This morning I woke up in a sweat and ran to the bathroom. of course, the heat and my wanting to pee incredibly bad had made for a wonderful nightmare. sooo... here it is:
Alright, so I don't remember much of what happened before I had actually looked in the mirror... but this dream is a second parter. That's right... it's the chilling sequel to a dream I had earlier this month and thought nothing of.
In the first dream I went to my buddy Neal to get more tattoos and so I tell him to do what he thinks is best, but I definitely want a bottle of Tabasco hot sauce in there - WHAT THE FUCK? So he goes to town on my back I'm enduring through all this pain and right when he says, "alright, go ahead and take a look!" I WAKE UP.
okay, so fast forward a couple of weeks to last night and I'm dreaming. This time all I can remember is me looking in the mirror and seeing the fucking worst thing I could have possibly imagined. Actually, I have no idea - really - where this came from. Not only that, but I have no idea how I could have even... like IMAGINED this at all. But I look at my back in the mirror and, no joke, he has covered it in the most outrageous collection of disney themed shitty tattoos. He had tattooed JESUS CHRIST giving the buddy christ thumbs up, a Daffy Duck themed water fountain complete with glitter and sea shells/starfish, and even more Rose Parade Float-worthy concepts.
So, in my sleep I start to PANIC horrendously. I start taking in huge breaths and hyperventilating. I finally wake up and I actually say, "oh dear god... it was all just a dream... a terrible, terrible dream". I even went to pee and looked at my back in the mirror just to make super duper double sure.
Becky, please tell me what this all means!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, I've been bookbinding. Yes, that's right, I've been giving other programs on campus shots. Although I love to bind books, I haven't fallen completely IN LOVE with it. But, I could definitely see how someone can devote a four year BFA with a concentration to it. So far I'm digging on fibers all around and I'm pretty stuck on it. However, ceramics is becoming more and more fun. Next couple weeks should be incredibly relaxing seeing as to how I only have a few classes.
Here are some really fun pictures of some of my life and goings on:
Okay, so this is Becca (my sister) lounging about when I went home for the quick Independence day holiday.
Arson, Becky, & Terry all chillin and laughin it up at Palermo's.
My dogs... this was actually before their apparent marital problems. They don't sleep close to each other anymore. Cud-Cud likes to sleep in the bathroom on top of all my dirty clothes when I'm home - SPECIFICALLY. Sasha sometimes does the same thing. (Sasha=Grey, Cud-Cud=Tan)
One of the many incredible pictures of my sister.
My friends Kela and Paul. Kela is an amazingly spiritual being. She is incredibly evocative and smart. Paul is the same but specifically a great lamp artist, he is also a great t-shirt collector.
This is the lamp that Paul custom made for me. He buys hand made paper and it takes him about two weeks to form it over these black dowels that are painted black and puts the light cord in it. He leaves the top open to keep it from overheating and so you can shove a hand down there to change the bulb. This picture doesn't do it justice though. It truly makes my room look like this very inviting burlesque room. It gives it that last bit of pure eroticism that I so sorely need in my life... even if it is through parent friendly inanimate objects.
Here is some detail on the texture of the lamp's paper shade. As a textural person, I can tell you - this, in itself, is breathtaking.
I'm sorry it takes so long for me to post, but to be honest - everytime I post they're pretty long. So we can basically apply the idea that, sure they're few and far between, but that's what makes you desire them even more. Love you girls.

Don't you just hate those "to be continued dreams"? They never seem to turn out the way you want. ALWAYS a sweaty, heaving, nightmare! Sorry, my sweet...
Your lamp gift is incredible! How beautiful..What a thoughtful friend. Can't wait to see photo's of your school projects.
Miss you! keep safe, Love Lisa
those freakin dreams scare the crap out of me... mostly because of the whole "oh thank god it's over" and then it comes back!
i miss you SOOOO much
To see Jesus in your dream, is often believed that the dreamers goals and greatest desires will be realized.
Christ giving you the thumbs up, in my opinion, can only be a good thing. Was it the Buddy Christ from Dogma? To see Christ represents perfection with yourself and your spirituality.
Cartoon characters are harder because it really depends upon who or what they represent to you. We don't take cartoon characters seriously in our waking life.
What I find hysterical is that you dreamed of Daffy Duck who is such a prankster. He hates rodents. He bouncing off walls and is extremely annoying with is hoo hoo hooing.
He's not very politically correct either. Like the time he took a job as a guard at a Mexican chocolate factory, and then the mice get Speedy Gonzales to help.
Ironically Daffy Duck and Sylvester cat have the same voice. Daffy is Sylvester only played back faster than could ever be recorded. And we all know Sylvester is famous for his "Thuffering Thuckotash" line which I'm sure is what your next tattoo should be. Yep, Lima beans and corn is what this dream is all about. Have you been eating regularly?
Or, your dream shows you to be a very secure, creative and irreverent human being with a lisp.
