Dreams from 2012-2013 0_0 (part 1)
Found a notebook with a few transcriptions of dreams I had years ago.

I am cleaning out my art room as I’ve mentioned a few times, and I found an entire stack of journals, sketchbooks, and writings. I am going to share a couple of dreams from late 2012 to early 2013 that I had in my school notebook. I thought these were sort of funny, and I want to make a digital copy of them somewhere. This is only one page of dreams. I have a bunch more, some of it is kind of boring, but these were amusing, I thought. I am going to copy the entries exactly, so if they seem weird and fragmented, it’s because I was pretty whacked out when I copied these down. This is before I was on the correct medications, and also when I was having a lot of sleep disturbances.
DREAMS
The title of this page reads, “SYMBOLS TO MAKE PIECES- BELOW RAMBLING”

Dennis Rodman wakes up and finds himself in the middle of a strange desert world. Dennis Rodman wakes up and finds himself in the middle of a strange desert world. He then starts a quest to determine where he has been transported to, which unfolds across a series of ten intense graphic novels. He discovers the origins of humanity and all the secrets of the magical world he has been transported to. In the epic final pages, sweat runs over his brow as he realizes finally where he is. He realizes he has been captured inside pop singer Madonna’s vagina. This explains his absence from the basketball world and the real world. By the time he realizes where he is and escapes, Madonna has reached the age of 118 years old through modern science and medicine in the year 2020. The power of Rodman’s bravery and determination not only kept him alive but also helped her survive. (This dream was in live action and would break into animated or static illustrations. I was very aware it was a comic and somehow it was a movie at the same time.)

102.5 FEVER -
*Long series of fever dreams in which my band is tricked into playing a gig that is actually a gospel concert. My band is the open act, but it ends up being very awkward.*
Later lost in a strange town where my car could be stolen by hooligans @ any moment. My middle sister C is there as well. We end up outside the town at a farmhouse where my design teacher asks me and C to dig into the dirt during a house party. We discover pots, skulls, and artifacts. She says she has a place to put them. She explains that in town there is a large Natural History museum. Her (teacher) wife keeps telling me things my mother has said about me, such as “Because your red box with a stag on it, your mother cannot go to college. You are costing her too much.”
I feel exhausted but also embarrassed that my mother is spreading lies about me. She (the teacher’s wife) keeps telling me things, a conversation which ends with her telling me a message she received on the phone from my mother: “Grandpa Harrington 3141.”
I know this is not good news. C rolls her eyes. She is right, mother is wasting people’s time. We need to leave. After all, we dug up a lot of crap, and at this point, I’m still feeling sour that my agent misrepresented the gig my band had earlier. After a dizzying search through town for my car, we ended up stealing a car. C makes a deal with a local gang. We drive around, but we simply cannot find our way out of the town. We ditch the car and head off on foot. C and I cannot leave the damn town. It feels like we are going in circles. There are no Starbucks, there are no soda machines. My thirst is a beast that is growing and angry and red. We end up at the Natural History Museum…. and we push them out of the way, dirt still on our hands. We wander through the museum. I wake up after many aisles of mammoth skulls.
—-> When I wake - rainy- very bad ominous feelings all around. Work on building and decorating my dollhouse- Watch the psychic vampire, Tyra Banks, season 16. It’s terrible, I mean VERY BAD. These girls want to destroy each other, but I’m sure it’s just editing.
*I wish all I saw was cats. Every day, all day…Cat’s eyes. :D

Population to paper triangles. All the world's population turns from human to paper triangles. The story follows these four different colored triangles. When the yellow and green young triangles investigate different areas of the large outdoor environment, they live in. When they go over a waterfall, a white triangle with a red circle on it flies in and says, “You are out of the allowed range, restricted area.” Eventually, after flying around and a Tron-like color sequence, the triangles figure out all the secrets. I don’t remember what the secrets were. But I felt very moved when I woke up. I cried about it for three hours.
LOL, I just felt like sharing something silly! Hope you enjoyed it. Have a great day, and I’ll be sending out the next chapter of Innocence and Fear soon!
