Listening to:
Nothing yet. Just spending some time journalling before Andromeda comes on. James Marsters (Spike, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) is on this week's episode. I just want to see if he can act as anything other than Spike. (Ooo ~ should I be saying, "Saucer of milk at table two?")
This is My Brain on Cheese
I've been thinking about the dream experiences of the past few days. I'm not sure I have the words yet to express what I feel about it ~ I'm not even sure if I totally know what I feel about it. I do know that I want ~ and need ~ to put it into my words.
(BTW ~ last night's dream was an ordinary dream about having to rent a car. I ended up with a little white Nissan and an acqaintance got a huge, yellowish/tan truck with oversized tires. We decided to switch because each vehicle was better suited to the other person. That truck was a blast to drive! When it came time to turn the vehicles back in, I had a problem because the truck was rented from some little outfit in Minnesota ~ and there was nowhere else to turn it in.)
I'm really struggling with this, mainly because it is starting to sound as cheesy as a bad episode of "Star Wars." I keep expecting some wheezy guy to come up to me in my dreams and announce, "Turn to the Dark Side and embrace your destiny!"
Tangent alert: I can't think of Darth Vader now without thinking about Conan O'Brien and Triumph the Insult Dog. When Star Wars opened in New York City, 'Triumph' went out to greet them. One guy was dressed (very well, I'll add) as Darth Vader and Triumph asked, "What is this little box on your chest?"
"It allows me to breathe." (Obviously in character.)
"...and which one of these little buttons calls your parents to pick you up when the movie's over?"
Anyway...getting back on track here...even if this were nothing more than a product of my own brain (which, with the incident last night, doesn't look as likely as it might once have), couldn't it be something a little more original than the old and tired idea of a catfight between 'good' and 'evil'? This isn't what I lean toward at all.
