course then it switched to my brother wanting to go to some school event, and needing a chaperon. It was last-minute and getting late, so my mom had me go with him. I agreed reluctantly, but it turns out the event was a Star Trek convention and I was filled with relative glee. They were showing movie previews in one room, and most of them ran on the theme of SCARY ANIMAL vs SCARY ANIMAL. The last one was like, sea turtles vs penguins or something, but after some fierce-looking shots of the dangerous sea turtles, it panned out to show that they were all just kind of stuck on one side of this rock wall and couldn't actually get to the penguins. That produced the narrated line, "What are they going to do, throw food over the wall and hope that the penguins overeat to death?"

Then that switched into a preview for a movie about what would have happened if Padmé Amidala had a shoe obsession and had been kidnapped halfway through the second Star Wars movie by Hitler. I think it was with the intention of forced marriage, and I think they were in Scotland anyway. I am not making this up.

So yeah. I applaud myself for being able to come up with such comedy in my sleep.

I had a dream last night that the newest chapter of DOGS: Bullets and Carnage revealed that Nill had been hiding the secret that she was actually some kind of robo-clone with the freaky ability to manipulate electronic devices.

On the bright side, she was instantly given more backstory.

On the not-so-bright side, all I could think was, "Well shit, there goes that plot."

Although now that I'm awake and lucid, I can almost see it as a possible plot twist. DOGS is weird like that. Half the cast is already a genetic experiment anyway, so I wouldn't put it past them to kick the dial to eleven.

Just... Not with Nill.

...

The anime needs to be freaking done already, c'mon. ;_;

I had another dream about Disneyland last night... Which is a little weird. But I reeeally liked it there, so I'm not too surprised. ;; There's this arts college in Los Angeles I'm going to apply to just because if I get accepted, I could logically pull off signing up for the Disney internship program and work at Disneyland. *3* That would be a dream come true, srsly.

My dream was also about moving to this crappy little house and living in the attic. We had a weirdo vampire butler. I was just homesick the entire time, but I figured we were only going to be there for a week or two--then I asked my mom how long we'd have to stay there and she said we'd be there for almost twenty years and that my dad, due to strange circumstances with dates, would have to stay there for fifty. And I sort of snapped and started breaking things because no one told me and it really pissed me off that I'd been bumped from my home without realizing I wasn't ever really going back.

My dad also put toast in his pocket at one point. That was during the Disneyland portion. I think after snapping, my brain went to Disneyland to cope with the emotional stress. THOUGH NEAR THE END... I "woke up" and answered my phone, and it turned out to be that one teen temp agency hiring organization I can't remember the name of. So I hung up on their second sentence.

Immediately afterwords I was all, "CRAP NO I COULD HAVE GOTTEN THEIR NAME AGAIN FFSJALKSFJ I NEED A JOB. B("

I'm so not bank savvy. I wish I'd had a finance and life-skills class that actually taught me these things in high school. ):

For pinkrum. Someday, Meg, I will draw you a fabulous Batman worthy of DC Comic's greatness (or something) but for now you get a ten minute doodle. HA. Though the speech bubble is actually for a_belletrist, who is probably the only other human being on the planet who would get the joke. LOL I'M GOING TO INK IT TODAY SO THAT IT'S A MORE PROFESSIONAL DOODLE. Gawd inking makes me so nervous. I'll have to get over that. :T

I was gonna go to the mall today to look for work, but it's rainy and gross and I woke up late. So I'm going to research colleges instead. And see if I can get my hair to go curly. And maybe re-think my life a little but I do that all the time, so.

( More Dreams )

( That Alice in Wonderland Movie )

( Artsy Stuff )

OH JAYSUS... Almost choked on water. I'm so cool, guys. I'll be clearing my throat for a week.

So I had this weird dream involving feeding Special Fred bits of pre-cut index cards, carrots that were eaten like ice-cream cones and tasted more like corn than anything, and hanging around the Seattle Science Center which was conveniently located next to Disneyland. For those of you who keep up with my dream rambles, you should know that this sort of thing is pretty much the typical dream session for me.

Anyway, I woke up and started really missing Disneyland. It was like, a super-expensive dream-come-true over there, srsly. So now I'm totally going to check out that Disney college and internship program just because going to school in Disneyland would be full of amazing. I dunno if they do art stuff but pshaw, that's what research is for.

So after realizing that I didn't have to go to the DMV today, or whatever they're calling it now, I went back to sleep and had more of those weird dreams of mine. But the best part is that it started out as a fandom crossover dream. It's all proof I've been hanging out in paradisa a little too much.

( This is what I can remember: )

On the bright side, I have the financial aid papers I need now, my house is stocked with my favorite kind of healthy cereal, it's not a millions degrees out today, I found my "Requiem for a Dream" music track, and Avatar will be on tonight again like it has all week. My icon-making mojo also seems to be back. I think this is cause for celebration.

On the 'eeeeeh?' side, I was having whacked-up dreams last night (but when have my dreams ever been normal, really?) and I can remember then happening in, like, chapters. pained_life was there, and I think you were telling me something that you would have told me in real-life, though I can't remember what it was. But my brain made you very in-character, I'm rather proud of myself. I think there were vampires involved too, but that's a given. The entire thing seemed to point to the fact that I shouldn't read Johnny the Homicidal Maniac comics right before bed. Like the moon, Nny. Like the moon. Gawd, what a depressing ending.

( Cut for those of you who don't want to read about blood everywhere: )

So I had this weird-ass dream where I was in (and at the same time, watching) some old Batman movie (that consequently doesn't actually exist; my brain made the whole thing up) and there was lots of dancing on rooftops and strange monkey-goblin people who lived in this vast underground cavern who turned out to be demons because they got all fangy and ew after a while. I think they were the bad guys, blah blah blah ritual sacrifice. But then we escaped, and Batman was just sort of like, "._." the whole time. We ended up in the ocean somehow (maybe the monkey-goblins lived underwater?) and then the Devil came up to the surface and he looked a lot like David Bowie. And then we made a deal with him, though idk what it was. Something to do with half a soul, or half a day. OR BOTH. And there was Fall Out Boy music. I remember thinking in the dream, when it zoomed out and showed that I was actually watching the movie and wasn't in the movie) that Fall Out Boy wasn't even around when this non-existent movie was made, wtf.

Because the day I have a dream that makes perfect logical sense will be the day a universe explodes for no real reason.

Although I have noticed that in almost all my dreams, there's me, some other person who's pretty important to my dream's vague storyline, and then a couple other people who just follow us around. The couple other people aren't really given depth, and I don't know what they really look like, and they usually don't say anything, they're just... Around. Like NPC party members or something.

OBSERVATION: This is the third dream I've had this week.

CONCLUSION: I should stop eating cake right before going to bed at one in the morning. :T

RANDOM: I wish I lived in HKI Hollow Bastion. It's like, my favorite video game setting ever because it's just so hip.

My stomach flu. Let me show you it.

Fail, immune system. Ultimate fail.

( I had the weirdest dream last night, too. )

Last night I had a dream where my feet were turning into giant mushrooms.

No joke.

I should stop eating weird shit before I go to bed.

I had another dream last night. I don't remember it too well, but I was being stalked by this weird guy who wanted to marry me, my father transformed into a talking billboard, and there was a machine that could show you what your voice looked like. Apparently my voice sounds like orange stars, and they get bigger when I laugh. No one else's voice was that shape-tastic (the guy next to me that made the machine got blue bubbles with only an occasional red crescent moon) but the weird stalker guy's voice was a bunch of bubbles in a pretty rainbow pattern. Interpret as you will.

It's currently 9:32am in Seattle~ Here's the stuff I want to get done today:

• Raid Mom's recycling for old catalog stuff to decorate my school composition notebooks with.
• Buy an alarm clock with a snooze button, I guess. One that doesn't play polka music, plz.
• Soak my foot with Epsom Salts or whatever. My heel's all weird right now. :/
• Clean my room so that it stops smelling like slightly stale air in here.
• Remind Mom to do that thing with my computer and the Palm Pilot or whatever. Yeah.
• Get back-to-school paperwork from said Mom and start signing away my soul for another year.
• LAUNDRY LAUNDRY LAUNDRY LAUNDRY LAUNDRY~
• Get... Blank journals from Mom, maybe? If she's got them hangin' around?
• Talk to Mom about possibly playing American McGee's Alice. 'Cause it looks awesome.
• Catch up with my f-list, for srsly. :O
• Spam the hell out of Paradisa, seeing as I've been pretty sparse for two days.
• Read more of 1984, because it's good.
• And finish updating all my character wikis, whoo~

Chock one up for the crazy dream count.

This one was particularly creepy and violent as far as my dreams go, although it wasn't a nightmare. I wasn't nearly as scared in it as I should be, I guess.

From what I can remember of it, it starts out with me finally watching one of those horror movie type deals. Sorta like... The Ring mixed with The Grudge (even though I haven't actually seen either of them, just the previews and stuff, wtf brain) and I finished it and thought, 'Eh, okay, that wasn't so bad. I don't know what all the hype was about.'

And then a little while later in the dream-day, I started like, getting all jittery and kinda freaked out because I was home alone (in my really sexy dream-house by a lake, which was pretty awesome) and there had been a scene in the movie with ghost-zombie-people or something when the chick in the movie had been home alone. And I was like, '...okay, maybe it was a little scary, yeah...'

( Of course, that's when it starts to get weird... )

So, um, I keep having this reoccurring dream where I check my email.

And there are four new inbox messages every time I look.

...does this mean I'm crazy?
