Three out of five charcoal drawings of my hand done. Two of the contour drawings, one shaded. The shaded one looks kind of weird, because I had to redraw the lines in my hand and accidentally picked up the 6B instead of the 2B to do it. But oh well. I don't care to redo it. The contour drawings are okay. In one of them the fingernails look kinda funky. I sketched it, then sat and waited for my hand to stop twitching, then tried to go over the lines again, but I couldn't figure out how the hell I'd had my hand so that it was posed how I drew it. Thus. Yeah.
Charcoal dust allover. I need to shower.
I had something else to say 'though. Um. Dreamshit. Had a dream, I don't remember much of it. I was in this place -- first I was in this building, and I don't know who I was, but I was in this building and there were these people dressed up as monsters there who would try to scare you; only, some of them were REAL monsters and would kill you if they caught you. I was looking for something, I had a close friend with me. We were wandering the broken down halls in the building -- the level we were on was like a ruin: the walls were crumbling, paint flaking and peeling off in strips, and there was rubble all over. Plants had begun to break through the walls and the floors and were growing all over the place. We ended up in a dead end, and a monster crawled out of a hole where a chunk of the wall should have been. We balked, then I asked if she knew the way to (something) hoping she was a person. She skulked towards us, crouchinglow, and then she stopped and told us where whatever it was actually was. She wondered how we had survived this far. She wondered how we would survive to get there -- we'd need to backtrack a long way, and go around down a different hall. There was an elevator going up. I turned to my friend to leave and found that he was gone -- he had left me there, talking with the 'monster.' Gone off on his own. And I knew he'd make it because he was the strong one. The 'monster' decided to help me out some, 'though. I think she showed me the way. Or she told me how to avoid the real monsters. Or something. Because I got to the elevator and went up. Next floor was bright and well lit, there were no monsters there. There were trees and there was a roof over my head but it looked like a sun shone in the sky. The light was yellow-green and there was a clear fountain in the middle of the floor. There was tile to walk on and everything was very neat, except that in areas water had seeped up through the floor. There was something wrong with the water, I didn't want to touch it. I walked to the other side of the floor, lingered near the fountain, and went on.. Suddenly I was outside and my friend was back. We were in a semi-futuristic looking city, only, some of it wasn't very futuristic. We were near a colliseum -- all sand colored and stone. I was barefoot. We walked to the entrance, but we came up the wrong way and I stepped on something that hurt my foot, left a blister-mark on it. I think it was a bug, because when I looked down there were all these bugs. I think it was poisoned. But my friend didn't care, dragged me to the entrance where there was this person passing out tickets. The person was like a robot. Would just pass out tickets and call out that we should all step right up and get a ticket to go in, and wouldn't answer any questions. We got our tickets and went in.. in was some sort of maze.. dream kinda blurs for a bit here. I remember parts but not enough to really describe. Later, either I'm someone else or I finally realize who I am. I'm a boy with mouse-brown hair, green eyes. My hair's shorter than it is now and less shaggy. Maybe ear-length bangs, and the rest fairly uniform in length and shorter than that. I was with a guy (and in 'with' I'm pretty sure I mean screwing -- we didn't do anything in the dream) that I *think* might have been my friend from earlier. He was angry with me, because I'd gotten annoyed with him for.. something. I can't remember what.. anyway. I was annoyed with him and I decided that I'd get back at him by sleeping with some other guy -- I didn't actually do it, I set up a date, and he had found out about it and started yelling at me. I went to the place we were supposed to meet, which was like.. some sort of castle-temple -- it was all cool and blue and green. I remember my friend/lover was some sort of prince. Or something like that. Someone important. He was also very. Um. Water-element -- he could make ice. Anyway. I went there and he followed me, and I went in the room where I was supposed to meet the other guy and no one was there. The friend/lover followed me in and for some reason made this big ice-crystal form in the back of the room -- the room was dark and it fairly glowed. He seemed smug about that, like THAT proved his point (whatever that was.) He talked some then, kind of came onto me, and then I said something, rebuked I think, and he got pissy and left. I didn't really want to piss him off so I followed.. and then this yellow light hit the both of us and we were transported elsewhere. I had closed my eyes when it hit, and I opened them to find I was alone in the colisseum. The place had been crowed in my first visit, but now it was empty save for the ticket person and the bugs. I was afraid, because I was alone and the light had taken my lover too, but he wasn't there so it must have left him elsewhere.. And I was worried and nervous and afraid and all of that goodstuff, and I think I decided that I would go find him. I went to the ticket person, avoided the bugs, and got a ticket to go inside. I think I'd just gotten past the ticket person when--The alarm went off. ><
Pretty interesting dream, 'though. Seemed worth noting.
Anyway. That's it. I gotta go get this charcoal off me.
