Graduate from what?
Aug 3rd
I had the weirdest quick yet most vivid dream around 4 am.
machinegirl and was driving a red convertible with the top down and we were going down a normal street, probably Mill or Rural by her place. Normal. She says, “Garrett says as soon as I graduate he’ll finally introduce me to his friends” and suddenly the world literally ends. Like at the end of Langoliers where there’s just nothing there at the edge and you drop off into space? Yeah. We drop off, it’s all black, we fall out of the car, dropping and she’s still talking normal (but I can’t understand her) and we’re dropping into nothingness.
I woke up, heart pounding and sitting straight up. Never done that before.
And no, I didn’t even take one of those pills yet.

I just had an interesting dream.
cavaticat and I had a threesome with Johnny Depp.
As Captain Jack Sparrow.
And he was just like I remembered him.
Even Cat was impressed.
I’m Playing for Keeps.
Jan 14th
I had a dream last night where I was the parent of Keepsie when she was maybe two years old. The whole teaching her to share – being even more important considering her power – and my tone of voice, first asking her to give back Bobby’s toy, then sterner Give Back Bobby’s Toy, then downright insistent and so forth. Which turned – as dreams do – into I was writing a parenting book for parents of special children with not-so-super powers. And then I had a superpower where if I look someone in the eye, they are paralyzed for approximately 30 seconds. I had to wear tacky mirrored sunglasses so I wouldn’t like, cause car crashes (accidental eye contact with other drivers, oops!) and I would have to lower my sunglasses whenever I did want my powers to work – such as on recalcitrant children.
Of course, awakening only started the whole would that be a real superpower or just a not-so-special third wave power argument in my head. I couldn’t remember if these characters had their powers as children or if they got them at puberty or later. Imagine poor Ian getting mad at someone on the playground.
All this must mean I need to purchase the book. Another story I’m better off reading because I just can’t retain enough hearing it verbally.
But if hearing a story is good enough for you, by all means. Go subscribe to Playing for Keeps written and performed/recorded by my good friend Mur Lafferty, otherwise known as sailormur.
