time warp

Hi everyone,
so I had a weird OE dream last night. First of all, I drank this weird shake before bed and was already acting a little woo woo so it's not surprising that I would have a crazy dream. And sometimes when I have OE dreams its just a bunch of us and I can't really make out faces, and if I can then I don't remember. I think Ashley was there, and Chris, and maybe Kasey. But definitely a handful of us. And it was like we were doing this "time warp" thing, like the song from Rocky Horror, but in REAL LIFE (aka dream life). And we would dance across this room and in each section of the room we would either go back in time or forward in time. But when you were in a section you didn't actually go anywhere, you just felt that it was a different year or month or something. So finally I went into a "present time" section, and I had this huge amazing monologue thing (worthy of a Patrick play, I'm sure) and I just told everyone how we shouldn't be going back and forth in time. It felt really meaningful and powerful, so I thought I would share it here. Plus, no one has posted in forever...so, COME ON, guys!

Love,
e

untitled

hi little family,

here's a little dream for you. i almost wasn't going to put it here because it doesn't feel like a real dream (for lack of story arc) but when i mentioned that to matthew he said - "that's silly, there are no small dreams, only small dreamers" (that part i made up)

okay here it is:

last night i saw chance and i held his elbow, like good friends do, and i said chance, dear chance, how are you? and it was nice to see him but he looked weary.

with love,
llw

elise's doppelganger

I dreamed I was in a bar talking with this girl who looked exactly like Elise but was not Elise. I only knew she was not Elise because she was wearing a mesh sports jersey, baggy jeans, and adidas sneakers. And her hair was really spiky. The weirdest part was, as I was talking to this girl, I could hear Elise's voice talking to me from inside my head. Creepy, huh.

a good ending to a scary dream

i dreamed that i was hired at holden (!) and my mom agreed to drive me there, only on the way she got mad at me and dropped me off on the side of the road in my bare feet. i didn't know what else to do so i just stood there and screamed. it was very scary, but somehow i ended up getting to holden. and when i got there i was so happy to see ashley and chance that i could not breathe.

Hugs

Hey there!
I think I crossed paths with a whole bunch of people (OE and otherwise) at a store mashed with a house earlier in my dream where I saw Lyndi. She was too far away for me to find her before the dream introduced a few more people. Later on, I walked into an old friends house, and Lyndi was standing on the stairs with a couple random people. We hugged and said the usual greetings. When I looked up, I saw into the kitchen where Scott was cooking dinner for a small party and wearing a big diamond earring.

War Dreams.

Last night in dream-land there was a giant war being waged against and unknown enemy, but Duncan rushed into the room I was standing in, fell over and was bleeding. His hair was shaved pretty short, but a big chunk of hair on the top of his head was burned off. He was in charge of something really important too, although I didn't know the specifics. I'm blaming One Hundred Years of Solitude for my war dream.

badasses

so i had another matt dream, and he is probably going to be mad at me for having another one of him like this, because apparently according to my ONE dream about him being my mom (haha), im afraid of telling him about stuff or something to protect his innocence. But i think it is safe to say that we have passed that stage in our relationship after our conversation in holland last week. So matt, I love you like a brother I never had, and take this dream with a grain of salt, please:

last night I dreamt that I was in this room in a place that felt like minnesota and was with a bunch of girls who i didn't really know, and we were all wearing crazy awesome tshirts that we all bought at salvation army. then i see matt outside the window and i yell to him to come over, and im yelling really loudly and with a lot of force. It felt like the kind of yelling like when you are in a large crowded room and you are trying to talk to people. And I remember giggling to myself afterwards because I was so loud, but I wasn't ashamed, I was happy because I was calling for a friend. And finally Matt opened the door and he was wearing this motorcycle helmet and carrying two stuffed animals. I didn't question the fact that he was wearing a badass helmet and also carrying a stuffed animal. I even said to him, "Matt, I like your stuffed animals". And we chatted for a bit, and I realized that one of his toys was the same dolphin stuffed animal that our dog has.
