Nightmare, 7/2/07
i've been pretty faithful to a dream journal that i started about a month and a half ago - most of the time when i wake up straight out of a dream, i write it down immediately. i haven't been bothering with the ones that aren't exciting or that i don't remember as vividly. so far i've got 12 dreams. here's the second one, unedited.
It was my birthday so I planned a bday party for myself with all my friends + family. I went shopping for an outfit alone and took a looong time picking one out - finally got an ugly vintage dress suit. Went to the river for the family party - I think Bops was there. My friends were there at first but they all went somewhere else because they were bored. Finally I followed them to their party (there were a lot of them). Sam had a big old scroll and it turned out she was partially dead and there was a curse following her. We all went downstairs (we were in a totally different building now), and then the curse affected everyone else and they all started killing themselves in horrible ways. Sam died all the way too. Randall and I were the only ones who didn't die, and in the end we were standing together trying to talk everyone else out of suicide and watching their deaths. Then suddenly it all stopped like a movie, but Randall found the play button and we watched everything else.
they're usually not that sad - in fact that's the only nightmare in here so far. also, when i write them down in the morning, they usually still make sense.
