What a Dream

2/27

  Very different and interesting dream tonight, it started at Slippery Rock where I was living in a dormitory with Ron. I was a blonde and wore a long hot pink skirt. I had left for my night classes, either grad school or post grad, and passed a burned out recreational building, long and rectangular like a gym. I ran into a couple of brothers, white boys in their twenties with short brown hair. For some reason, unbeknownst to me, I was hiding under a tarp in a boat with the younger of the two who also now had a punched nose. Then I was back with them both. We walked across a campus green. I took two joints from a silver cigarette case from my green tapestry flood bag that I bought in North Carolina and used for years when I taught. The one joint was very loose and badly rolled which I apologized for. The older one was very friendly, and I was supposed to join them somewhere but was separated with a young dark haired woman on the lawn in front of a small office building. That’s when a woman came out, campus police, or something, and started hounding me over my id. The young woman ran off, spooked. I was amiable with the woman and digging through my bag. There wasn’t much in the bottom, just some old ids, none of which suited the woman. I joined her in the office where the younger brother with the punched nose was sitting in a cubicle getting interviewed by an older man. I rushed past them into the back explaining that I could not be seen by Mr. Punched when a heavy set man with greasy dark hair wearing a black suit and glasses joined me and another fellow saying that it was alright. It would be hush hush. I told them that I was in with Ike. Now an older woman was fussing over me. She grabbed me in the crotch. There was another girl with a buzz cut wearing black pinstripe tights and a short denim skirt. This woman did not trust or care for Miss Buzz Cut. Her grown son dressed in black and wearing a black hat came into the building led by a thirteen year old shepherd mix on a leash. I was petting the dog. Like his mother he backed into me and poked me in the crotch, only more subtly than his mother had done. There now was a big fuss about me in the back around a long conference table. I felt as if the entire ordeal was a run around, and that all of these people were inept. A blonde woman basically said that I had to go. The man in charge, slender in a white shirt and black glasses with more slimy black hair told her, “You’d be shitting your pants if Floyd flirted with you.” I was beginning to ascertain that they wanted the older brother for something, something big. Burning down the campus building? I did not know. I was losing my patience with the lot of them. Up until this point they all were very impressed by how calm I had remained. I gathered that they planned on using this against Floyd. I told them that I had missed class. I was fed up with them all and asked them if this was their usual shit show. Mr. In Charge said that did not matter that I worked for them now. He asked me who my hero was. I started thinking and becoming lucid. I told them that I had no hero or love for the Fuckers Butting In nor the Commie Infiltration Agency, that I did not like the government or the presidents besides Eisenhower when I woke up. After jotting down my notes in my dream book, (I turned on the light this time, so that I could make them out.), I fell into other little bouts of sleep where I was in the same dream, and there were piles of white paper on a desk in the same office.

Look at this silly kitty, he's been so bad. Up to page 135 in Dana's Dreams Two, already. It might be the Native American in me. I certainly am a dreamer. 🌜🌝🌛

Doc Holliday | Full Western Movie


  Frankie is in his rocking Archie Bunker chair, and I've got some pear cider and Malbec. I like mixing them with some pomegranate seeds for fun. I'm sort of over the moon. Doc Holliday is a hero of mine. I wrote a paper on him in grad school. I was the only girl in the class. Of course I got an A. I still see my professor on The History Channel now and then. Doc deserves a novel. Maybe after Fanging with Claude

Jelly Roll Morton - The Pearls (1988)


More inspiration for Fanging with Claude. Up to page eighty, I'm having a ball. I used to have this cd. Bought it on a trip to Volant with Mummy and her girlfriend Sandy when I was in college as an undergrad. It's fab. ♯ Bought my Handel boxed set in the same store as well as a small violin that I sold along with a doll, Cricket, who now resides in New Zealand. He was inspired by a Lenci I saw at auction. Speaking of which, I can't locate Klink's violin or swagger stick for O, My Ra! The set is decorated for Halloween, I'm getting there. I 💗 Enid Sinclair, so glad I scored her. Her claws and shoes are fangtastic.

Dreams 4/18

 

Had a nightmare all day I couldn't shake. It took place in Slippery Rock, but as usual with dreams it was more like Fredricksburg. Mummy had sent me to get my car fixed and also to pay a man out in the country some money we owed him. I parked my car in a lot alongside a tavern, it looked like an old stable. For some reason when I got out of my car I took off my little brown leather flats and left them with some other shoes in the lot then proceeded into the tavern in my stocking feet. I knew a girl who worked there, and she gave me a bunch of strange homeopathic remedies. She was telling me what they were for. The place was dim and dusty, and when I went back out to my car dusk was gathering fast, and I could not find it or my shoes. I was looking all around, tavern to tavern. The place was full of alleys that were a bit like a brick labyrinth, or so it seemed to me, lost and confused. One proprietor, a fellow with dark hair, seemed to think I was a little crazy. I might've been because I would get fed-up looking, wake myself, then fall back into the same dream. At one point I thought I found my shoes only they were huge, not mine. I was thinking I was going to be late paying the blonde man who lived out in the boonies and was going to have to walk home in my socks. I entered yet another old bar, a woman with short dark hair was trying to talk me into drinking with her, but I refused. I never did find my shoes or my car.

Dreams 2/19


Dreamt I was back at Slippery Rock, but it was entirely different. For one thing it was in Oakland, so it was more like Pitt. I was in a huge glass building which was supposedly the library. The dean was there only he was a young man with dark hair. I was looking for something, but couldn't find it. The dean had his feet up on a table. I was looking and looking. The dean moved upstairs and was sleeping on a table. I stole my enormous file and stuffed it into my old mahogany colored leather bag which I still have only one of the straps has split. It was very heavy, and I was having a hard time with the weight. I slipped out a back side glass door, thinking I might be alright, but still, tripped an alarm, and security was after me. I made it down the concrete steps and was moving through Oakland as fast as I could beneath my burden, taking the back streets. I thought I'd finally found my car, the trunk was popped, but it was another guy's, only same make and model. I was still looking for my car and sweating when Shiner woke me.
