(no subject)
I had the strangest dream last night. I was at my computer, and AIM was behaving really obnoxiously, not doing what I told it to with the windows, and for some strange reason they had acquired a background, and wouldn't let me see anything else very well, but I was working on other things, and really didn't want to restart the computer. However, as I was writing this, Nicole walked into the room, and I realized I was still asleep, and this was just a dream, so I woke up, and walked over to meet her. I had only been napping, and was dressed, and she wanted to go somewhere, so I was straigtening up, and then we were heading out to meet people. She said, "I have to tell you what happened this afternoon." There were other parts of the dream that I had been having that I no longer remember, and I wanted to tell it to her, but just as we were starting to walk out the door, I realized that I had been half dreaming all those actual movements, and, in fact, Nicole was actually still waiting by my bed for me to actually get up. So, I forced myself out of bed, and started getting ready. Then, she said, "I have to tell you what happened this afternoon." I thought that was weird, so I became more interested in telling her about my dream. However, she was telling me about something having to do with this club showcase we were participating in. I don't really know what club we were doing this for, as it seemed to involve much but not all of bispace, as well as Nicole, and a few others, I think Nat and Barak were there, and John was either part of it, or just with me. The showcase was this interesting thing where all the performing clubs got up and performed, and all the others got up and did weird stuff, often mock performance. Like, for some reason, the chess club had skis on wheels, and were skiing very slowly around the pole to bad '50s music. I snuck on there and joined them even though I wasn't technically part because I thought it would be funny. However, our club had no idea what we were going to do, but, I really wanted to tell people about my dream, so I kept telling people, and being interrupted, and we decided to do that as a skit because we thought it was funny, with people helping act out my dream as I told it. Also, the vampire Larp from SPRAL was there, which is the group I roleplayed with in Bellingham. Which was odd, as this all was definitely happening at Brandeis. However, I couldn't be part of it, because I wasn't a member anymore, since I was at Brandeis. This showcase had apparently happened last year too, and John (my b/f, who was here in the dream) and I were discussing the characters in SPRAL's show last time. Apparently last year they just did a skit using their actual characters from game. We were mostly discussing Simon's (from Bellingham, not Brandeis) character's performance, and anayzing it for thoughts about his game behavior. So, we went on, and did our performance, and apparently it was really funny, because we got a really good audience response. Afterwards, we went back to my room, and I was trying to do something on the computer, but it was being disagreeable. Then, Nicole walked into the room, and woke me up, and said, "I have to tell you what happened this afternoon." My response was, again, that this is really weird, and I wanted to tell her about y dream, but then, as she was telling me about her day, I thought about the showcase (that was still happening that night), and told her I had a great idea for the showcase from the dream. So, when we got to the group, I started telling them about it, and we agreed to do it, the showcase was a little different this time, but I don't remember details. Later there was something about Nosferatu, but that probably had to do with the fact that I was reading about them before I went to sleep. Then, I woke up in the coolest way I've ever woken, which was, that I felt like I was zooming in on the world, not visually, but intangibly, and it slowly zoomed into near focus, and then my eyes opened, and I was actually awake . . . or am I?
