until enough old posts were answered. Other people try and they are blocked
too...

I had a dream this morning that me and several other AGFers
(who i've only seen pics of, but never met in person) were at a BIG convention.. kinda like convergance.
(i'm not even going, nor have i ever been!) We were all dressed GAF. i'm talking to the hilt!! corsets, boots, vinyl..
we looked HOT! Mmm!! we were dripping in our gothyness.. and everyone was like WOAH!!!...
they got out of our way and bowed down to us!! That is when this hot guy comes up to me and won't
leave me alone!! he's not bugging me, but it's like i met my soulmate or something... he's tall, and skinny,
big ass buckle boots, black skin tight rubber pants with matching shirt... he's pale like a sheet and has
eyeliner masterfully on. his hair is this KICKASS blueblack and spikey short.. Ahhh but i digress.. after that,
we all end up at this table JUST for us. It's laid out in dark blood red velvet with candles etc.. people are c
omming up offering us clothes... then we all end up dancing and having a good time.. after dancing we head
back to the table.. but this is where some how, in my dream i got lost...

the other night i had this dream that there were these two long
lines of boys facing each other. on one side there were all the good
agf boys/boyfriends, and on the other side were all the
ex-boyfs and wankers. it was so weird. and like, all the agf
girls were dancing down the aisle between the two lines of boys and were all
running and laughing and had feather boas, right? and the girls were like
hugging and smiling at all the lovely boys and telling the how great they
were, and spitting at and kicking and frowing and shouting abuse at the line
of exes.

I have a recurring one where I'm shopping in a city full of thrift
shops with assorted a.g.fers (no one identifiable though, I
just know in my dream that that's where I know everyone from) I always find
the most amazing things, at incredible prices... then I wake up
*sigh*

My dream involved that I was on my way to some college class [1]
about "gothic fashion design" (taken with other agf'fers, of
course) and was having problems with my Madonna piercing [2]. I had been in
the women's bathroom dealing with it, but realizing that I was late to class,
I grabbed all the jewelry and cleaning supplies and ran to my desk. During
class, I fudged and figited with my jewelry the entire time trying to get the
jewelry to go back in. Some gothic girlie sitting in front of me (don't know
who) was turned around and was trying to help me by trying to direct me to
where the hole in my face was. Uhm, whomever you were in that dream, thanks
for your help. :) As class ended, and I'm still panicked, my professor came
over to the desk to see what was all going on, and mysteriously, my little
piercing pile o' stuff had grown to several threaded beads of all colors and
silver body jewelry of all shapes and sizes scattered about my desk. I was
still really upset about that hole closing up!

In my a.g.f dream I had been visiting some of you
in hospital (I don't know who) when tons of regular folk started running in to
the hospital. When I went to investigate outside everyone was running past me
for cover, their mouths open screaming but in complete silence (not even
footsteps). Seems freaky now but at the time I was fascinated, I followed the
loud banging noises I could hear and spied a demon sunk up to the waist in the
floor throwing furniture around (the visible half was the size of the house!)
I was not at all scared, I just remember thinking how wonderous it all was,
how I must find out what was wrong and help him, and what a shame it was that
you were all in hospital and could not see it.

Jeez, now I'm doing it. I had a dream with AGF
people in it. People I haven't even met! I won't tell you who, though, because
it was a Sream-like slasher dream with Cameron Diaz (a la' My Best Friend's
Wedding) as the knife-weilding killer. But hey, we were dying our hair
black!

The only a.g.f. dream I definitely recall was a
nonspecific makeupwhore dream. I dreamt I went shopping in a department store
and bought lotsa neat makeupstuffs, and thought to myself "now I have to get
home and post about all of this to a.g.f.!".

I was at Walmart? or somesuch, and I picked up some crimpers,
finally... except they weren't crimpers, they were like one of those Playdoh
spaghetti things, where you put the playdoh in, and push on it, and it squirts
out through the little holes... it was weird... and they were green and yellow
(eew). So I bought them, got home, and just HAD to post to
agf about my *lurvely* (gag) new crimpers!

i had the stupidest dream last night. most of it is irrelevant,
but at one point in the dream i sat down to read a.g.f. and
half the posts were about me. and they weren't very nice. everyone was
complaining about how i never say anything helpful or something. of course, in
the dream, i was heartbroken.

I am going to talk about my proposal: a.g.f.
Primer Book. I am met by a representative from a group of concerned mothers
who are connected to the E-group. The E-group has also joined forces with
another group. The woman representative talks to me like I'm on her side (but
I'm not), saying that she's so happy about my idea and she says that the other
group didn't want to do anything until a.g.f. agreed to it.
She adds, conspiratorily, It's easier to steal a company when it's passed on
to you. Now I am in a room facing a.g.f.'ers. The woman
representative introduces me and the topic: a.g.f. Primer
Book. In the group of a.g.f.'ers I recognize Robin from the
TV show General Hospital and . The
a.g.f.'ers are against the E-group people. As I talk, I
realize that the a.g.f.'ers haven't read my proposal post
yet. Robin raises objections, as does . I ask
the a.g.f.'ers to come closer, so I can speak quieter. I say,
No, it's not about ideas, topics, it's like, don't write in capitals because
that's shouting. The other group, not the E-group, does their own
presentation. Multimedia with video. Later, as I walk outside, I whisper to
that the E-group people plan to launch their
own a.g.f. no matter what. I remember hearing Camouflage,
especially the song, "Strangers Thoughts."

And then, on a related but seperate dream, I distinctly remember
being around several agf'ers and everyone was putting on
their makeup, and I was handed a black and also a red eyeliner and I lined my
eyes - black on lower lash line, red on upper, and it was really cool.

i had a dream that i went shopping with you guys
[agf], but EVERYONE was in couples, except me, and that's not
the worst part, eveyone was in *touchy-feely* couples, and so you were all
holding hands and snogging and calling each other pet names *constantly*, and
i had no-one to talk to. but it was okay, because i wandered off on my own and
found a freaky chemist who sold those biore pore strips only they covered your
WHOLE FACE, with little holes cut out for the eyes. which was just ecstatic.

Hmmm, I had a dream about agf people, too! We
were all at a huge block party in NOLA, and I had lost my keys, so had to get
dressed in the bathroom with everyone else- so it fun with glitter time. Up
walks this 7 foot tall completely glam almost drag queen dressed boi and we
all swooned over his well sculpted eyebrows... The last thing I remember was
not wanting to cross the street for fear that I would fall in my new platform
shoes, and the weight of my extra hair.

...I am in a store, like Wal-mart, shopping for the
a.g.f. Giftbasket swap. I pickup a small white stuffed
animal, about $5. It has a brand name, but then I see in a bin all these
stuffed animals for $3.25, bigger than the $5 animal. I select a brown seal
(no brand name) and I think that's good because it covers perkygoff and
gundygoff. As I walk through the store, I notice two big white eyes. As I go
closer, I see they're from a black cat stuffed animal (looks like my BooBean
cat from Eckerds). There's nothing else on the shelf besides the cat. There's
a 8 1/2" x 11" sheet of paper attached to it like it had been returned and
there wasn't a tag anymore. I notice handwritten "Yes" (or "Yes, it does."?)
so I think maybe that's "Yes," for Yes, it's damaged. I look at the paper more
closely. It's questions about the cat's features. The "Yes" is near the line
that asks if it draws back. But the line under that - "Just shrieking" - is
the one that's checked off. I touch the cat's fur. It moves and draws back.

I have received one package for the a.g.f.
Giftbasket swap. Now I see the mail carrier coming to the door because the
boxes are too big for the mailbox. There are two boxes. One box is huge,
moving-box size. There are two bubblewrap envelopes. One is large and plain.
The other is a decorated bubblewrap, like the kinds selling in the post
office. I open one package. It's a journal. Beautiful, but not the right swap,
so I'm thinking, what can I do? Shall I swap this one with the earlier
received, who also sent a journal, obviously misreading the directions? Or
should I write back to the swapper since there's still lots of time left
before the deadline?...

a few nights ago, i dreamt that i had rushed home from a shopping
excursion, eager to post my finds to a.g.f, only to discover
my husband posted something while i was gone (i don't remember exactly what,
only that it was something completely moronic, and everyone was offended by
it), and signed my name to it! when i tried to get on to
a.g.f, a box flashed across my monitor, saying in big,
blinking letters that i had been banned from the newsgroup for life!! of
course, i was heartbroken...

agf was gone....I got an AOL error message. Odd....but my
dreams are always funked up.

I'm in Sweden. I've been here before, enrolled in a program and
now I'm in the same program again. I've forgotten how to access the newsgroups
from here. I want to read a.g.f. I see a room with many
sophisticated computers. There are people scattered about at terminals. I go
in and sit down at a computer, type in at the login
box. A young man watches then goes away. Another young man sits down at the
computer next to mine and reboots mine. He warns me about the first young man,
says that one collects usernames. I log in again. I want to use nn but I don't
remember how this system works. When I backspace, I get screenshots of video
games.

I actually had a dream about a.g.f. Nothing
really interesting of note, just that there were these people around me
talking (and looking absolutely fabu in all their gothic glory [1]) that I
didn't know. I actually had the feeling, both in the dream and after, that I
was imposing on some lovely soiree I shouldn't be at. [1] I felt awfully dull
in my typical black turtleneck, black skirt, and knee hi lace-up combat boots,
while everyone else was dressed to the nines but with the aire of "This ol'
thing?"

I had my first AGF dream last night. I don't
remember who was in it, exactly, but it was a large group of us (seven or
eight, I think) wandering around a series of stores in the DC area, trying on
everything in sight and having a long, drawn out discussion over the
advantages of certain foundations over others.

I dreamed I was getting eye-makeup tips from a.g.f. people.
It was, in that way that only happens in dreams, both like reading the newsgroup and like speaking face to face.
I wanted to know how to make really narrow lines of eyeliner, right next to one another, without smudging one color into the next. I remember that I saw someone with fine black lines closest to her lashes, with bright blue and then black again, blended out to smoky grey shadow. Her lines were so perfectly drawn and the contrast was gorgeous. Someone else (female, long curly black hair with heavy bangs, in a black leather bustier) was helping me put on the eyeliner. Mine was black and dark green, not as vibrant as the blue/black, but it looked beautiful. Thanks to whoever she was, for helping me! ;-)

I had dyed my hair blue. It was a glorious shade, like
cobalt glass with sun shining through it. For some reason
I did a patch of black on one side.
Then my hair faded. The blue looked like a dirty swimming
pool. The black looked dark grey. It was awful and stupid...
but what did I think in my dream?
"I'll ask what to do on alt.gothic.fashion! They'll help me!"

okay, i had a night filled with bizarre dreams, all of which were
halloween/spooky-things related- must've been the three pieces of
jalepeno cornbread i had before bed, lol! in one of them, i was in a
fabric shop which was decorated in dark purples and silver. i
remember being excited that i would finally find some good patterns
and unique fabric. anyway, i went to the back to look in the pattern
books, and found that they had a HUGE three ring binder, separated
with index tabs into sections of patterns, ideas, and projects with
headings like "clothes", "furniture", "paint", etc. everything in the
book was in some way connected to halloween, and i was soooo excited
that most of it could be used year round. i remember turning to my
friend and saying "wow! i can't wait to post on agf about this!!"

Philippe and I have gone to this event. At the second part, we have to go up on high-speed elevators to the top floor. I am scared of this and I have lost Philippe because there are so many people. A lady complains to the elevator operator about how fast the elevator accelerates and he says he can not slow it down, only make it go faster. The elevator zooms up and I feel that gravity. I'm in the center of a crowd of people. I hope that Philippe could find me. He used to find me through alt.gothic.fashion because I'm continually logged on...
