dreams

i had a dream last night that i got my ears pierced. i really have no idea where that came from, as i have not thought of it much recently. perhaps i will pierce them when i head out to LA. i was pretty happy with the results in my dream. someone did tell me i think too much about it. :) perhaps this is confirmation?

dreams are weird. back when it was time to start a new semester at MIT, i would have dreams about my teeth falling out, or being totally unprepared for a test (close to reality most of the time). you guys ever have any weird dreams? i remember falling dreams when i was a kid. those were fun. my favorite were they flying dreams.

i have always been a fan of movies that mix what is real and what is a dream. despite the content, i really liked vanilla sky. they even managed to have some actual truth buried within. it could have played out a little better, tho.

i was up until 4am last night, finishing those advertisements for realLife. i will put up copies of them one day. i promise. really. i just have not had time.

i leave to visit LA in a week and a day. it will be a lot of fun to see friends and spend time with them. i really love that city.


i just realized that after labor day, my next day off is thanksgiving. that's a long time.

Dave,

if you're interested in dreams and the search for meaning, check out the movie "Waking Life" written and directed by Richard Linklater, and the book "Man and His Symbols" by Karl Jung. Both would be well worth your time.

i often dream that i'm chums with people with much political power (e.g., housemates with Arnold Schwarzeneggar, hanging at a bookstore with Bill Clinton, chilling at a family gathering with the Bushes). Any interpretations?

rkp,
I have an interpertation. You are crazy. Plain cold insane. You wish you had power to carry out your evil plans and ensnare hapless victims. You also wish you had big manly pecks like your next governor
