2-23

A. was lost in the forest. people were telling me I was at fault for him being gone but I didn't understand why

2-22

dreamt I was pet sitting for celebrities at a large house owned by a lady who was making a lot of soup and rice. I didn't see any celebs themselves, but knew who the pets belonged to as they walked up to the house from a floral maze in the back yard garden. D***** T****'s dogs & cats were scared and shy. Michael Jordan had large friendly dogs and a giant cat. it was like a long haired house cat, but the size of a bear. I walked up to pet it & it licked me over my whole hand with a sandpaper tongue. it snapped at me, but with a friendly yet unpredictable tone like my cat does irl. it still made me nervous but I had to keep my vibes calm so the cat would trust me. it stared at me from across the room and smiled as Michael Jordan's dogs buried me on a couch. then I was playing guitar for them all. I was also hired to tune instruments and DT had an instrument that resembled a Quatro but with 5 strings & a very stupid tuning of low-to-high E, D, G, A-flat, C.

2-20

woke up thinking "sound is fragile here. sleep is fragile to sound"

Dream: A introduced R & I to many people. Apartment was ground level and had open walls to the outside. I tried making popcorn but I spilled it everywhere. The kernels before they were popped. we all walked around and through surrounding homes. no streets, just buildings and grass and trees. some were fruit tress. all the persimmons that were ripe had been taken and the bitter ones were left so I didn't touch them. I found that one of A's friends had picked the good ones and was sharing them around. she gave me one and it was sweet and perfumy. I followed some people to a library nearby that was dimly lit and mysterious. there was a hole that lead to downstairs that was closed off by a cat on a purple cushion blocking the way. I tried to move the cat, but a librarian said that downstairs was closed and it was all children's books anyway. a shattering happened and I ran back and found that I'd left a glass salt shaker on a hot burner. the salt was hot everywhere over the stove.

2-1 thru 2-19

dreamt I was sitting at the counter of a Cafe with elementary school friend ES. she was an adult and I felt nervous but excited to become friends with her again. she left to use the bathroom and I saw that her name was on a list of people receiving a new DI box in the mail today. I became excited for her. when she came back, I couldn't hold the secret and told her and she was happy but didn't know what a di box was. I told her it would be good for her music set up if she toured. she laughed and we started hugging and then kind of wrestling and pulling on each other's arms. I felt happy that she was so comfortable around me so quickly after not seeing each other since elementary.

dreamt I left a big place I was living to stay somewhere else for a while and when I came back, it was a punk house. i hung outside in ahammock with friends to watch the symphony but katydids fell all over us until we turned on this sound repellant. I was excited to see how the space had changed- but felt kind of devastated when I saw some of the destruction that had happened. no one cleaned up anywhere, many things were smashed and broken. I kept telling people it was fine but I felt wrecked. I had worked on building this place up with Mrs bush my 3rd grade teacher and she arrived and I talked to her about how sad I was about it. she let me know it made sense to be sad because of all the work we had put in. I decided to tidy one room that I had stayed in in particular and leave for good. many things had been smashed. antiques I didn't really care about, but felt sad they were gone.

there was a giant cool room with a pool & tall rocks in the middle. people there were panicking about the landlord coming. I decided to get out and avoid him. took a train out. the train was full. we passed by him but I evaded his sight

dreamt I read this guy's blog about mushrooms. launched myself, paragliding with someone's dog to go find him at Einstein former home. the dog got hurt (small cut on his side) on landing and I felt bad. I finally found the guy and he told me his experiences with his research and the legal trouble he got into. he took off before I could ask questions.

later I was at my friends dorms. LC and RB and les and IO. I wanted them to read the article I had read. they were excited to see the dog, but didn't seem like they had time to read the article or that they were very impressed by how I'd come to meet the author. I was on the dl, hiding because I stole the dog and launched off illegally7

taking trains going west, couldn't get caught, cops thing were going east

gave cpr to a kid and thru came back

meet two hoppers in the mountains. we took care of each other and camped. the guy taught me some rock climbing grappelimg

dreamt M had braids. she and D were separated. I lived in a home for kids without families and punks. I was upset when someone who assaulted me in college moved in. I helped a lady with cancer make dandelion root and chicory coffee. I tasted the first batch for her, brewed in a glass jar. and it was so earthy and warm.

dream

was on a big mountain, telling someone where the best pedestrian bridges were. the one we were on was busy and crowded. I took them to the next one down that had fewer people and they were doing coniferous tree research underneath on every species. then I started to get heckled and I saw it was 2 guys I was friends with. a tall guy with dark hair and an older balding Russian man. I went to talk to them but they were chased off by cops and I ran off too.

2nd dream:

was in a classroom & left to go make copies of something. the copier was in another rowdier class. there was a child there wearing the same outfit as me, jean shirt and same sweater, but she was running around & seemed checked out. I couldn't figure out the copier and was worried the teacher would get mad at me, but she wasn't and helped me. I left and was in a train station waiting for the subway. it was underground in kc and I was mad that the trains only seemed to run on random days. I had to use the bathroom but I was worried the train would come and go without me
