Damn Sleep
Last night, I had a dream my father died. It was a horrible dream. I woke up to find I had tears in my eyes. Isn't REM sleep supposed to stop your body from shit like that?
In the dream I was a kid again. I want to say perhaps somewhere between thirteen to fifteen years old. My parents were still married and my sister was there. In the dream, he died "off camera". Mom told me and I lost it. I was acting like Risu did when Kathleen left with Puff and Pixel the other day. I was unwilling to accept it. I search everywhere for him. I just wanted to hear him say my name.
As dreams go, they take strange tangents. I tried to get my father back. . . by playing the new Super Mario for the Wii. I was trying to collect purple coins. I figured if I got enough, it would bring him back. Yet, everytime I got one, Mario died. Finally, I realized it was impossible and I cried. And I woke up.
So, yeah, I called him today. He's alive and well. He got screwed over by a gas scheme. He is out ~$266 but otherwise, nothing is going on in his life. In fact, things are going pretty well for him.
In other news, I have decided to get a tattoo on my calf. I'm going to get an owl of some kind but I haven't found a design like. Alice thinks it should be a cute cartoonish style owl. Perhaps along the lines of these owls (my suggestion, not hers). Me, the jury is still out. In my universe, Pallas is a screech owl. I'm not sure I want to do something cartoonish but I can't find anything I like so far. Any thoughts?
